> "Two" will (hopefully) be in the 250$ region What does that mean ?

That "Two" will hopefully retail for around 250 dollars.

The full sentence:

> "Two" will (hopefully) be in the 250$ region with yet again a portion of that being donated to the project.

Is there a reasonable scenario where enough people vote "no" here? It seems unlikely, so a nuanced discussion where pros and cons are considered seems more productive. Seems like a yes/no vote makes more sense if there is actual contention or disagreement among internal factions.

If you vote no, you'll basically be seen as the stickler person without a good reason.

18 people are missing (abstained?), so could that be interpreted as an ambiguous "no"?

Awesome, I hope this work continues. I got to put my hands on a One a few weeks ago at SCaLE 22x[0], where the Software Freedom Conservancy was the "Network Sponsor"[1] and the WiFi was being provided by a bunch of Ones.

I wonder why they are including a 5G port. There does not seem to be a lot of gear that uses it. An additional 1/2.5G or 10G SFP would make more sense.

There's 30$ usb-c adapters out now. Where-as 10Gbe is usually $130+.

Yes there are very few switches with 5Gbe. But I'd be open to that changing!

Heck yeah. GL.iNet is awesome, and these specs will make this the one router to rule them all for consumer applications.

It’s a wonderful time to be into free software and free hardware. Thank you folks!
