Whilst I appreciate that the firmware is based on Openwrt how can I be assured that that GL have not inserted backdoors in their proprietary version? Is their version completely Open-source?
If I wanted to get rid of GL’s firmware, how easy is it to reflash with clean version of Openwrt?
For our peace of mind, we’ll purchase some routers and reverse engineer them. We’ll be looking in-particularly for the existence of Virtual LAN’s as outlined in this research on BT Modems <span class=“url”>https://cryptome.org/2013/12/Full-Disclosure.pdf

We’ll keep you posted on the results - hopefully good.
