The Covid-19 pandemic makes people aware of having to work from anywhere so that the need for internet increases and the costs incurred for internet each month increased too. Because of this, several kinds of solutions to answer this problem become interesting. There is a need for technology so that the internet covers all areas at affordable prices. One of the solutions developed is to use an OpenWrt router with internet sources from the Global System for Mobile Communication (GSM) network. This study aims to determine the implementation of technopreneurship and innovation in the development of OpenWrt router from Set Top Box (STB) with a GSM network as its internet source. The data used in this study were secondary data obtained from the internet, and as a tenant, we already start to make a prototype of the product. The analysis is carried out by referring to the technopreneurship approach and innovation systems and implementing the technopreneurship model in the case studies. The result of this research is that technopreneurship and innovation systems are essential for fostering successful technology-based entrepreneurs. The Business Model Canvas (BMC) also helps to develop the commercialization of technological innovations. BMC helped find the keys to product commercialization.
