I fell down the rabbit hole of OPNsense + OpenWrt for a DIY setup. The end result is great, but considering the amount of time I spent plus the money I ended up spending, I wish I could go back in time and just go with Ubiquiti instead.

You don't need to be a certified network professional to use Ubiquiti gear. You can buy a UniFi Dream Router, follow the setup guide in the app, and you're pretty much good to go. Will you be using the hardware to its full potential? Probably not. Do you need to care? Also probably not.
It's kind of like my grandma using an iPhone. She has no idea how AirDrop works, but that doesn't stop her from using and enjoying the phone.
At the same time, if you know a little about networking or you're the type who likes to tinker, Ubiquiti gear can be extremely powerful, just like an iPhone can be for a power user. The hardware is generally very decent, even if it's not always the absolute best-performing hardware available. It can do probably 95% of what most users want, the software ecosystem is polished, and their support is pretty decent.
But, just like Apple, Ubiquiti doesn't give you full control over everything. For example, compared with OpenWrt, UniFi has some limitations when it comes to fine-tuning Wi-Fi performance and roaming:
- With usteer, you can specify exactly how much stronger another AP needs to be, such as only roaming when the other AP is 8 dB better.
- You can fine-tune roaming SNR/RSSI thresholds instead of mostly relying on UniFi's roaming logic.
- You have much more control over band steering, such as exactly when clients should be encouraged to leave 2.4 GHz for 5 GHz.
- You can independently tune things like TX power and signal thresholds for each radio/AP.
Are those missing fine-tuning options actually important for most people? Probably not.
And that's kind of the point. Most Apple users don't care that Apple doesn't expose every possible setting either. They just want something that works well, is easy to manage, and does almost everything they need.
