Modern OpenWRT router recommendations (EU, Germany)? (slrpnk.net)

Hey, I am looking for a router to use as a mesh device behind a Fritzbox.

In the future I may use it as the main device.

I am looking for something good, open, Wifi 6 or higher, with good support.

Break it into multiple devices. Get a router upstream and then get a switch and some APs. If you can't run cables look into mesh.

For WiFi 6 devices look here: https://openwrt.org/toh/views/toh_available_16128_ax-wifi

To be honest with you wifi 6 doesn't offer that big of leap from WiFi 5. It is a little faster but devices need to support it.
