Suggestions for wireless access points (lemm.ee)

I am currently in the market for some wireless access points and thought I'd get some suggestions here first. I am currently using some old eero pro's as access points with a firewalla router. The firewalla isn't old and I am happy with it so I am not looking to replace it with something at this time.

Are there suggestions for more privacy focused networking equipment? Or is that just a dumb question to ask?

At that point why not just use a ubiquiti/microtik ap though?

Maybe they just want to play with open WRT? Maybe they have extra hardware that they want to use as access points?

OP literally said they were looking for APs to use with their router/firewall

They said they were looking for privacy-focused, open source options. So get a Unifi AP and flash OpenWRT on it, and that fits the bill.
