Free Software Wireless-N Mini VPN Router v3 (TPE-R1300)![]() Are you looking for a router with a bit more power? Introducing the 3rd generation of 100% free software wireless mini routers with Respect Your Freedom certification. The router ships with the most up-to-date free embedded GNU/Linux distribution: LibreCMC. LibreCMC was built from the Linux-libre kernel and a stripped down version of OpenWRT without any of the non-free bits. LibreCMC is the leading free software distribution designed for routers and other embedded distributions today. Besides being freedom-friendly we've added support for running WireGuard and OpenVPN making it easy and convenient to get a base line of protection for your privacy as well as route around local censorship. Just pick up a subscription to our optional VPN service and we'll ship the router configured to work out of the box with our privacy respecting PenguinVPN service. With our mini VPN router it's easy to utilize our PenguinVPN service with any device regardless of operating system: Simply connect the router to a modem or upstream routing device and select the "libreCMC-VPN" access point. While we've geared this router to be a simple solution to connect all your devices to a privacy friendly VPN service there are many other potential use cases including simply utilizing the router like any other router designed for the home (this is the default configuration if a VPN subscription is not selected). You can connect the router to most cable, DSL, fiber, and even select USB cellular modems. When combined with a privacy friendly VPN service provider you can expect much more:
