- VorpalWay 3mo agoSource? A cursory check on their website shows a Hong Kong and a US address. Some people seem to be claiming mainline China associations as well, which could be true, can't find anything on that in either direction. But Israeli, no can't find that. Sure you didn't confuse it with some other company?
- Aspos 3mo agoApologies, you are right.
- mike_d 3mo agoIt looks like the person you replied to deleted their comment, but I assume it was about GL-iNet being a Chinese company. They have a tiny Hong Kong office that handles marketing as well as a US office for technical support, but the entirety of engineering and manufacturing is in Shenzhen and Chengdu. Because they provide a hosted site-to-site VPN service they are obligated to hold a B13 license. One of the conditions of which is the ability for the Chinese government to request access to devices worldwide.
- VorpalWay 3mo agoThat is interesting (and I recommend you flash stock openwrt instead, I did on mine). But no, the parent comment I replied to claimed Israeli / IDF connections.
- floralhangnail 3mo agoI bought one of their travel routers to play with and even though it's OpenWRT based, I consider it Chinese firmware because they add their own stuff on top of it. The fact that it's even possible that it can be enrolled in their GoodCloud remote access....no thanks. I consider it an untrusted device except when I have stock OpenWRT on it. I know it's paranoia but companies like that marketing to the tech crowd/devs especially now with their KVM's just seems slightly fishy.

- Aspos 3mo agoMy apologies. I must have confused them with someone else.
