I was considering going the Ubiquiti way, but I'm using the dirt cheap ASUS stuff with customized firmware and getting over 500mbit on WiFi. The Ubiquiti stuff is pricy and given their nasty history with GPL violations I've abandoned it. I have to reboot my fibre terminal more than my wireless router anyways, and even that's only about twice a year.
- maratd 10y agoYes, Ubiquiti is pricy. Yes, they have GPL issues ... but so does everyone in the industry. You can mod off-the-shelf hardware and get decent performance. I've done it. The issue with going that route is stability. I've modded Linksys, Asus, etc. over the years and while they might perform well for a day or two, I always end up with stability issues and weird behavior. Ubiquiti is rock solid and performs well. They provide advanced features out of the box, no need for custom firmware or purchase of licenses. There's a reason people like them.
