>Wow, he's right about the shape of the router. It also looks like it forces the ethernet cable in front if you want to be able to see the LED, and the cable itself is pointed downward: https://cdn.hackaday.io/images/8430831598574092393.jpg https://cdn.hackaday.io/images/8430831598574092393.jpg
I'm not sure the image you link is a fair representation of the router. The one he actually shows is SIGNFICANTLY shorter/smaller/wider and honestly while it's similar it's a different shape.

- tyingq 6y agoHrm, okay. Linked to a different image that shows the shape from two different aspects.
- walrus01 6y agoI have one and it's really light weight and prone to tipping over, it was only used for five minutes during the initial setup. Based on some people who found the serial pins and watched its booloader it's based on a customized openwrt, the circuit board is pretty basic. there's some good shots in here of the router removed from its enclosure: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ObCTB8ol3Ng https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ObCTB8ol3Ng it doesn't seem much more complicated to me than the PCB of something like a mikrotik hap ac2 ($65), based on simplicity I'd say it's like a $40-50 router BOM, max.
