Ask HN: Open source, hackable router?

1 points by skies 7y ago ↗ HN

Any recommendations on routers that run open source firmware (OpenWrt, Tomato, DD-WRT) with some basic firewall? Would be great if it could also run a PiHole. Tired of crappy routers running closed source firmware which also have abysmal security...

I just use a tp link router off the shelf and install openwrt on it. I haven't yet seen any routers that come with openwrt by default.

P.S. Never buy a ubiquiti devices router if you want to use openwrt.
