This is cool
The next router I’m getting!
Mmh only two Ethernet ports? I guess it’s for people who use mostly wifi only?

Turris Omnia & OpenWRT-ONE I wish we had this in Asia
I love the specs and the pricing. Will definitely check it out.
It would be nice if they would make one with 4 or more LAN ports with at least one of them 2.5G and no WiFi. I need multiple access points to get enough coverage. The built in WiFi is useless to me since it won't integrate nicely with Unifi.
You can hook it to a switch and a Wireless AP.. Now your networking is modular.
Turn it off then and use your own APs, it’s what I do in my home. I don’t have this specific router but I have a box with 2 eth ports, one goes to pppoe and the other to my home switch, where my APs are connected.
I'm not sure why I would get this openwrt one i stead of one from Turris
