Hi Lemmy Community,

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?

Thank you in advance :-)

    If you want a really good, capable firewall that’s easy to configure, go with OpnSense.

    If you want granular control and [near] enterprise grade features for a low price, go with Mikrotik.
