The Kiwi – our recently released high-performance Wi-Fi 7 networking SoM – just keeps getting better. This high-performance SoM now has OpenWrt upstream support! This will give companies more options when it comes to building firmware and software for their Kiwi-powered solutions. Developers can find Kiwi OpenWrt documentation and more information on the OpenWrt GitHub.
OpenWrt is a common choice among developers building projects using 8devices modules. Upstream support will give these developers and their companies’ engineering teams the following benefits:
- Frequent and comprehensive security fixes;
- The latest kernel updates;
- More software packages;
- More community support for their Kiwi OpenWrt project.
Kiwi is the latest addition to a growing list of 8devices modules that enjoy OpenWrt support:
- Carambola 2
- Carambla 3
- Habanero
- Jalapeno
- Lima
- Mango
- Rambutan
We want to thank our engineering team and the team at OpenWrt for helping us provide more flexibility and value to our clients!
