I got a TP-Link Tri-Band BE9700 WiFi 7 Router (Archer BE600)
I cannot give a review yet as it sits wrapped in the original plastic wrap.
It wasn't on the DD-WRT or OpenWRT compatibility lists yet, but it did have its WRT firmware source code released on the official website, so presumably it was just too new.
If risk adverse, I would recommend looking at the DD-WRT and OpenWRT compatibility lists and choosing from those. Some of the slightly older TP-Link Archer models were on there.
Nice. Those are rock solid.
There are others in the Archer line which are compatible. I have an Archer I don't use because it wasn't on the list when I found it but it was $5 and used broadcom or realtek chipset.
I think a lot of them work even if not on the list, it is just that the work-for-handouts open source devs haven't tested it
To me, as long as it isn't locked down, and the firmware has been GPLed, that at least means they won't do anything too horrible on their built in firmware, like the guy above was saying you had to use an app to configure his Netgear router.
Yeah it uses the chipsets that are most likely supported but the problem is having a valid firmware which can bypass the security checks such as checksum and other verification. Most likely the funtion calls will be identical to other models in the series.
I used to develop in busybox.
