Was rather shocked to find BT hubs don’t allow you to change DNS servers anymore and force you to use their own ones, so I can’t properly setup adguard.

What routers are people using now that are reliable and will let me control my own network configuration

ubiquiti are too sales-pushy imo

Ive never bought from them in a professional sense, but I also work with sales, so my bar for pushy is higher than many.

I had an old unifi ap in a box, after flashing the latest firmware half the features disappeared (or started requiring a cloud key / some other shitty upsell)

the hw was perfectly capable of ipv6 dhcp relaying or whatever it was, just locked behind a different price tier + another physical device

fuck em
