Own your router.
Shapnet OS turns an x86 box into a serious router and firewall — a modern web UI on a lean, purpose-built base, and settings that stay yours. Open source under AGPLv3, built for homes and small offices.

All features & hardware requirements
A router OS, not a science project.
One focused operating system that boots on cheap hardware, gets your network online, and stays out of the way. The first stable release is the whole mission right now.
Zone-based firewall
Rules speak in WAN, LAN, and custom zones instead of interface names — a model that stays readable as your network grows.
The essentials, built in
DHCP, DNS, and first-class PPPoE out of the box. Plug in the WAN, answer a few questions, and the network is up.
Web UI + console TUI
Run everything from a browser. When there is no browser, a full-screen console installer and recovery TUI has you covered.
