Absolutely, but in my experience, best means the operating system that runs on the hardware, not the hardware itself.
If you want maximum accessibility, you'd be hard pressed to do better than Open WRT whose web page is: http://openwrt.org Currently, I'm using the Linksys WRT1900AC which comes with pretty awful software by default, so it may take some sighted assistance to flash the OpenWRT firmware onto it. But, the flashing task is actually quite straight forward. And, once accomplished, you've a highly accessible router/switch/WAP all in one. You can drive it via the web browser of your choice, or from a command line via ssh from your Mac terminal. Your choice. PS: I spent some time last weekend looking at where things have gotten to vis a vis the next generation of these devices, those which conform to 802.11AX also branded as wifi6. There are some compelling hardware choices, but OpenWRT support is still in fairly early development, so I'm staying away for the forseeable future. But, I expect the day will come when a device like the Linksys MR9600 or the Netgear Nighthawk MK63 will support OpenWRT. When that day dawns, I'll be a buyer and a flasher. hth Janina 'Donna Goodin' via MacVisionaries writes: > Hi all, > > I'll spare you the rant, but I'm really hating my experience with the Netgear > Orby.
