Pfsense, Opensense and OpenWRT - what's the deal?
Hiya, just getting into networking and recently completed my Tp-link Omada stack, which I'm very pleased with. Have heard great thing about all three mentioned services above, but struggle to understand which to go for. Do they have different use cases? Is one easier than the other? Which one is recommended to begin with?
You're viewing a single thread.
This thread has reminded me that I have Ruckus APs that mesh. But support had been dropped because they are "old". Presumably there is no open source solution that I can flsh these with, still allowing me the meshing?
OpenWrt with 802.11r and 802.11s configured will work as a mesh network with roaming functionality.
