Do you guys have any suggestions for a 1gig ethernet modem that openwrt or ddwrt supports? Edit: Apparently the device that im looking for is called an access point not a modem

Maybe check out the Asus TUF-ax4200 gaming modem/router? Just bought one and it’s been an awesome upgrade to my old AC modem/router. Wifi6/AX, 4 core, good ram, 1x 2.5GbE WAN and 4x1GbE LAN. Has USB to take a mobile SIM for dual WAN/failover. ASUSs software is very good, but it is on the support list for openwrt once Asus stop supporting it.

Asus TUF-AX4200 is a router/AP, not a modem/router.

Meets definition of a modem/router depending on what physical connection and protocols your ISP provides.

My Ethernet WAN connects to the ISPs NTU (optical fibre network termination unit), but WAN is capable of negotiating PPPoE, PPTP or L2TP with PAP/CHAP. Can also Dual WAN, Port forward, NAT.

The documentation is a little lacking. And no ADSL/VDSL etc. but it meets reqs for some.
