Great for IoT prototypes
Works out of the box with OpenWrt. I was able to flash my custom firmware within an hour. Perfect for smart home gateway projects.

Solid hardware, docs lacking
The board itself is excellent and stable. However, the documentation could be more detailed for beginners. Still recommended.

Good for learning embedded Linux
Helped me understand WiFi drivers and embedded systems. Boot time is fast and the community support is helpful.

Perfect WiFi gateway
Used this to create a smart home bridge. The WiFi signal is strong and the MT7628N handles multiple connections well.
