I’m thinking about upgrading my W-Fi and I was curious what wireless access points (WAP) people are using. I’m currently using a Netgear R7800 running OpenWRT.

    2nd hand Ruckus.

    They’re decent quality that you’d see in a commercial / enterprise setting (so PoE), but Ruckus also have their “Unleashed” firmware which removes the need for a WLC.

    I have 2 in a mesh at home and easily support many IoT devices, phones, laptops, etc on multiple SSIDs

        I’m using R600 - these are now EOL, so their price should be more reasonable (ie <60 £/$/€) - up to you if you want / need to pay a little more for someone to have flashed Unleashed onto it.

        But definitely check there’s a download of Ruckus Unleashed for the model you want.

            That looks like a better choice if you have multiple clients because of the Wave2 and 4x4, so, yes, should be good… Something I might look at in the future. Enjoy.
