Trying to setup a new and better network in the house. Ditching my ISP router because its just a mess and I want better security.

I keep being suggested Unifi as a setup. Its pricey but I am told its well worth the cost.

My main concern is the privacy side.

How reputable is Ubiquity when it comes to handling data? Any ideas?

    Unifi is great ive and pretty reputable you can do local account etc but if you want a cheaper option and the potential for more privacy id reccomend using openwrt on one of the supported devices you can find info about it here https://openwrt.org/

      Openwrt is my main option. I am looking at it a lot.

      But if I’m not at home there’s noone else that can service the router. That’s my main issue

        What kind of servicing do you expect it needs that can’t wait until you’re home, that wouldn’t be fixed by the old “turn it off and on again”?
