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.

    Warning about Unifi and mesh. I’ve done mesh using AC Pro, U6 Pro, AC LR. Any combination produces significant latency spikes that I couldn’t resolve no matter what. Support forums have reports of this problem too without an obvious solution. Maybe the U6 Mesh doesn’t suffer from this. Or maybe you haven’t noticed because you don’t have a sensitive workload. Either way, based on my anecdote, I’d caution against doing mesh with Unifi.
