Open source router firmware project OpenWrt ships its own repairable hardware
theregister.comThat is great news. I have been using OpenWrt for many years on a number of devices. Selling it for less then 100 USD with casing is a fair price.
Yes, but, also, things don't go in isolation.
This $89.00 price requires extra $14.42 for slow shipping. Not to mention, that the official place to buy this from, reports that "this item is no longer available". They're getting all this free PR, but they can't even get this shit together to have the ordering page work properly! It even has links to images which don't exist.
