Evidence register

Sources behind the compatibility matrix

Hlonix prefers current ISP and manufacturer documentation. Provider-hosted community or knowledge-base material is used only where direct support documentation is incomplete, and the checker lowers confidence instead of hiding that difference.

How evidence becomes a verdict

Each service profile stores the physical handoff, authentication method, VLAN requirement, provider-box dependency and service caveats. Router evidence covers features such as PPPoE, VLAN, VDSL and DHCP Option 61. The result is the intersection of those two records—not a generic brand score.
