I’m thinking about upgrading my W-Fi and I was curious what wireless access points (WAP) people are using. I’m currently using a Netgear R7800 running OpenWRT.

      My access points are AC Lite and and U6 Lite. Those are discontinued though.

      If I get more for inside, I would probably get the U6+. I am also thinking about getting one of the AC Mesh access points for outside. I’m not too worried about speed since anything that needs high speed is wired. I don’t have any neighbors, so I have all the bands to myself. If you are in an urban area, you should probably consider one with 6GHz support.

      The U6LR is amazing but overkill. I use one to cover the house and hdnano to mesh with a uap-ac in an external building.

      I use a MoCo bridge and two U6LRs to cover 1km of farmland.
