The Fritzbox OS might have it flaws, but compared to other commercial SOHO routers, the software is excellent. And this solely refers to the web interface and number of features available for all non-techy people while stille covering many needs of the techy ones. Of course, if you are an expert, OpenWRT will give you all the flexibility you need. And you know what? It's easy to flash a Fritzbox with OpenWRT :)
- klingonopera 7y agoWhich manufacturers offer less on the software side compared to AVM then? All I can think of are the ones that you're given to by your ISP. Every other 3rd party router I've come across has at least the same configurability as AVM's solutions (went with Netgear, D-Link, Zyxel, Huawei, now TP-Link and happily stuck). EDIT: Lol, do you work for them or something?
- ktpsns 7y agoLucky you -- I frequently have to deal with routers given by the ISP which are basically non-configurable. Examples are the Vodafone Easybox 904x (just tried to put OpenWRT on this box last week and failed after several hours to get the Wifi running) or the Technicolor 7200 which is shipped by Unitymedia in Germany by default. Both are really bad devices. The companies you are refering to do in fact better products (both in terms of software and hardware).
