I use UniFi everything atm. Really hard to beat the APs even though I should’ve stuck with pfSense for the router.

The man from the cable company gave me a box that's got cable modem, ethernet switch, and wireless access point all in one, it works

Fricking causal. How dare you not spend 100s of hours fricking around with networking in order to get a marginal gain in performance and total control w/ spam filtering, malware protection, logging, virtual networks, blerg blerg blerg.

I’d recommend the Amplifi line. It’s ubiquiti‘s consumer line - you don’t have to install pfSense lol

I only wanted their extended range wireless AP. Pfsense being OpenBSD(?) more smoothly meshes with the rest of my
nonsensenetwork.Jump in the discussion.

Having a couple of their access points really is a game changer if you live in anything but a small apartment

pfSense is FreeBSD based (you can even use ZFS!), waiting for a OpenBSD router appliance but it’s slow and has a terrible filesystem.

I’ve rarely seen those perform well. Sometimes it’s obvious and you don’t get the advertised throughput other times it’s more subtle and you have bufferbloat style problems.

You can hack them pretty easily too because the default passwords cable companies choose can be easily cracked with best64

Yeah my buddy does virtualized pfSense. Maybe I’m too boomer but virtualizing something as key as my router always seemed weird to me. I actually sprung for a branded Netgate appliance when I was using pfSense.
Yeah opnsense might be the move, it’s a shame the pfSense guys are such buttholes.

I went with TP-Link Omada. Some of the UniFi shit doesn't even make sense. Look at this access point which advertises 3Gbps total throughput. Except it's ethernet port is only 1Gbps. The equivalent TP-Link access point conveniently has a 2.5Gbps ethernet port. The next project is to get a network card that supports the 2.5Gbps GPON SFP transceiver so I can hook my pfSense box directly to the fiber.

A podcast host I listen to really likes the TP-Link stuff. Glad to hear it lives up to the hype.

Asus router with asuswrt-merlin. Probably about time to get upgraded to WiFi6 eventually.

I ran Merlin on some gear previously. The maintainer was a total chad and got a lot of his stuff upstreamed lol.
Yeah I’m still looking for a reason to upgrade to 6E, I can pull 400Mbps off these APs with some tuning which is Plenty good unless I’m copying off my NAS.

Custom firmware like OpenWRT or Tomato are pretty slick. Didn’t realize Tomato was still kickin.

The shit gigabit router my ISP gave me, all devices are connected via ethernet to it, I've disabled the wifi on it and use a TP-Link Archer C6 router in access point mode (its connected over gigabit ethernet to the isp router) for mobile/iot devices

I ended up using a third party modem even. The Comcast one was particularly bad with the “free WiFi hotspot” they would set up.

I use an R7000P with DD-WRT, clients connect to Google Wifi in bridge mode. Or bridge mode is on the router, dunno I’m a noob. DD-WRT is a must since I can use a VPN network wide. The R7000P caps the speeds though, does anyone know what router I should get that’s DD-WRT compatible that won’t cap VPN?

I would maybe investigate OpenWRT. My knowledge of those platforms is rusty but I recall OpenWRT being the current recommended project. I’d also look at VPNs using Wireguard, it’s a lot better than OpenVPN and should boost your throughput and lower your latency if configured correctly.

http://mullvad.net/ Is the gold standard for VPNs right now. They support wireguard, don’t even store you payment details anymore and you can even pay in Monero.
