Official Speedify installer is released in Beta

[bt61]

I think we can all give @TalalMash a huge thank you for this and SmoothWAN which were probably hugely instrumental in Speedify developing official OpenWRT support. Does this mean SmoothWAN and this unofficial installer should sunset? I would be very interested to see that discussion. Are there shortcomings of the official installer?

THANK YOU @TalalMash for getting us here!!! Huge help to the mobile sports community.

As for the official version, I cant get it to install on my Slate AX. The error says the .ipk is malformed

@Brian-Rutledge They want feedback during the beta process, you should contact them. They have mentioned several times on the Office Hours live stream that they like the GL.iNet devices, have done some testing on them and seem to want to support them, especially the higher end ones like the Slate AX. It seems the primary testbed has been Raspberry Pi and Banana Pi.

Also, did you try the manual install instructions? https://support.speedify.com/article/922-manually-installing-on-openwrt

Thank you for the kind words!
SmoothWAN will likely support other OSS bonding solutions in the future with Speedify being an option.
I'm a bit surprised by the package requirments like NGINX for forwarding, I thought the Speedify app itself can handle all the trickery for the web UI and others by simply allowing LAN clients...
NGINX on many non-vanilla OpenWrt configurations can break LuCI.
