This is an educational project, not a commercial product

This item should not be labeled as a product. It contains very good ideas and can be very helpful. Unfortunately, it wasn't finished and was put on the shelf too soon. In my opinion there is a big difference between an academic project and a commercial product. In an academic project you only have to implement your ideas, all users are people who know how to use them. In a commercial product, all this work should be done for your customer, the product should not crush, lock up, or cause system problems no matter what users input. Users do not have to assume these responsibilities. And the consequences?! I had to factory reset the router, reset the proxy, restore DNS. Ultimately, I didn't want to use the product, even if it worked, because it opened a hole in my firewall and made my entire network insecure. Bottom line, great concepts but I'll wait a few more years, wait for them to finish the work they started.

Pros
  • Free for educational use
Cons
  • Not sure
