@lutindiscret @linux @homelab We still have some MOXes left 😉 Problem with entry-level is that we are manufacturing in small batches in EU and we are making hardware that is meant to last. So we can't really get to "entry level", but since we can't make it cheap, we are trying to provide high-performance and make it worth it.
I would heavily recommend just getting a router that supports OpenWRT, there's loads of choice, but for entry level I would suggest TP-Link Archer C7.
If you don't care about wifi, the Cisco Meraki MX65 has 12 ports and is very cheap right now.
I really want to love Turris ever since they announced their first product. Unfortunately they are absolutely overpriced and there are more cost-effective solutions that I prefer.
€420 isn't crazy for a 10gbps Wifi 7 router. A quick search tells me the Arris G54 is about that price and only 3.1gbps.
EDIT: Just realized the G54 is a modem/router combo.
EDIT 2: And the Turris €420 version doesn't have Wifi
The €420 version doesn't have a WiFi radio. UniFi's version of this is €250: https://eu.store.ui.com/eu/en/category/cloud-gateways-compact/collections/cloud-gateway-fiber/products/ucg-fiber?c=PT
I mean, I can get a Ubiquity for under €270: Link
I've also just learned about the Alta Labs Route10: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BTs9HyZhZPU
The OpenWrt Two is also expected to be under 300€: https://openwrt.org/voting/2025-02-12-openwrt-two
There's also the Quantum Fiber W1700K with preliminary OpenWrt support for just €100 O.O
(460 + VAT is above of 550 monies to get wifi 7 included)
~~€420 is the price with VAT already.~~
Nevermind, the wireless version is €550 incl. VAT.
Aren't most routers powered by Linux?
OPNsense and pfSense are pretty popular and are BSD-based.
Starting around €420. Not terrible for the specs I guess.
25Gbps plz?
