I currently have a mesh (wired) google wifi setup but want to switch so something… not google. Preferably wifi 6 but I don’t need anything insane.

Cheap is good but I also want to be able to basically ignore it for the next 10 years.

    oof on the expensive side but might have to do it. Were you able to install open wrt on it?

      Yeah they were pricey, I should have mentioned that. I did not attempt that install. Wanted to just get it up and running first without any of my usual shenanigans.

        How is the management of them ? I see they shout about their app but can I just login using a proper keyboard on a computer to setup things like DHCP easily? How much is hidden behind a subscription service (the biggest frustration with my eero’s currently)?

          No subscription so far. The setup wasn’t super easy but I wouldn’t say it was difficult. And tbh I think I made it harder than it needed to be. I did most the setup on my phone.
