OpenWRT Supported Router

[TinTinSnowy]

Hello there. I am using D-Link DIR 1260 in AP Mode to my JioFiber Router. D-Link Router was perfectly stable for 2 months. Now it's gets powered off on it's own once every day at random times. I am not able to figure out the cause. I'll get it replaced but I need a new router to run in AP mode. Any suggestions? How is the new Gigabit Edition of Mi Router?

Could be because of heat. I got the Mi 4a last week, it's pretty good.

I don't like Mi router. Previously i purchased Mi 4c router and it is very bad, can't even provide 30mbps and range is also very poor. Better go for TP-Link Archer A6/C6.

This is true and it can only do ~250Mbps on 5Ghz but you're also paying less than half of your suggestions.

But the Mi 4A gigabit router is also listed for 2199₹. How it is half the price? Moreover there are only 2 port on mi router whereas 4 in TP-Link and better software support.

It was 1699 last week? and C6 was closer to 3000.

Wait for upcoming sale. It would be back to 1699 hopefully.

Is Mi Router the best choice? I am comfortable paying upto 3K.

A big no to Mi router if your budget is 3k.

AC is running most of the time. I doubt it's because of overheating.
