RT28 as a Side Router: Whole-Home Split Routing Without Touching the Main Router
Gateway mode vs one-armed routing — configuration differences and the trade-offs.
Gateway mode vs one-armed routing — configuration differences and the trade-offs.
Main router + AP, side router + switch, wired relay, and segmented industrial networks — three ports done right.
NAT throughput and plugin load measured — what position a hundred-dollar-class soft router can actually hold.
How DNS-level blocking works, deployment settings on RK3588, and the multi-VLAN home setup that makes it stick.
Two operating systems on one eMMC, picked at boot — media center by day, main router by night, done right.
One RK3588 box running router, NAS and media server at once — partitioning, OS layout and power planning explained.
NPU democratization, a maturing software stack, RISC-V flanking and energy efficiency as the #1 procurement metric — four structural shifts in edge computing.
Turn an RK3588 mini PC into a soft router: throughput numbers, plugin ecosystem and the dual-role trick.
3× GbE LAN + 1× GbE WAN, Wi-Fi 6 AX3000 and mainline ImmortalWrt support — the product logic behind the RT28.
In energy management, power monitoring and consumption data acquisition, the gateway plays an unglamorous but critical role: it talks downwards to meters and devices…
