Trying to setup a new and better network in the house. Ditching my ISP router because its just a mess and I want better security.

I keep being suggested Unifi as a setup. Its pricey but I am told its well worth the cost.

My main concern is the privacy side.

How reputable is Ubiquity when it comes to handling data? Any ideas?

Openwrt is my main option. I am looking at it a lot.

But if I'm not at home there's noone else that can service the router. That's my main issue

What kind of servicing do you expect it needs that can't wait until you're home, that wouldn't be fixed by the old "turn it off and on again"?
