Why are some of their devices EOL if they use OpenWRT?
- suprjami 4y agoBecause companies don't make the same product forever. Why aren't Ford making the Model T anymore? Why aren't Viewsonic making CRT monitors anymore? etc
- tmikaeld 4y agoOf course I didn't mean hardware EOL, that I understand, but why discontinue software updates then?
- suprjami 4y agoBecause they're a business, not a charity. They also do this the right way and upstream device support before they sell the device, so they don't have to support it. Upstream OpenWrt are already doing it.
