Hello pals,

As in the title, is there any opensource or friendly open Wireless Access Point? or DIY solution ? I don’t ask for easy one, as long as it is performant.

I have actually two UniFi AP but these cloudy devices are getting on my nerve and honestly.

    For what it’s worth, GL-iNet sells routers which run OpenWRT with a proprietary GLi panel running on top of it which makes a lot of basic tasks for a router/WAP waaaay easier than on bare OpenWRT.

    I have been using GLi products for 3 years or so and own several. If you’re trying to do much outside the “garden path” you will end up needing to tinker. They are not 100% bulletproof out of the box, and like anything to do with OpenWRT the documentation can have gaps. But all that said, my GLi devices have treated me very well, and I like that most if not all have, or will have, vanilla OpenWRT support.
