Hello pals,

As in the title, is there any opensource or friendly open Wireless Access Point? or DIY solution ? I don’t ask for easy one, as long as it is performant.

I have actually two UniFi AP but these cloudy devices are getting on my nerve and honestly.

    I didn’t realise I could do this with unifi APs. Looks like a good option for out of support ubiquity APs.

    Is there a reason you don’t run your own unifi control software?

      Not opensource, I don’t want to install their stuff on my smartphone (bluetooth and position required) or need a VM. I am not fond of leaving such blackbox devices on my network which needs cloud! EDIT: OH and I remember the issue with the control software due to MangoDB drama.

      It is used for now on guest only network, sure I use Wireguard on top but still, find it annoying. And tbh, it has been suggested and the to-go solution but I notice that people are just blindly recommending what they read chatty techie’s blogs.

      thanks @Palitu!
