[Cerowrt-devel] Alternative platform for make-wifi-fast?

It's not a router platform, but I thought this was an interesting
development.

EdgeCore is apparently contributing 3 Access Point designs to the
OpenCompute project.

One of the designs, a 802.11ac 3x3 MIMO design, looks to be based on this:

 (there is an outdoor 3x3 and an indoor 2x2 as well)

Are there any thoughts as to the feasibility of using this as a basis for
make-wifi-fast?

Regards,
  Kelvin

I have longed for something wifi to enter the realm of the OCP project
for ages, and more enterprise-y features be regularly available on the
lower end (see also, eero).

as for all the talk of open-ness... it's just talk till code shows up
somewhere like github - what's the chipset? where's the source?

Let's go make home routers and wifi faster! With better software!
