Hardware Questions and Recommendations

Hi, I am looking at these, https://www.ebay.com/itm/126312149378?epid=16021736303&itmmeta=01J5WX8PPZGJ1Z8YA4SVPSNHRK&hash=item1d68ca7182:g:OHIAAOSwhyVlvJA7, but the seller is refusing to give any info on how they flashed them or refusing to comply with licensing. Could anyone else get further?

0 reviews seller, shipping from CN, hard pass.

if you're willing to wait for support to happen (WIP), and size isn't an issue,
get https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0D742T4LW
or https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CH1KTWPX

Yeah I'm not going to buy from them, but judging my the back and forth private messages, theres clearly some licensing issues here, and also, thanks, but I'm trying to make use of hardware thats laying around.

pretty sure licensing isn't enforced in CN.
steal with pride ...

5

sadly, yeah. Oh well, a warning at least for everyone, what is the status of official support anyway?

bump. Anything new?

New what ?

Support doesn't magically happen by itself.
If you want it supported, buy the hw, and make support happen.

On the contrary, perhaps they are (so they think). You don't really make this clear in your first post, but the assumption is that it's OpenWrt photographed in the image on the eBay product link you provided.

It's possible that the OS pictured in the photograph is actually the Qualcomm SDK and not OpenWrt.

No, it's literally OpenWRT.

this statement is based on .... what ?

11

The eBay listing photos, description, and conversation I had with the seller

12

as long as they didn't send you an un-blurred version of the picture they had in the eBay auction, there's no real proof of it ...
even then, it could still be fake, I can recreate that pic in 15 sec.

I was thinking that it was faked, but something about the whole setup, seems off to me. Perhaps someone can get farther than I can with the seller? All I get are lies

14

how does those two statements add up ?

why would we, it's an unsupported device, from a zero reviews seller.

only way to call their bluff, is to order a device.

The device is unsupported here.

The 0 review seller that has reflashed American devices in China has managed to convince you of grand lies and falsehoods. You have been hoodwinked, bamboozled, led astray!
