NetModule routers: Do they run a version of DDWRT, Tomato, etc?

[htcz]

Hey

Im looking at NetModule routers (for something professional, not home) and it said it runs Linux; Are they running DDWRT, Tomato, pfSense, etc.? Couldnt find anything stating it.

Thank you!

ithink what you may find is in some the Manual's ..... it clearly shows screenshots of WebAdmin... pages ...

My guess its what they mean by linux is LIKE EVERY! standard router the BASE OS is linux but the maker in this cause NetModule take the base and compile there approved versions of iptables etc in to it and compile tehre own IMAGE and flash that to the unit ...

as the manual screenshots and manuals say http://www.netmodule...00_manual_e.pdf

4.5 Firewall

This router uses Linux?s netfilter/iptables firewall framework (see

http://www.netfilter.org for more information).

It is set up of a range of rules which control each packet?s permission to pass the router. Packets,

not matching any of the rules, are per default allowed.

and the screenshot is of an own custom basic Webpage ...

so from what i see NetModule make there own firmware

DDRWRT in no way on there site i see any mention of NetModule being supported so i assume OpenWRT would be the same

AHHH correction .... http://www.netmodule...oduleLinux.aspx

they (NetModule) take a OpenWRT Base ... mod it to there approved specs and versions and config ... repackage it and flash those to the routers ...

so NetModule routers by looks of it are just repacked OpenWRT .... .. http://openwrt.org/

I couldnt fnid the manual for the NC1000. Thats why I asked.

While on subject, why dont I ask the question here :)

Ive been asked to recommend either:

NetModule NC1000 ( http://www.dexceldesigns.com/products/partner/nc1000_product_information_e.pdf ) (Funny thing about this one is that it is NOT on NetModule's site so I imagine it is discontinued)

or

NetModule NB2500 http://www.netmodule.com/store/products/nb2500_product_information_e.pdf

Now its obvious that the NC1000 is a more complete (and obviously) expensive "router" to connect to these:

NetModule NB1600 http://www.netmodule.com/store/products/NB1600-Wireline_product_information_e.pdf

Basically the NB1600 connect to remote machines thru OpenVPN and you can admin them remotely. Thats all to be done. Is the higher end NC1000 really neccesary? I think the NB2500 is more than enough (The NB2500 is though limited to 45 different NB1600, but Ive ignored that for now.)

Well they discontinued the NC1000 so Im not going to recommend and buy something that has been discontinued.

Yeah, I can now confirmed that: I called them up and they (their routers) have a OpenWRT base using LuCI as their GUI (standard). I have a DD-WRT router so Ill feel (more or less) right at home :)
