M4stah Posted June 8, 2015 Share Posted June 8, 2015 In a recent reddit post on /r/dota2 you stated that the software on your router is based on OpenWRT. OpenWRT is released under the GPLv2, so I was wondering where the source code for your software is availble, as is required by the GPLv2 license.

You'll know best Iain but I'd hang fire. You might want to delve back into it in time and never know what it could end up as Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Iain Posted June 10, 2015 Administrators Share Posted June 10, 2015 yeah good point, I was thinking of adding a commercial licence alternative as well if someone wanted to use it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Netduma Staff Netduma Crossy Posted June 10, 2015 Netduma Staff Share Posted June 10, 2015 yeah good point, I was thinking of adding a commercial licence alternative as well if someone wanted to use it.

Administrators Netduma Iain Posted June 10, 2015 Administrators Share Posted June 10, 2015 well completely control and knowledge of it. So I can implement things faster & make them bespoke to my needs easily but the downside is it hasn't been tested as much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
