Since most router makers use overseas manufacturing, it’s unclear which manufacturers would actually be clear to continue selling their products.
It’s going to be limited to whichever manufacturer doesn’t grease Trump’s palm.
Well it’s lucky that the FCC regulates a country where the local manufacturers are already producing millions of these devices locally … oh … wait.
There goes Ubiquiti and Mikrotik’s. Ugh. Good homelab and SMB routers. Shit, that’s basically anything that isn’t Cisco, even though those are really only assembled in USA not even manufactured.
This FAQ answers a couple of my questions, but it’s unclear if the definition of “router” extends to network switches, etc.
“Routers” is defined by National Institute of Standards and Technology’s Internal Report 8425A to mean consumer-grade networking devices that are primarily intended for residential use and can be installed by the customer. Routers forward data packets, most commonly Internet Protocol (IP) packets, between networked systems.
Would you call most of ubiquitys stuff consumer-grade?
For sale. Optiplex 9030. Wi-Fi add on and four-port network card. Runs dd-wrt.
Guess I could get more imaginative and run it as a LXC from proxmox, but having services like that on your border device is asking for trouble.
