Download Firmware FreshTomato 2020.5

FreshTomato is a Tomato-derived firmware for various ARM or MIPS based routers from Asus, D-Link, Huawei, Linksys, Netgear, Tenda and Xiaomi. It can be seen as the continuation of ‘Tomato by Shibby’ since this developer, Michał Rupental, wants to devote his time to other projects. Compared to the original firmware from the manufacturer, the FreshTomato firmware adds several extra options, such as a real-time bandwidth monitor and extensive setting options. The developers have released FreshTomato 2020.5 and it is available for routers with a arm– or mipsCPU.
