Review on TRENDnet TEW-712BR: Open Source Home Router with Wireless N Technology (150 Mbps) by Jeff Kern

Revainrating 5 out of 5

It can't get any better if the price is right

This Atheros SOC is excellent. The included firmware is a bit sparse. The system works reliably, OpenWRT AttitudeAdjustment works. Prebuilt firmware with LuCI WebUI can be found in the following thread: [.] (Search DD-WRT forum for t=165450). I calculated that with an average electricity cost of 0.8, this router would cost me less than $1/year. Tue

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
  • I'm worried
