Basic Information
Name: Turris Omnia
Category: Hardware #1713
URL: https://www.turris.cz/en/omnia/
Description
Turris Omnia is a secure, high performance, and open-source home router. It has specifications that would allow it to easily handle Gigabit-level networking, as well as additional functionality (NAS, printserver, or other server type use-cases).
Turris Omnia was created by NIC.CZ, the non-profit .CZ domain registry behind many massive internet open-source projects including Knot (DNS Server), BIRD (Internet routing daemon), and FRED (Domain registry platform).
Why I am making the suggestion
I am adding this in a new commit to #1713 and wanted to open a discussion.
My connection with the hardware
It is recommended by the Infosec Handbook team: https://infosec-handbook.eu/recommendations/#hn
I have used software products by NIC.CZ in the past (Knot and FRED) and have been happy with their work and contributions to the open source community.
This is awesome, it has a really beautiful design too. Just add it!!
Does it require more technical knowledge that with a regular router?
I don't think there's a lot of competition when it comes to routers, this probably is the best option out there, but... is there a specific criteria to follow?
Kind of off-topic, should I start creating issues for the hardware I mentioned?
It runs OpenWrt, so it’s not quite as simple, but we do already recommend that software in our router firmware section so it is aligned with our current recommendations.
I used to run this router at home. I recommend it, it really gives you the freedom to do whatever you want with the hardware.
