I was wondering weather the 2.4GHz problem is not present in X-Wrt as they are using the same drivers? No lags in the internet connection?
Where can i get R6220 for that price( Rs 1999)?
Assuming you're talking about https://github.com/x-wrt/x-wrt
there isn't much different from what OpenWrt provides, based the 50 commits returned by
git log --format=oneline x-wrt/master ^openwrt/master

Is netgear R6120 a viable alternative for Rs 2100 as i can find R6220 for rs 2900 only?

What are they? [edit, answered above, pity amazon won't ship item to Aus]
WR1200JS
Fine with 4 lan ports , wlan 2.4 and 5 Ghz
I wish they were available in my country, or at least available on AliExpress, Amazon's shipping prices to my country, due to them not officially supporting my country, make this impractical.
I bought a HooToo HT-ND001, put OpenWRT on, and found that it only brings up 1 core / 2 threads (CPU0 and CPU1). I checked the cpu under the heatsink and it was an MT7621AT, so I decide the bootloader was not initializing the second core (to get 2C/4T). After some disassembling I made a 1 bit patch to the boot loader that "fixed" the initialization (by hard setting it to try to initialize a second core), and flashed it back successfully.
I've now got the full 2C/4T (CPUs 0-3). Having had it open, clearly budget construction, but a lot of hardware for $24
I put more detailed info here:

Looks like a strong competitor to the Xiaomi mi 3.
I assume, you could simply flash a recent openwrt-image from the UI of the HooToo, ?
And how much flash(NAND/NOR)/RAM does it have ?
16MB flash and 128MB RAM, as noted above. From what I read, you currently need to perform the initial flash of the HT-ND001 in 2 steps. First, in the oem gui you flash the initramfs image (followed by a reboot), then from openwrt, the sysupgrade image.
Archer c1200 (Archer c5 v1.2) the ones with 3 antennas. They can be converted to archer c7 AC1750Mbps with a firmware flash. Bang for the buck.
EDIT : The c1200 and c5 seems to be very different devices with different model numbers yet exact same looks as the c5

a) you can't get them anymore, as the currently sold h/w revisions are Broadcom based and unusable.
b) This is incorrect, yes - you can flash a wrong firmware image and make it show the c7 markings/ only accept c7 firmwares, but that doesn't magically make the 5 GHz hardware use three streams instead of two, nor does it touch the calibration data. --> pure placebo effect, without functional changes or improvements.

Removed , delete post please.
Can we get a current state list of today?
In greece a onion omega 2 cost around 60 euros.
I wanna buy a dump acc with at least dual-band.
I was looking to buy the HooToo AC1200 but the shipments from the us cost more then the device if anybody has a EU source link it or pm me.
So if u have any devices that u would recommend tell me..my internet speed is 200/200 btw.
Please use this topic for recommendations only.
For questions please open a new topic.
I would recommend the PC Engines APU2 works even for 1 Gbit (and when using PPPoE too).
See OpenWrt APU2.
+1; although, not really "cheap" .
