For example, privacy violating linksys or netgear, or devices with components running improper firmware with a 14 year old vulnerability?

The reason that I ask, although I don’t want this to impact the quality of answers, is that I’m shopping for a new router that is secure and private but rather than paying commercial and industrial prices I would rather get a consumer router and overwrite it’s software.

    I am running a tp link talon on openwrt 23. It runs great.I highly recommend it.It also has some additional ad blocker plugins and some other fantastic features. The only reason to not run openwrt. It’s because you need the absolute latest hardware. I would also not run in an enterprise environment where security is absolutely Paramount, and you need observability. As well as centralized management.
