what router do you use /g/?
I've been researching wireless routers and I've concluded all consumer models are shit, and designed to fail in 1-2 years. I think I'm going to try putting together a setup using separate components from Ubiquity, which sells enterprise-level systems, but which are actually pretty reasonably priced for the lower end gear.

On that note, is it a good idea to buy a separate modem, router, firewall, switch, access point or get one of those all-in-one solutions? Space and money not being the issue.

can I pfsense that thing?

not sure

I'd recommend doing this if you have the knowledge to set it up. I use a Mikrotik RB2011 and a Ubiquiti Unifi AC pro. Been flawless since I set it up last year.
DIR-825 from 2008 running DD-WRT
handles an average of 500+GBs of bandwidth a month over FTTB.
Don't see myself upgrading till AC wave 2 series routers become the norm.

wrt1900ac with openwrt
I've got this thing running pfSense as a router/firewall/local DNS/PXE box. Switching duties are handled by real switches (8-port near the router and modem, 24-port in the office), and wifi is a wrt320n in dumb AP mode with DDWRT.

Suits my needs and costed me less than a bottle of mid-shelf vodka.

No. Mikrotik primarily want to sell RouterOS and have people invest in that ecosystem. They want people to spend time learning RouterOS so they'll buy a higher license when they hit a wal. It isn't malicious - there's nothing stopping people from porting pfsense. But they [Mikrotik] have no reason to do it, and one big reason not to do it.

I use the same as this guy. I was running VyOS on it for a short period, but the IPv6 configuration with my PPPoE connection wasn't easy, and would sometimes just fail to get an address. I could have figured it out, I'm sure - but pfsense provided me a single checkbox, so I stuck with that.
I was actually using a Ubiquiti Edgerouter Lite before that. But an issue with DNS bugged me, and their weird reluctance to comply with the GPL was the final nail in that coffin.

I installed one of these at my office recently. It was supposed to be a quickfix until we got a replacement but its been there for a month with no hickups.

I wish IPTV worked better but other than that it's bretty gud.

Separate is good. A separate switch in particular will allow you to get much faster throughput with wired devices.
One EdgeRouter Lite and one EdgeRouter X SFP in VRRP setup.

Just get something with a Broadcom chipset.

running dd-wrt or openwrt this thing is amazing
