The only wireless device on my network is my phone lol

just use OpenBSD like a normal person

Retard

Help me out Any Forumsrunts. I'm replacing the Linksys AP (green circle) with a better OpenWRT flashed AP and I want to wall mount it. Pic is our spare bedroom at the northern corner of our house.
I would like to place it where the red rectangle is but I'm afraid that will limit the 2.4GHz shining through the window. Should I instead place it where the yellow rectangle is?
5GHz is no concern since at 160MHz it's LoS only anyway and I will have 1 AP per room at low power.

Sorry bro I don't have enough router discussion for an entire general. Your choice will hardly matter for home use as long as you can install *wrt.

>like a normal person
are you autistic? i just use whatever OS comes with the fucking router

user, OpenBSD is a perfectly normal OS for perfectly normal people, I'm sorry you got filtered by it
