Every one had a .ru domain. How do you know, exactly, who built it? GL.inet builds their own WRT package. It's a "feature".
- rekabis 2y ago> Every one had a .ru domain. Brand-new to the Internet, are ya? Just because you cherry-pick Russian informational sites doesn’t mean that third-party firmwares have any connection to Russia whatsoever. Third-party firmwares are open-source projects, worked on by tens of thousands of volunteers from around the planet, and frequently have ZERO CONNECTION to any one hardware manufacturer. There are some collaboration efforts, when a particular manufacturer decides to adopt an open-source firmware as the exclusive firmware for their own hardware, but that simply means the hardware is fully unlocked for any third-party firmware that wants to be adapted for that hardware. These manufacturers just decided that they had no desire to f**k over the consumer by locking them into custom-made firmware. For example, I believe Turris https://www.turris.com/ https://www.turris.com/ takes a stock, latest copy of OpenWRT and makes a few tweaks to extend its capabilities for additional, server-like features.
