Iirc, Broadcom (big surprise I'm sure lmao) is also shit with Linux support

The prompt says "can boot", not "is usable with". If it gets to the kernel and then hangs that still counts.

Don't a lot of routers use Broadcom SoCs? Things like DD-WRT and OpenWRT run the Linux kernel.

Yes, Broadcom Wi-Fi driver support on Linux sucks, however.

From what I hear it's best to avoid Broadcom-based routers if you plan to install OpenWRT.

Yeah, the first thing I change on a new laptop is the broadshit WiFi chip. Intel is the our lord and savior.
