- ipodopt 5y agoMight be a good idea to wait. It's coming soonish I think: - https://github.com/openwrt/luci/pull/4994 https://github.com/openwrt/luci/pull/4994 - https://forum.turris.cz/t/wifi-6-ax-adapter/10390/77 https://forum.turris.cz/t/wifi-6-ax-adapter/10390/77 I think the router might be my favorite open hardware piece: - It was easier to setup then my old Asus router - Schematics and source are easy to access. - It has never not worked. - It is made by a company that is a domain registrar with a good track record on open source projects (click the more button it the top right and you might recognize a few projects): https://www.nic.cz/ https://www.nic.cz/ - And if you need to do something advance with it, you can. Mine is has Bird runing BGP.
- BostonEnginerd 5y agoThe Omnia was quite expensive, but I've gotten frequent updates for the last four years. It's a nice mix of hackable and "just works". I've turned off the WiFi at this point, and just use it as a router now. The UniFi access point that I installed provides better coverage in my house since it's easier to place in a central location. Overall, I'd rate it as a good value.
