@tech.explain: What is a homebrew router? Foreign made routers are banned in the U.S. But turns out you can just build your own. It’s called a homebrew router and it uses a raspberry pi and a few extra components. You get way more control over what your router can do, plus you don’t have to keep paying for one from a cable provider.

900mbps of shared bandwidth (for ALL devices on the network). Might as well get a regular router and install open source firmware. Better performance, less manual work, and wireless with a ton of other features alr built in

Mind you they are only banning household/consumer grade routers and not commercial grade so this literally does not help secure infrastructure in the slightest.

This is cool but for most of us, routers are so cheap. Who cares about security. Netflix already knows what I watch.
