• Flash custom firmware from the OEM upgrade page with minimal effort.
• Read-only bootloader is preferable for easy brick recovery.

• SDIO Wi-Fi is only supported with Wi-Fi 6+ (found in most single board computers)

Hardware specs

• ARMv7, ARMv8 and x86 64-bit
• ARM minimum requirement: 1GHz dual core Cortex-A7
• Memory: DDR3L 512Mbyte+
• Storage 128Mbyte+
• Updated modern hardware list: https://openwrt.org/toh/views/toh_available_16128_ax-wifi
  (AX hardware usually meets minimums)
• 3 or more Ethernet ports
• 1 or more USB ports

GL.iNet Spitz AX, may have to keep GL.iNet portal page for 4G/5G modem support.

Are you still considering adding Spitz support? An option with built-in dual SIM would be pretty sweet!

The Speedify team has pointed out on their livestream that phones with dual-sim only have one actual modem and simply switch quickly between the sims to make both somewhat active. As a result, they say, it's not useful for Speedify. It seems like it could still be advantageous in some cases, but I'll believe them that it's not generally a good idea.

I looked at the Spitz page and nothing indicates it actually has 2 modems, so I think it's safe to assume for now that it's a single modem with dual sim, so maybe not useless for Speedify, but not as ideal as initially it may appear.

@bt61 that's correct and it's single modem.
@cabinlab Yes once it's released, signed up for beta testing.

NanoPi R6S please.

[H1-N1]

is it necessary to have
Memory: DDR3L 512Mbyte+ ?

Yes, Speedify 12+ seem to use more memory now.
Later versions use less memory now.

Spitz AX and Beryl AX can try https://github.com/TalalMash/Unofficial-Speedify-Installer-For-OpenWrt
Beryl AX is reported to be working.
