I've been so impressed with Ubiquiti that I've decided to target FreeBSD for my current side project. Their camera system is wonderful. Their DreamMachine is a massive upgrade for my home network. Their APs are rock solid, no hassle, just work, and it integrates so well. I have my work / home on different subnets. I have the kids on a different subnet and behind a firewall providing some protection against ads.
Very happy customer here.

As much as I wish Ubnt are using BSD in their product, which they are not. I am understanding how FreeBSD relates here.
There's a port of Unifi network controller for both FreeBSD and OpenBSD.

I guess not officially supported but I use them, they work well.
Interesting - but I just run it in docker. I also run opnsense, which is a FreeBSD, and I find it very high friction.

An assumption, I made. Failed, it was.
I always advise ppl against ubiquiti devices. They are not open at all, its yet another proprietary router/switch/wifi/nas/etc
