  Yeah. Even my old solid netgear got a firmware update that’s begging me to get the app now. Shobe that shit up your ass.

  At least give me a checkbox to stop bothering me

      Yeah that’s on my todo list. I’ve got 3 decent but old routers.

    It seems that way. I'd assume all Chinese devices are being backdoored via CCP incentives.

      Don’t buy ASUS, they have a terrible security record. At this point I would trust only MikroTik and Ubiquiti.

        Ubiquiti

        And they too aggressively push their cloud services and at least some point their management tool gave you ads on their other products.

  I was an idiot and bought a high end TPLink router, I can’t even use Vlans without signing up for their back door service.

  Hm, at least with their enterprise equipment you can completely disable Omada.
