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?

      That explanation is misleading because:

      1. OpenWrt does firewalling and routing very well;
      2. If you’ve a small / normal network and OpenWrt will provide you with a much cleaner open-source experience and also allow for all the customization you would like;
      3. There are routers specifically made to run OpenWrt, so it isn’t only a replacement firmware.
