hey so my recent internet outage has really underlined the fact that my ISP's supplied cable modem/router combo actually completely sucks at being a router therefore I am thinking of getting a separate one
However I haven't purchased a router in many years so I would like to ask if anyone has any advice, things to look out for, recommendations etc

I was looking at this Tenda BE12 Pro for £140 tendacn.com/uk/product/BE12Pro
It seems to be good?? Described as overkill by a friend I asked which I guess maybe for my 1 bed flat but I want to get one that'll still do the job when and if I manage to move to a bigger place

It's supported by OpenWRT which seems like a good option to have
I like the vertical design, works better with the space I have
Downsides: Dual band not tri, does that matter?
Less known brand but they have been around a long time
