i really like that they are giving us more lan ports, but the hefty price tag really dissapoints me.

really puts it into unaffordable territory for my global south ass. too bad, i wanted to upgrade my wifi with an officially supported device, but the One doesnt have as many ports as i need.

for that price id rather get something that can run full linux.

If you think that's expensive absolutely do not look up any other brands wifi 7 offerings.

This. I'm moving to a place where I cannot use ethernet cable and I was looking for a good Wifi 7 router. Most big brands are at around the same price.

It's just unfortunate that I need it now and not on late 2025... I might just rent a Wifi 6 one from my ISP and wait for the OpenWrt 2.

Small projects do not benefit from economies of scale, I can almost guarantee you very little of this is actual profits.

id be down for a halfway device between One and Two, if they can keep the pricing closer to the One.
