The OpenWrt Project is a Linux operating system targeting embedded devices. Instead of trying to create a single, static firmware, OpenWrt provides a fully writable filesystem with package management. This frees you from the application selection and configuration provided by the vendor and allows you to customize the device through the use of packages to suit any application. For developers, OpenWrt is the framework to build an application without having to build a complete firmware around it; for users this means the ability for full customization, to use the device in ways never envisioned.
See the Table of Hardware for supported devices. For more information about OpenWrt project organization, see the About OpenWrt pages.
Today marks the release of the OpenWrt One, the first router built with your right to repair and software freedom in mind. Powered by MediaTek MT7981B SoC, it boasts features like dual-band WiFi-6 (3×3/2×2), PoE, dual Ethernet ports, and a mikroBUS expansion header. Priced at US$89 (or US$68.42 for a board-only version), this hacker-friendly router is unbrickable and FCC-compliant.
Regardless of where you buy from, for every purchase of a new OpenWrt One, a US$10 donation will go to the OpenWrt earmarked fund at SFC. Your purchase not only improves your software right to repair, but also helps OpenWrt and SFC continue to improve the important software and software freedom on which we all rely!

OpenWrt — building on their sixteen years of success as the most popular Free and Open Source (FOSS) wireless router project — today joins Conservancy as a member project. FOSS wireless routers assure software freedom for all Internet users. Conservancy will help OpenWrt continue to thrive and grow as its new fiscal sponsor.
OpenWrt occupies a special place in the history of software freedom. OpenWrt’s creation and launch shows that GPL enforcement works and advances software freedom. In 2004, when Linksys released the firmware code for the WRT54G router series, coders and tinkerers regained control over their own routers, and launched OpenWrt based on the sources liberated from GPL enforcement. Today, OpenWrt leverages software freedom protected by the GPL to share that freedom and control with everyone who uses wireless routers to connect to the Internet.
Like any open source project, OpenWrt thrives on the efforts of its users and developers.
