I’m slowly moving into the self hosted mindset specially for privacy, security and sailing the high seas. This community has been invaluable but I’d like to know which routers you use that fit well with this and plays nice with the services we’re hosting.
I’m mostly thinking about wifi support, openwrt, vpn (not a hard requirement), vlans, etc. I know probably a networking community would be a better place for this question, but I think this might be useful for other “self-hosters”

For several years I’ve been using an ASUS RT-68AC running Merlin for my router/AP. Honestly no complaints.
I’ve recently switched to using OpnSense for my router on an old Dell mini PC and switched the ASUS to AP only mode.
