Having just researched this, I purchased the Dynalink AX3600 (DL-WRX36). While it’s not as simple as a drop in firmware reflash, it offered the best speed and performance for not significantly more effort; Wifi 6, USB 3.0 ports, and full MIMO antenna support.
I also considered the following:
- Buffalo WXR-5950AX12
- Linksys E8450 (5GHz ax only)
- Netgear WAX202
- Xiami AX9000
From my understanding, the impetus was that F5 submitted a CVE for a vulnerability, for an optional, “beta” feature that can be enabled. Dounin did not think a CVE should be submitted, since he did not considered it to be “production” feature.
That said, the vulnerability is in shipping code, regardless of whether it is optional or not, so per industry coding practices, it should either be patched or removed entirely in order to resolve the issue.
