Hi!
Hi,
Is there some package for running Tor bridges on OpenWrt supported devices?
Yes, we have Tor packages in the OpenWrt repository.
But as I understand Tor bridges consumes same amount of CPU power and RAM as Tor itself so they are not really possible for low power devices as WiFi routers where OpenWrt normally runes (with typically around 16 MB RAM and 200 MHz CPU power).
But on the other hand, as we have in operation a lot of WiFi routers around the country, many of them having their own public IP from very diverse IP ranges, this would be quite useful for bridges.
So my question is if somebody has tried to do something like that? Have some experience with it?
You might want to read more about the Torouter: https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/TheOnionRouter/Torouter and https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/TheOnionRouter/Torouter_notes. It would be great if you wanted to help out.
Let me know if you have any questions.
Thanks,
