fvc: A number of ISP broadband packages include a free Technicolor router. So there're probably many users, I have two Technicolor routers from my ISPs, DWA0120 and TG589 VAC v2 |

adrianschmutzler: Thanks for letting us know. However, eventually somebody will still have to do the implementation. This probably is best handled/discussed at the forum (as seems to be the case already), until a device support PR/submission can be presented via the usual channels. Since this is filed as a bug report, I'm closing it now. |

dedeckeh: I'm afraid it will be impossible to support Technicolor routers as the software image is signed and the signature is verified by the bootloader at startup. |

fvc:
Most new Technicolor routers have firmware based on OpenWrt. It's probably relatively easy to support these routers.
Their source code can be requested by email [[contact-ch.opensource@technicolor.com]], the email address can be found on https://www.technicolor.com/distribute/home-experience/regulatory-information
There's an OpenWrt user who successfully requested the source code by email https://forum.openwrt.org/t/technicolor-gpl-source-code-request/16233/62
There are OpenWrt users who own Technicolor routers who may be able to help with testing https://forum.openwrt.org/t/technicolor-dwa0120-tg589-vac-v2-openwrt-support/47440. I also own a Technicolor DWA0120 and am able to help with testing.
