Turris Omnia
2 GB RAM DDR3, CPU 1.6 GHz dual-core ARM, 5× GLAN, 1× GWAN, 2× USB 3.0, SFP, 2× mPCIe, 1× mSATA/mPCIe, 8 GB eMMC, 1× SIM slot, Wi-Fi 3×3 MIMO 802.11ac and 2×2 MIMO 802.11b/g/n, FCC
Home router is necessary to connect you to the Internet but it is idle most of the time, just eating electricity. Why not use it for more tasks? With powerful hardware, Turris Omnia can handle gigabit traffic and still be able to do much more. You can use it as a home server, NAS, printserver and it even has a virtual server built-in.
Why "more than just a router" is reality and not only a cliché:
- Freedom – Omnia uses an operating system based on OpenWrt. This means that you have an open Linux distribution in your device and can do anything you would with a normal Linux server.
- High-performance – Omnia contains a high power dual-core ARM CPU at 1.6 GHz with PC-like performance and 2 GB RAM DDR3.
- Attack identification – Omnia can identify suspicious data streams and send information about them to the Turris HQ. All you have to do is to enable this feature to improve your protection.
- Distributed adaptive firewall – The Turris headquarters compares data received from thousands of connected routers and if it identifies an attack, updates are sent right away to all Turris devices.
- Virtual server – There is a built-in virtual server in Omnia, which you can use for your software without risk to the main system.

Automatic updatesWith Omnia, you are always running the latest firmware with all of the security patches. You don’t have to worry about anything. |
Data in the security of your homeEvery Turris Omnia device can be used as a shared network storage, so you’ll have your data under control. |
Identification of possible attacksOmnia can identify suspicious data streams and send information about them to the Turris headquarters. All you have to do is to enable this feature to improve your protection. |
Distributed adaptive firewallThe Turris headquarters compares data received from thousands of connected routers and if it identifies an attack, updates are sent right away to all Turris devices. |
How does distributed adaptive firewall work?
- There is malicious traffic trying to get into your network from the internet and infect your devices. Fortunately, the Turris router is capable of monitoring all the traffic.
- When the Turris router detects suspicious traffic, it sends its fingerprint into the Turris headquarters. The information is evaluated there, compared with data from other Turris routers and in case an attack is detected, a protection is prepared.
- A new security fix is created and distributed to all Turris routers. Thus the users help to protect each other by sharing information about new security threats.
- Your home network, containing many devices often without any resistance to outside attacks, is protected.

I’m still in the testing phase but configuration was relatively straightforward but you do need to get around the fact the router runs a derivative of OpenWRT called TurrisOS.
You are essentially running OpenWRT but with some additions and improvements from Turris. I think you can also run without the TurrisOS if you directly flash OpenWRT.
You can use either OpenWRT or eForis from Turris to configure the router. eForis has the advantage of being very simple to use for most tasks, ie it does not yet support VLAN tagging which I had to configure using OpenWRT.
[Update 2023-Feb-04]
As time has passed owning this router has become a great decision. And I am happier by the day owning it.
The operating system is updated almost daily so you will always benefit from the latest and greatest that OpenWRT and the team at Turris has to offer. And because you are essentially running OpenWRT there is plenty of technical information you can use to configure the modem. So owning this router is good for your personal and professional enjoyment.
The router is essentially a battle tank: Unstoppable. It doesn't crash, it doesn't slowdown. Once you configure it, it just runs.
And because it has been designed to be modular as new technology comes out you can keep the hardware updated. Namely, I just updated it to WIFI 6.
All I needed to do was swap the WIFI 5 cards for WIFI 6 cars, reboot and re-configure my settings (DNS, WIFI, NTP, etc). It took me about 40 minutes and I just needed to buy 1 WIFI card.
I highly recommend this router as an investment into the future.
I'm very happy with this router, and I have used it for 2 years.
The metal case makes this one of the few routers I feel comfortable putting objects on top of.
The power brick included is a 40W power supply. The router itself uses very little power (not sure if my measurement of less than 1W was correct), but the additional capacity is there to help supply plenty of power to expansions in the pci slots and usb port. I was able to run this off a lower powered power brick.
The multi color LED indicators are useful, and can be adjusted from very bright and shiny to low and easy on the eyes.
Setup is a bit tricky, not as trouble free as other routers. The automatic time setting didn't appear to work so I manually entered the time. I didn't get any internet when DNS was set to the default "provider settings", I needed to choose a specific DNS provider (eg. Google) from the drop down list before I could access internet.
When setting up wifi, I lazily connected 2 of 3 antennaes, ommitting the center antennae: this resulted in very low speeds at 2.4ghz and 5ghz not working at all. After I connected the 3rd antennae, I got 210 mbps down/ 240 up over wifi and 800 down /600 up over ethernet, which is about right for my network.
The Turris interface is not hard to navigate and lets you configure all standard router stuff, while the optional Loci interface provides a way to install, run and monitor programs you intend to run on the router.
I like this linux based software having lots of updates, meaning security and longevity should be better than proprietary router software.
With more complexity comes more chance of making a user error. You can long press the reset button to induce a factory reset and bail you out, but according to the manual if you press for a duration other than 5 seconds, you will induce an "advanced recovery mode". I don't exactly like the idea of a panic button that doesn't save you if you press the wrong number of seconds.
Overall, this router is a good way to get support of open source software, and it does well in the role of both router and server. Just be prepared for a bit more manual work to get this running than other routers.
that provide Wireguard configs for OpenWRT. Additionally the wifi signal strength is less than impressive and suffers beyond 5m. Good concept and features, but overpriced, under powered, and poorly executed hardware. I would not buy it again.

Anyway, the cut of metal chassis is not even there are some gaps, albeit small; but they really need to consider quality control more carefully especially when you pay that much amount of money (it's an expensive router).
The good thing in my opinion is the hardware flexibility as it has mini pcie in which you can add/modify modules (e.g. WWAN, different wifi adapter, etc..); other than that it's a normal router. I understand it has 2GB of RAM, but usually in normal operation (as router) this much ram will not be utilized to a degree to affect the performance, unless you will run service(s) (e.g. http). So, this not an advantage in case you want just an opensource router..
So, at the end of the day and after testing this router, I can't see that much (hi-performance) difference of my Linksys wrt3200 (runs openwrt) or Asus rt-ac86u (runs Asus-Merlin).
The wifi range of the current installed wifi modules is NOT impressive (like many other routers). I don't want to talk about the software issue(s), as this easy to solve if you have some experience/knowledge which I assume anyone wants to purchase this router should have.
In conclusion, if you want to try openwrt or any opensource firmware, then you may go for a cheaper alternative which will give you what you may need. For the adaptive firewall and real-time security (you need to agree/subscribe to send some parameters of your network traffic), this is not a new/unique thing as other vendors do the same. For example, Asus offers same thing "for free" as they claim "commercial-grade network security system powered by Trend Micro".
The only thing you may get from this router is some flexible slots, but this comes with cost (at least double of the amount you may pay for other routers in the market). These “some” other routers would give you the same joy, performance, etc.. for less (of-course at some degree).
This review given in good faith and intend to help someone to decide whether or not to purchase this router.
