security of OpenWRT vs Tomato? OpenWrt has a up-to-date Kernel. We try and be as safe as we can from first boot. We make you set your password to get up and running so no crappy passwords from the start. wifi is turnd off on boot so you don't get a unsafe wifi network with no security. The firewall is set up with a small rule set to be as safe as it can. The webinterface can be installed with https We have lots of packages to be even safer. BCP38, addblock, banip, dnscrypt, several proxy servers and dns over https. I would not run Tomato? on a router in 2020 it runs with old Kernels and old packages. Disclaimer: I am not a OpenWrt dev I just help out around the place like on Twitter forums PS if any one needs help pleas come to the forums we will help out as best as we can. Some people think that OpenWrt has devs that are not very tolerant. I can tell you that this is not true. there was a bug in LUCI the webinterface that made it hard to use with my screen reader I asked about it on irc and it was fixt in 3 hours.
