Interesting -- this is basically the merger of an Arduino Leonardo and a pocket router. The flavor of Linux in use is a spinoff from OpenWRT, a popular home router OS. The chip that runs on is the Atheros AR9331. Since OpenWRT supports other languages, you can now program this device in Python.

- zdw 13y agoAgreed. The Atheros chips tend to be much better supported - you actually get non-binary blob wireless drivers, which is a big problem with Broadcom-based devices like the venerable Linksys WRT54G and similar. OpenWRT is quite nice, and ships with a Lua based web interface, which is ideal for a low memory/CPU device like a router.
