Field crews that rely on Miri Technologies' X510 bonding router are getting a new operating system. The company said miriOS is scheduled for public release next week, and it plans to demonstrate the software at NAB Show New York, Oct. 21-22 at the Javits Center, Booth 147.
Bonding routers combine several connections, such as multiple cellular carriers or satellite links, into one more dependable path. Stations use them to send live shots and remote audio back from places where a single connection would drop out. According to Miri, miriOS pairs the open-source OpenWrt platform with Speedify bonding technology from Connectify Inc. and adds a dashboard for setup and monitoring. The company said the release brings interface and performance changes, remote management of multiple Miri routers and devices from one screen, and deeper access to OpenWrt settings and modules for advanced users.
Miri said moving from the original X510 software to miriOS is a bigger step than a routine firmware update, so existing customers are being told to contact Miri support for upgrade details. The operating system also runs on GL.iNet Beryl AX, Puli AX and Spitz AX routers, which the company described as a lower-cost option for mobile users.
The company will also preview the X610 bonding router, slated for early 2027. Miri said it will carry more 5G modems, support more Starlink units, add faster wired networking and offer more power options, using the next generation of Speedify bonding. For live video, a Broadcast Hub feature will take incoming SRT feeds and turn them into outputs for streaming services, CDNs or NDI production workflows.
Also on the stand: the Miri Data Platform, a self-service portal for the company's NetConnect+ multi-carrier data plans that handles SIM provisioning, preferred-carrier assignment, usage data and billing, plus a fan-cooled backpack for carrying the X510 with antennas fully deployed. Miri said the backpack also fits other devices, including its V410 encoder/decoder.
X510 owners planning to move to miriOS should check with Miri support before upgrading, given the company's note that the change goes beyond a standard firmware update.
