For my needs unifi was worth it to not have to deal with OpenWRT again, or worse, stock firmware on consumer APs.

Amusingly, I was quite willing to put up with a day or two of tinkering and puzzling over the -occasionally godawful- docs to never have to deal with Unfi and the rest of UBNT's software ever again. Even my recent move from my OpenWRT-"powered" UAP-LR/LITE to my OpenWRT Ones required only a little bit of fussing with the configs I copied over from the -LR and -LITE... and that was because of the difference in device names between the UBNT hardware and the One hardware.
- TimTheTinker 4mo agoWhat about the radio/antenna quality? I have a UniFi U6 Pro and it covers my whole house (~3000 sqft, 2-story) providing nearly gigabit WiFi speed everywhere to my WiFi 6 devices. I don't know how much the radio/antenna helps (4x4, 6 spatial streams) but I don't see how the OpenWRT One would be an improvement besides its hackability.
