OpenHAB on Low Power Hardware

Geared towards running on Dell Wyse 3040 ATOM CPU devices with antiX Linux with Nortek GoControl HUSBZB-1 Z-Wave and Zigbee.

The Wyse 3040 is a very basic 4 core 1.44GHz/1.92GHz (burst) Intel Atom x5-Z8350 with 2GB of RAM. Supposedly they average about 7.5 watts under normal load. They can be purchased for $35-100 on eBay (as of 2 Jan 2023). CPUMark on mine is 1,050, which is about 138 points higher than average.

Install antiX

I chose antiX as it is geared for low-end computers and it does not come with much installed on it.

by default,openwrt do not allow ssh access from wan, here are two method to change that:

1.login into your wrt from a lan host.issue the following command:
iptables -F

the command "flush away" all the firewall rules,including the one that rejects ssh request from wan.
now you can try ssh from anywhere.

aware that the firewall deactivation leads to highly security risk.and after the wrt restarts ,all default firewall configuration comes back.you hava to "flush" the rules once again.
