This news makes me very happy. But here’s the interesting part;
This new product has completed full FCC compliance tests; it’s confirmed that OpenWrt met all of the FCC compliance requirements. Industry “conventional wisdom” often argues that FCC requirements somehow conflict with the software right to repair. SFC has long argued that’s pure FUD. We at SFC and OpenWrt have now proved copyleft compliance, the software right to repair, and FCC requirements are all attainable in one product!
This is even better news. Combining a device like this with something like OpenWISP will make a killer commercial deployment, specially for organizations such as hospitals and low-budget government agencies in the developing world.
Let’s see how it goes.
