Um comparativo de firmwares para roteador tplink – openwrt x firmware padrão
Resumo
The present work aims to show the comparative results between two types of
firmware, the default already installed at the factory in the router and a modified
firmware based on Linux, Openwrt, which obtained better performance. The applied
methodology was an exploratory one composed by a bibliographical survey where
we looked for works, articles and existing subjects that related to ours, so that it
would give us greater familiarity with the subject in question. We also performed tests
with the firmwares, both default one and Openwrt, where we performed a basic
evaluation on the specific characteristics of each firmware for comparative effect and
performance tests. Finally the gathering and analysis of the collected data, evaluating
which the firmware obtained better performance in the tests in comparison to the
other. The results were very interesting, as they demonstrate that the Openwrt
firmware still needs to be extensively exploited to its true potential is known. It should
be made clear that the default firmware TP-link fulfills well the requirements of many
of its characteristics. With the comparative we hope that there is a greater promotion
of the use of modified firmware, and it can be used in several places such as:
schools, companies, residences or any other places in which its application is
possible.
