Any privacy respecting alternatives to google WiFi? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

Hi all, in the slow process of degoogling one of the key points for me would be to remove the pucks I have been using for a few years for the WiFi mesh network at home. I know of a few alternatives but not a single one that respects my privacy (not gonna get rid of google just to switch to amazon), that allows me control of the network locally without accessing some backend of some company or anything. I don't quite need access from outside the network if that makes it easier to find some option.

Any ideas? I'm also slowly building the blocks needed at home for self hosting a bunch of stuff, and those would need to have access to the outside network of course. Maybe that needs to be considered too?

Ah... Mikrotek sounds interesting, would love to support a small European company. They seem to have nice hardware...

Yeah, the other site x) since I removed my accounts is a pain to visit, if anything at some point I'll do some search on the laptop to browse more comfortably.

Thanks for that other link! I have some reading to do... Lots to learn. Networking was never my forte, but alas, can't trust any company and need to build things on my own... So be it.
