A kid did an oopsies on my current Wi-Fi router and really curious what you guys are connecting with?
Xiaomi Router 4C with OpenWRT firmware.
It’s very cheap and can provide 100MB/s speed, but I didn’t trust the original Chinese firmware
TP-Link Deco X60. I wanted something simple to be configured through an app, I don’t want to do network maintenance at home, I just wanted something simple that worked and this has been flawless.
Netgear Orbi mesh system. It works pretty well. I think when this system dies I’ll go back to using Ubiquiti gear.
UDM-Pro + U6-Pro + U6-Lite
I use a UDM PRO with U6 Lite APs. Works really well.
I’ve got a old AC1900 in access point mode (it’s failing tho after 6 years and 5-6 moves) and a cheap $30 Netgear access point from Amazon. Both linked to my.PFSense router. Works phenomenaly
I’m running a UniFi Dream Machine and a UniFi BeaconHD while I upgrade my network. Works well enough for now.
Planning to build a pfSense/OPNSense router with Wi-Fi 6E APs and run ethernet in my house. That’s a ways off, though. Maybe when I pull in more money.
I use Ubiqiti’s UniFi range. Perhaps a little pricy but rock solid and easy to setup. Check out the Dream Router if you want something all in one.
ASUS RT-AX86S and 2x RT-AX53U in AiMesh mode
I am Using TP-Link Omada for switches snd APs and an old dell optiplex with opnsense for arouter
AVM Fritz!Box all the way
Meh. Their software is getting worse and worse lol. No deep links inside the interface, and it logs me out, when I reload the site. Why? They redesigned the interface for the 10th time, and the Mesh overview screen still isn’t shown on the mobile site. Their mesh solution completely relies on magic and provides no solutions to my TV, which really likes that one ap which it can reach with 1Mbit/s rather than using the one next to it which would archieve 800+Mbit/s They still persist on using DECT based smart home stuff. Get on with the times and integrate a Thread/Zigbee chip or support USB ones. The NAS functionality is completely useless as it is way to slow. No real VLAN support, still.
If you need a stable modem and basic wifi, and telephony they are decent. Anything else is better served by the competition.
ASUS RT-AX88U with Merlin Firmware.
Asus RT-AC68U with Merlin.
TP-Link Omada WiFi access points, dumb switches, and OPNSense running on a mini PC.
I really like the Omada line up. Affordable, and all their devices can be run in standalone mode if you don’t want to deal with an SDN controller.
