Do i really need custom foss firmware?
Nope
I suppose pretty much any modern router will work eh?
As long as you can connect rj45 / patch cable to your WiFi-receiver I guess. If not you’re better off using one or more WiFi repeaters. It is just easier to setup. If you are unhappy with performance decrease the distance between repeaters and buy more of them. As long as there is no patch cable between them it will always only get slower with increasing distance and number of repeaters.
