Anyways I cant see cisco or linksys really caring.
If the features enabled by the mod'd firmware make the $90 LinkSys the functional equivalent of, say, a Cisco SOHO or SMB router at 10X or more the price, then Cisco may feel compelled to do something to protect their higher margin products. Most likely this would be elimination of GPL-powered routers, but you never know what a company will do when backed into a corner. |
