IIRC the Ath10k wireless is not very hackable (big binary blob), so that would mean that unless Google has been able to do something new here, it's not very hackable for make-wifi-fast.

Am I remembering correctly?

otherwise it sounds like a nice device for the price.

The IPQ8064 from Qualcomm might become more FOSS-friendly over time, Qualcomm seems to be going in the right direction, but right now it's fairly closed down.

So no, I don't see this platform as a short term make-wifi-fast development platform, at least not without getting Qualcomm onboard and working closely with the project.

If I understand correctly, we have both the packet accelerator (closed source) and the ATH10K wireless (closed source) to contend with.
