Remove Stock Firmware, Improve Router Security

Open source firmwares like DD-WRT and TomatoUSB provide a first line of defense against network intrusion and snooping, removing stock firmware vulnerabilities from many popular router models. Open source upgrades provided by FlashRouters also unlock many value-added enterprise level features like advanced bandwidth monitoring, superior wireless control, and VPN integration. Using a VPN connection on a FlashRouter can encrypt an entire home network with an anonymous IP address from the location of your choosing.

Over the past four years, FlashRouters has proudly partnered with top VPN service providers including IPVanish, HMA, PureVPN & PrivateInternetAccess to help users create a blanket layer of privacy for any home or office network.



FlashRouter Expands Open-Source Warranty Initiative

To showcase the confidence they have in their own products, FlashRouters now offers two-year warranties option on all open source router purchases. Normally flashing a router voids a user's warranty, but that is not the case with a FlashRouter. In addition, all FlashRouters include top-tier Internet, wireless, and VPN US-based tech support.


FlashRouters focus is always on simplicity. That's why they specialize on the out-of-the-box dual router setup solution. This allows anyone to add a VPN connection to an existing network without the need to modify their current configuration. Users can then choose between local and VPN wireless networks for any device, even SmartTVs and streaming players like Roku and AppleTV without native VPN support.

Open Source Giving Program Extended

The network security solutions of FlashRouters would not be possible without the efforts of open source firmware developers who created and maintain DD-WRT and Tomato. Ultimately, it is their contributions that lay the groundwork for secure firmware alternatives on the best wireless router hardware from Asus, Linksys, and Netgear. Schwartz emphasizes, "FlashRouters is on a mission to help open source development communities grow and flourish. That's why with every purchase a customer has the option to donate to our Open Source Giving Program which we will match and distribute to these hard working development teams."
