NeoRouter client for Linux comming soon

We are really excited to announce that we will have NeoRouter Client CLI for Linux release soon. So far, it's still under the alpha test. Check out the screen shot.

We plan to develop and publish NeoRouter for Linux, Mac OS and Mobile phone version. Thanks for the hard work of NeoRouter team, we can start testing the Linux client now. Thought it's just a CLI client, it supports all basic features, such as built-in firewall, computer list and so on. It still has two components, one is running as a service under root permission and another is dealing with UI. It provides the same list as Windows version and keep the list automatically updated whenever changes happen to your virtual network like a computer goes online/offline, instead of just a command line tool. Since most Linux boxes would be running in the passive mode, it's easy for users to remotely manage the Linux boxes using VNC, ssh, Samba, Xmanager and so on.

Moreover, we have already ported it to support OpenWrt, Tomato and FON firmwares. Can you imagine that you can make your Linksys router or Asus router a small computer and remotely access the NAS or printer attached to it?

BTW, the Mac version is on the way and would be finished pretty soon, as the most hard issues have been solved.

Stay tuned!
