Subject: Re: [hackathon] Homenet in IETF94 Yokohama Japan - openwrt router recommendation

If anyone has any router recommendations for running OpenWRT please let me know.

I like the small USB powered form factor of the small travel router I have now however it is not capable of running the latest version of OpenWRT that we need for HomeNet.

So ask you for recommendations – if you direct message me your replies I can compile the results in a few days and make a report.

What router do you like for running OpenWRT version Chaos Chalmer (15.05) that can be powered by USB only?

I will start browsing through the list of over 100 routers found here but your recommendation would be appreciated.

Many thanks!

p.s. Looking forward to meeting you in Yokohama and hacking on some IPv6 with the Homenet project.  Who’s running IPv6 at home or work and can do some testing before the hackathon?

Good stuff Markus. For those not familiar with the wiki, check it out at:
https://www.ietf.org/registration/MeetingWiki/wiki/94hackathon

Its good to get the ideas out there. I¹d like to encourage other would-be
champions to do so as well so that others have time to discover, get
interested, and book their travel accordingly.

Cheers,
Charles

Does it matter what version of OpenWrt we use?
Here’s what I have.
• Router Model: TP-LINK TL-WR703N v1
• Firmware Version: OpenWrt Attitude Adjustment 12.09 / LuCI 0.11.1 Release (0.11.1)
• Kernel Version: 3.3.8
• http://wiki.openwrt.org/toh/tp-link/tl-wr703n

hnetd has been part of OpenWrt since Barrier Breaker (14.07); I recommend Chaos Chalmer (15.05) that was recently released.

(For older versions such as AA, it is possible to get it working but very hard; BB/CC are more or less plug and play[1])

That said, we welcome any takers (and accept bug reports gratefully).

Cheers,

-Markus
