The border router solution was changed shortly after this post to use the OpenThread border router solution. It has docker support, which should be possible to run on any Linux machine.

It's been four years. Any luck with getting the Nordic Border Router software to run on Ubuntu?

I would like nat64. However, if I was able to get a setup basically identical to the openwrt it would still work I believe since I would only be trying to reach the host computer or the thread nodes from the host computer.

This should be possible, but have not yet been thoroughly tested. I will do some testing and write some more detailed instructions. Do you need NAT64 (you do if you only have IPv4 connection available), or do you have native IPv6 connection?

Yea. It works fine on openwrt. I would like UBUNTU for additional functionality.

I basically want to have a full desktop with xsession node.js, and mongodb then have it directly connect to my thread network.

Using the openwrt I can have 2 devices but Im looking into the possibility of making it all in one.
