Hello. I currently run openwrt on a NETGEAR R7800. I use it only for an Access Point that runs 3 SSIDs/2 Vlans with pfsense as my main router.
Anything better out there that can handle the above?

What's the issue with R7800?
Why is it no good for 3 SSIDs/2 Vlans with pfsense as your main router?
Or do you mean you want to combine both "an Access Point that runs 3 SSIDs/2 Vlans" and "pfsense as my main router" into one device?

If its working...what is the problem...moreover OpenWRT...R7800 is still great buddy...
with great specs...most of the new AX routers support is in progress..and development although fully
functional...for example i do like my Dynalink WRX36 running DDWRT but OpenWRT is not optimal for my needs so im running DDWRT on it..it was meant to replace my R7800, R7800 still good for my needs Razz
Lots of other AX routers choices with DDWRT support...some better then other... Cool
