I'm just starting to get into Thread. Unfortunately for me, I'm militant to a fault about my stuff being really as Open Source as possible (and I'm also pretty cheap, NGL), so my "Thread Border Router" is a dev board and some instructions, not a finished product, LOL.
(I haven't set it up yet, so wish me luck. I also need to design and 3D print a case, etc...)
I'm using a Skyconnect, which might be open? It's made by the HA guys. (In addition to a Google hub v2.)
Unfortunately, those are "temporarily unavailable." The only place I've been able to find it is a third-party seller link on Amazon scalping it for $98.

Nice, $35 is way better than $98.
I'm still gonna try tinkering with my $10 ESP board for now, but I'll keep that in mind if decide I'd prefer something that "just works."
