  1. Only question left is Why we need AVR weak controller then we have OpenWRT CPU?? And article looks better then you say about linux without Windoze screen shots

    1. Because the AVRs support higher current per IO pin and typically include >0 analog inputs.

      I think the bigger question is why does every new board waste money/board space with ethernet. We almost always just plug in a US$10 wifi adapter as soon as we get one of these little linux systems up anyway. This design at least has wifi built in. But I wonder if it is on the same usb bus as the USB host port potentially slowing network performance.

    1. one advantage is the built in wifi support. also openwrt system has powerful routing support and easy to maintain/upgrade. (i am not familiar with RPi, so no compare this.) . Second advantage is that the official Arduino IDE support for easy to use. Further advantage , in production view, it is possible to design and manufacture a combine solution (Yun Shiled + arduino) in low cost and very small footprint. but it is impossible for Raspeberry PI.

  2. Please help , I bought a shield iduino and I need the code to configure as a Web server.
    Using examples , still leaving the settings page.
    I connected via Putty and see the index.html , but is it right to modify it ?
