New router with OpenWrt compatibility out of the box! It’s a fork, but of what I am reading it’s similar approach to GL.iNet routers with little work to flash a vanilla version.
I think I would rather spend a little more and get official hardware, with guaranteed ongoing support and no mystery blobs.

no mystery blobs.
Maybe they’re not “mystery blobs,” but I think you still need binary blobs with MediaTek chips. I’d be happy to be proven wrong though!
I can’t seem to find where to buy the OpenWRT One or when it’s going to ship.
Already found that. Still can’t buy it, still not shipping. 😂
They outlined processes of what happens next since vote was approved on 1-17-2024. According to this, I dont expect anything until end of year or next year before product is ready to be sold
and three Gigabit Ethernet ports (in addition to an RJ45 input).
Wut 🤣
They probably meant WAN port.

Well there’s a SoC maker I haven’t heard of before!
…When tf did Banana Pi come out? I have a whole new option for SBCs now?? Dope.
They have been around for a little while now. Had one in college ~4 years ago. Upstream kernel support was a little rough but spec wise they were impressive alternatives to the RPi 3B
I’ve got multiple Orange Pi’s. They are pretty nice.
This is interesting. A few questions though.
How hackable is it? Are other distros or OSes devs going to be able to get their system ported to it? Seeing Debian, Gentoo, NetBSD, or OpenBSD on this would be pretty cool.
Armbian lists several BPi boards as supported. Has anyone run Armbian on the BPi stuff?
I have, but it was one of the very old bananas. Should dig out out sometime.
It is any good?
It’s very much budget option.
Would you personally recommend it?
I didn’t use or have one, just sharing because I found this interesting and maybe others already would have something to say about the spec.
Tbh looks interesting, I will check more info online, thx for the post mate 👍👍
