The deployment proves the viability of the prpl open-source framework, which serves as a common base for broadband devices regardless of the underlying chipset. By utilizing a standardized hardware abstraction layer, SoftAtHome enables Orange to maintain consistent operator-specific services across diverse hardware generations. This architecture prevents vendor lock-in by integrating prplMesh and EasyMesh standards, allowing new Wi-Fi 7 repeaters to function seamlessly with existing gateway equipment.

Operational performance is managed through SoftAtHome’s Wifi'ON software, which automates mesh topology to optimize connectivity paths without user intervention. In Poland, the system supports up to three units per household, ensuring coverage for complex home environments. Complementing this, the Eyes'ON analytics suite provides Orange with real-time visibility into network health. CEO Arnaud Bellivier de Prin noted that the transition signifies a shift in the prpl journey, allowing operators to integrate new silicon partners while maintaining a unified subscriber experience through software updates rather than hardware swaps.
