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 :-)
Get a somewhat recent Fritzbox and connect all your hardware to this device and then configure it to use your ISP-provided as uplink in the Fritzbox configuration. Since you already use an AVM repeater it should work well together with a Fritzbox.
This is definitively a solid and straight forward plan, i like.
