Walnut City, Calif. – August 27, 2015
– Tenda Technology Inc.®,
a subsidiary of Shenzhen Tenda – an experienced, global brand of wired
and wireless networking hardware – today announces open source Tomato
firmware compatibility for existing W1800R and W1801R Wi-Fi routers*.
Tomato is the leading Linux-based open source firmware for wireless
routers and access points using Broadcom chipsets. It enhances these
devices with better performance and new options. Tenda did extensive
R&D to make sure Tomato works with these routers. "Networking
enthusiasts know the value of Tomato firmware," states

rigorous internal tests of Tomato on our routers and concluded it was a
valuable asset; our partnership with Broadcom assures us of Tomato's
stability on our hardware.”
