I am now very curious as to the benefits of running OpenBSD vs the Customer
Linux that ERLite uses. (goes to do internet reading)

The Edgerouter Lite will also run OpenBSD, even has encryption
hardware boost available for VPN(but no WiFi).
Ubiquiti just (~20200705) EOLd the UniFi-Video product to move folks
into a newer product(done badly, hardware drop etc*), but if you don't
use UbiFi-Video then no problem...

I have yet to run them in a proper mesh, but the 2.4 to 5 handover is
really smooth.

How well does Ubiquiti handle things like dynamic channel balancing
(figuring out what ap should run on non-overlapping channels), band
steering (moving 2.4ghz clients to 5ghz), and roaming features?
Having deployed Cisco/Aruba/Arista/Mist/Aerohive/Meraki they tend to do
this, but need some orches
I'll pile on here. I have been extremely happy with my Unifi gear. Other
mesh products I've used weren't nearly as solid.

I second the use of Ubiquiti devices, specifically UniFi. While the management
interface is proprietary, you can run it in Docker or as I do on Debian in a
virtual machine. It will automatically discover all Ubiquiti UniFi devices on
the network and allow you to configure them all through the sa
I have been using Ubiquiti for the last few years. Their edge devices have
been really solid, and the AP I have has been super stable. All the
management software is free as long as you are willing to set up some
containers or vm's which in my mind is rather nice.

A lot of the consumer "mesh" products I find are pretty janky after review
or use. Not tried Eero, but I did try Samsung mesh AP's for a bit, and
found them mostly inept. I considered the google units, but didn't want
them uploading everything I do back to google.
The term "mesh" tends to imply
I am rather fond of the Ubiquiti mesh hardware. Gigabit POE powered and a
very nice central management toolset.
