Interesting product; but at $125, a bit rich for me.
I was just thinking of putting together a router using a RasPi. What's the best way to get 802.11 a/b/c/g/n/* capability? Should I use 2 USB dongles, one for "g" and the other for the rest?
- wmf 12y agoPersonally I would never do something that kludgey. I bought whatever CeroWRT recommended for $50 refurb.
- blacksmith_tb 12y agoThe RPi is running eth0 and usb over the same bus, which makes it a bad choice for rolling your own router. Other than the fun of understanding how the parts fit together, I would be surprised if you could find a dev board that would outperform a dedicated router in terms of features and power consumption for a low price. Some of the RPi alternatives might be close, Banana Pi, Odroid, etc.
