Once is happenstance. Twice is coincidence. Three times is enemy action.

I have been using Mikrotik for more than 15 years and it’s true that they have so many options that they can feel overwhelming.

But they also have a setup wizard that allows you to configure a basic AP file with a single network and shared internet (NAT) in a few clicks, quite similar to standard routers.

What is the issue you find difficult, ongoing setup and maintenance after initial setup?

I’m asking with good faith, there’s also third party management software for Mikrotik and RouterOS that could help cover your needs.

Another promising iOS app is Memmy:

Out of spite against blizzard I started using private WoW servers a few months ago.

I settled on one called Chromiecraft for several reasons:

• The server code Is open source.
• It has a huge European presence.
• Non profit.

Ironically, Palantir Technologies is an US company. 😁

For big bookstores in France you have FNAC and in Spain FNAC and Casa del Libro. I’m sure they’re a dime a dozen in every country.

It would be easier to help if you stated an area you are interested in (Benelux, DACH, Scandinavia, Mediterranean, Baltic…).
