Will have to look at kea and corerad. What hardware do you use for the wireless links? Intel has been very hit or miss in my experience. And the misses suuuck, like after enough hosts connect, you get kernel panic on every new client connection, or all but the one device I needed a separate wlan for are compatible with the host. So, NixOS on a router that doesn’t have to be a wifi ap is extremely nice in my experience.


For wireless I started with the PC Engines miniPCI cards, but moved to a seperate AP for wifi6, and because hostapd was not fun.

https://openwrt.org/toh/tp-link/eap615-wall is the device I use as an AP, which runs OpenWRT.


I also have a separate AP with OpenWRT (UniFi with OpenWRT).
