MeJ (and everyone) -- The GL iNet routers are pretty good. I use these as APs:
https://www.gl-inet.com/products/gl-b1300/ Also available in a PoE version (which I need to remember to order for the office). And my travel MiFi is also by GL iNet: https://www.gl-inet.com/products/gl-mifi/ No relation to the company. Just happy to support affordable OpenWRT mainline equipment suppliers! Kind regards, travis PS -- I also have a Turis Omnia as edge routers at home and the office, but that's a whole other class of affordability!
