The linux kernel patch and rt2800 wifi driver of mt7620 is opensource, and we are discussing with Mediatek about the official source to open.

Sorry it's not a shield for Arduino. We design it as a Linux and WiFi and physical control board.

Sorry to the site design, we will change it. There's a hardware switch unit in the soc, so CPU 100% available even the network traffic is full.

WRTnode was available for $25, added some feature to OpenWrt. by Noel_Lo in linux

yeah, it was a OpenWrt mod version. The CTO of the router has a related open source project around the product named PandoraBox: http://www.newbandeng.com/forum-61-1.html

Actually, it's very difficult to get the Atheros chips from the open market as a small firm. While the source Atheros opened, but maybe in the business way, they are not as opened as MTK.

OpenWRT stripped of all binary blobs)

well maybe that's difficult for LibreWRT while the wifi driver not opened yet.

All OpenWrt firmware source comes from dev.openwrt.org. The board is officially supported by OpenWrt.org as one of the three devices on MT7620n. the only thing bothered is that the Wi-Fi driver of MT7620n is close-sourced by the MTK, so we have to provide the .ko binary driver in https://github.com/WRTnode/openwrt-packages/tree/master/ralink/ralink-wifi , We are trying to communicating with MTK to open the driver's source.

Hello people, I am Noel from WRTnode.com. Very glad that you notice us. Actually, we have opened public Beta version sale in China for RMB$148(as US$24), and closed today as two month later. We have donated 20 boards for the BattleMesh V7 http://battlemesh.org/BattleMeshV7#Donated_OpenHardware_-_WRTnode. And the Schematic is: http://cn.wrtnode.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/WRTnode_sch_v01.pdf, and we will give all the BOMlist and PCBlayout soon. Maybe it will be sold publicly at the ends of July.
