I can't recommend them either, but I am happy they at least are
beginning to ship
a new kernel with the right stuff in it. I imagine all their drivers
need BQL, though.

Another recent disappointment was the ubnt edgerouter 12, a very
incompetently implemented product. Tons of offloads, and I was unable
to get NAT to work in an
hour of trying.
