Any Poastards using a third party internet router, rather than the ones provided by your internet company? I've got two wall units from [REDACTED] that heat up like the center of a Hot Pocket. And they're *theremin noise* "AI POWERED". So I can't stop them "optimizing" my router assignment based on device location, which kicks my stationary desktop offline once an hour. I can't ask the techs to fix it, because it's all "AI" which they have no backdoor access for.

Do people still make third-party routers?

@Eleutheria2 I use a couple Linksys WRT1900ACSs I got a few years back. Flashed them with DD-WRT and haven't had any issues. They're on the pricier side, but the Linksys WRT series has had great community firmware support since at least the WRT54G came out. Check out DD-WRT if you're sick of shitty router firmware.
