I am currently in the market for some wireless access points and thought I’d get some suggestions here first. I am currently using some old eero pro’s as access points with a firewalla router. The firewalla isn’t old and I am happy with it so I am not looking to replace it with something at this time.
Are there suggestions for more privacy focused networking equipment? Or is that just a dumb question to ask?
I’ll take a look at ubiquiti. I like to tinker but I don’t think my wife will like the internet cutting in and out while I try to figure out how to set it up or troubleshoot something.
I have a Ubiquiti access point. Changing settings on the thing rarely impacts connected clients, and if it does it doesn’t take six years to restart like a typical all-in-one router/switch/AP.
You’ll need their controller software, but I run this in Docker without issue. And if the controller goes offline the AP keeps going regardless.
Ubiquiti in my mind is the Apple of networking. It literally just works and you won’t have to do tons of hacking to get it to do stuff.
