What that means is when you turn on your router, on comes a second, extremely efficient Linux computer with 512MB of RAM and as much storage a you're willing to buy in the form of a MicroSD card. The power provided by the USB host is usually sufficient and it won't need its own power supply. The Zero is a $5 computer less than half the size of a business card, and properly configured it can be plugged directly into your router's USB port and act as an ethernet-connected computer, implementing both the host and the client interface. To say nothing of the fact that it'll get erased when you upgrade OpenWRT.Įnter the Raspberry Pi Zero ethernet gadget. On the other hand you don't want to or can't install it on your router because of its limited storage, memory and CPU. Let's say you want to run a non-OpenWRT application such Adguard Home or Pi-Hole as an add-on to your router.īut on the one hand you don't want to dedicate another system to it, using up a switch port and ethernet cabling and yet another wall wart.
