Hello,

I hope this is not a controversial question.  I don't mean any offense to the developers of OpenThread.

I have been working to build a functioning Border Router based on Raspberry pi because this is what the examples are based on.  I've used the image from Nordic and the source code.  Both almost worked but not 100% and the effort takes time.

Thread is a standard so there isn't a reason for me to have a custom build; I would be perfectly happy to buy a commercial product that I could attach my devices to.

I know there are products out there but they are proprietary to the company's sensor or product line or at least I assume they are.

Are there commercial Border Routers available for general use?  I have found one from Kirale called Kibra. It is pretty nice and it was much faster to get running than building the code on my own.  I can recommend it but I would also like to have other choices,

thanks!

I have tried the Kirale


Border router, but in the end I had the best luck with the standard open thread version, once I finally stopped messing with the pi build and just ran the directions, exactly as written.
