What hardware would you recommend for AP’s and dedicated Firewalls? I really value open-source so bonus points if it works without blobs or the hardware is open or has available schematics.

Altough a bit expensive I have looked at Protectli firewalls as an option as the option to run OPNsense and coreboot is attractive.

For an AP, the Banana PI BPI-R3 (R4 if I’m patient) sounds interesting being open hardware and supporting OpenWRT. I am however curious on if it would run on LibreCMC.

    From their FAQ. So it seems there are free 802.11n APs…

    If the device has a DSL modem or an 802.11ac wifi chipset, the libreCMC project can’t support these devices. There are currently no fully free (libre) 802.11ac or DSL modem chipsets
