Ubiquity FTW, for sure.
I visited with them in their new facility down in Draper, it's pretty
cool. And now a bit of a utah company, so support the locals!
I u sed to mess around with all sorts of wifi gear, local routing, etc.
Then I switched to the AmpliFi Hd (https://amzn.to/31ypKHV) and I'm a
super fan now. It just works, and you don't have to jack around with
stuff. Get back a little of your life :)
Now all I have is a utopia network gateway, a server w/pfSense (under
ESXi) and an AmpliFi HD device.

Apparently they have a "consumer grade" version now too:

I think it has some sort of VPN or tunneling features, IIRC, but these are
definitely more fancy than what you want. Just thought I'd bring it up
anyway.

I discovered Ubiquiti a few years ago and I love them. They're cheaper
than consumer-grade routers *and* more powerful.
I have the AC-Lite at home right now:

I believe you can get to the Linux shell and do all sorts of cool things
if you have the inclination.
I've done it on one of their routers at least.
The UAPs run in no-nonsense AP mode by default and I really like their
software. It's robust without being (in my opinion) neither too complex nor
too hand-holdy.

My home WiFi router (a TP-Link WR841N) has died the death, so it's time
to replace it.
I just need a WiFi to Ethernet bridge. I don't need firewalling, DHCP,
DNS, etc., as I do all that from several debian boxen.
2.4GHz is a requirement. 5GHz would be good for future expansion.
I see several routers that come with WRT built in. Are they worthwhile
for my application? I see the GL.iNet GL-AR750S-Ext and variants.

My main requirement is indoors, occasionally outdoors in the yard, so I
don't need a lot of range.
Thoughts? Suggestions?
