Unless I'm utterly mistaken I'm pretty sure all the tablet are
dependent on a proprietary wifi chip. There is non-free firmware
required in other words. That said there is work being done on a free
software tablet, but I'm not at liberty to say more. I also don't know
what the results of that will be. However I'm in regular talks with
the primary person working on it. They're doing some interesting stuff
as far as the wifi is concerned to get around the issue with all the
tablets depending on SoCs that are dependent on proprietary software
in this regard.
Hi Chris
wifi isn't everything to me. I don't want the children to have internet
access anyways so a USB to Ethernet adapter would be more then fine,
it's other topics like the operating system and toolchain that are
worrying me
