Although OpenWrt is fantastic router firmware, navigating its Table of Hardware (ToH) is very slow and a bit clunky.
This project enhances the user experience by providing a much faster user interface and offering straightforward options for controlling which (of the seventy or so) columns are shown, which models are shown, and ultimately which (of the 2600+) devices are shown.
The resulting web page also makes it easy for users to search the table for interesting devices.
Feel free to test the current version of the ToH
Your feedback would be greatly appreciated!
The enhanced ToH retrieves openwrt.org/toh.json from the OpenWrt server, then uses that data structure to build table for its web page.
The toh.json
file is regenerated nightly by a process that
combines information from the Techdata pages
for each device (for example, here's the
Techdata page for GL.iNet GL-MT6000).
The current project (October 2024) remains a work-in-progress. It is under rapid development: changes are likely when reports come in either through Issues in this Github repo, or through comments placed in the topic in the OpenWrt Forum
If this seems valuable (and I hope the OpenWrt team feels this way), I’m prepared to submit a pull request (PR) to include these improvements on the main OpenWrt site.
