At the moment i got a router-modem-combination from my ip and i want to be more independent.
Therefore i want to use the provided hardware as bridge and buy my own router to manage my network.
In my home network i got
2 Desktop PCs (cable)
1 Switch (cable)
Several WiFi devices including smart home devices
Pi-Hole
Mac Mini as a linux Server (cable)
Synology NAS (cable)
AVM repeater
Before i start my own extensive research, may you recommend me a Router for my setup?
I use Asus routers, they have good hardware. But then I install Fresh Tomato on them to give them full professional routing capabilities. It’s amazing what’s included in that, including vlan support, dns masquerade support etc etc.
