Thanks :) Yeah, the router is defiantly further in the future to, as it additionally requires CPU integration for run the software stack, switches are the first order of business.

Haha, nice one. Defiantly all wrong, if hardware design was a religion I might have been excommunicated for this. Deploying the fix now, it should have been "all nighter".

This is an opinion piece: I recognize that what defines an exception engineer is deeply personal, and this is an attempt to put my own definition into words.

This tool used to be available though a great web interface. When I was visiting it in the past it felt like the site would be up forever, and then one day I tried to reach out to it again only to realize it was gone. I had once again forgotten how fickle the internet is. For now the only other instance of it is though code forge, but one day, that too might disappear.

So this repository exists in an effort to keep an archive of this code, preserve the memory of what the tool used to be, and do so in the most respectable manner to the original creator.
