From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

What to do, with a TP-Link Archer C7? (lemmy.ml)

I got an Archer C7 and i am wondering what to do with it. It already runs openwrt, but we dont need another router.

Are there any recommendations on using a openwrt as Pi-Hole-like thing for example?

Configure it like the current router and keep it as a backup?

You can run a lot of stuff on it, but those boxes aren't really that powerful... a cheap, old raspberry pi from ebay (or anything really) will serve you better.
