Could that perhaps be an issue of stupid licensing? With, smart licensing, or whatever, if the license is non-transferable, then the hardware is basically an expensive paper weight.
I've heard Cisco used to give out Meraki devices for free on some events, because without a license they were totally useless. Until someone figured out how to run OpenWRT on them.
Thats an aspect I hadn't considered, licensing. Unless you keep it off line your right its a boat anchor. What fun is that as you can't update?
