Introduction #
Router Pal is a specialized Wi-Fi router powered by OpenWRT, enhanced with our proprietary Keep Connect (RouterPal) firmware. Unlike standard routers, Router Pal intelligently monitors your internet connection and automatically reboots itself whenever a connection loss is detected and confirmed.
This self-healing feature helps maintain consistent network uptime without manual intervention—ideal for home, office, or remote installations where reliability matters most.
With Router Pal:
- Your network is monitored continuously.
- The router performs automated resets when necessary.
