  The coinage had intrinsic value, being made of metals with a commodity value. So it’s not like holding a paper banknote when a government collapses. People would still have used them to hoard savings, for trade and melted down as a source of precious metals.

  I’m using Mikrotik and Ruckus. Would recommend both. I like that they are both at the level of reliability that I don’t think about them at all for months at a time. I update quarterly or less and they require no other attention from me. They also work well with my centralized data collection and alerting via LibreNMS.

  OPNSense would be high on my list of alternatives when I reevaluate next time. And all Mikrotik would be a good option for me as well. Their Wi-Fi gear is not as strong as Ruckus or Ubiquiti, but they are super solid.

  The Unifi ecosystem is a bit too centralized for me. I don’t want to create an account in order to use the hardware.

  We still quote this game in our house at random moments. “Willie know what to do!” and “Klayman, up here!”
