OpenWrt is perfect for this: clean routing, full control, no bloat. Added AdGuard DNS to block all the unnecessary (and harmful) telemetry these devices keep sending.
Every home should have one of these

@nickbearded what is the cheapest alibaba arm device it will run on Netcore N60 Pro MediaTek MT7986A (Quad-core A53)? about 40 bucks, i have a few mango glinet and they are decent. you could also mkt this as a 4g/5g iot testbench. i see this as a way to sell product buy from alibaba in bulk, sell for double. it is a discrete product but also a gateway product #custom fw flashing #ddwrt #openwrt #routing protocols #debian arm

@gary_alderson I donβt know that Netcore model yet, but it sounds interesting!
I could get one and do some testing on my side, especially for IoT segmentation and routing experiments.
Iβve already been playing a bit with Raspberry Pi 4 + OpenWrt, so this could be a nice next step to compare hardware.
Thanks for the pointer

@nickbearded I am running a pihole on a ee laptop, runs good. i am thinking you want to do product segmentation for different services, the low power is great and the pc mkt is blown up so soc/sbc route could be a good way to go, be aware of licensing, best open source alternatives
