    I got a lot of exposure to MikroTik’s route/switch devices when I worked at a WISP and really came to love them.

    Wireless: Aruba, Cisco, Meraki

    I know what you meant when you said “Wireless”, but I’m going to go with Siklu for their Kilo EtherHaul 70/80GHz radios that can no shit do 10Gbps links up to like 10 miles in ideal conditions.

    Wait, Cisco == Meraki ;)

    I work for Aruba (outing myself on my first post on Lemmy, smooth move dude) but I see Mist marketing themselves everywhere in the space, interested on people’s take on them.

    Juniper for R/S, Palo for firewalls. At home I use pfsense and UniFi APs and in that environment they’re great.
