Today, we at SFC, along with our OpenWrt member project, announce the production release of the OpenWrt One. This is the first wireless Internet router designed and built with your software freedom and right to repair in mind. The OpenWrt One will never be locked down and is forever unbrickable. This device services your needs as its owner and user. Everyone deserves control of their computing. The OpenWrt One takes a great first step toward bringing software rights to your home: you can control your own network with the software of your choice, and ensure your right to change, modify, and repair it as you like.
I can see benefit in the 2.5G on the LAN side if you connect a disk to the USB port and have it function as a NAS. It gives you enough bandwidth for the full WAN speed plus headroom for that.
I agree I’d still prefer 2x 2.5G though.
