The default firmware installed on the Atreyo AG-702 industrial OpenWrt gateway offers a wide array of advanced features designed to enhance functionality and flexibility. Among these features is robust VPN support, including protocols such as OpenVPN and WireGuard, ensuring secure and encrypted communication over public networks. Additionally, the gateway supports the ModBus protocol, serving various roles like TCP slave, TCP master, RTU master, and RTU gateway, enabling seamless integration with ModBus-enabled devices in industrial environments.

For remote management, the gateway provides multiple avenues such as a user-friendly Web UI for configuration and monitoring, SSH access for secure command-line interface management, SNMP for network device monitoring, and MQTT(s) for efficient communication in IoT applications. These capabilities empower administrators to efficiently manage and monitor the gateway and connected devices, making it well-suited for industrial deployments requiring secure, reliable, and scalable communication solutions. Atreyo also provides an SDK allowing users to develop their application(s) for the gateway. Additional information about the hardware and software can be found on the documentation website.

Atreyo told CNX Software the AG-702 industrial OpenWrt gateway is available now with pricing starting at $125 without cellular and GNSS connectivity. I can also see they have offices in India and Poland, so European companies should also be able to easily source the gateway. More details may be found on the product page.
