Router Recommendation

[david_m]

Any recommendation for a gigabit router to connect R550 Aps? This is for basic home use. Essentially need gigabit speed, firewall, DHCP.

I read a lot about Ubiquiti routers. Esp Edge Er-4. Any suggestions for a router appreciated.

I concur on the ER4 for SOHO use as long as you don't need a high throughput VPN. It is one of the few (maybe only) Gb speeds for basic VLAN, NAT, firewall (including zone-based) for under $1000.

Hi David,

I'll recommend you to go for Fortinet Firewall,

benefits
1. Easy to configure.
2.You are getting Next gen firewall option which is  a plus.
3.Affordable (You can choose one Under $1000).

4.Reliable.

5. Some extra features like WAN load balancing, SD WAN, VPN etc.

Hi Harry

what model? When I looked up online they are all in the several thousands of dollars. This is just for a simple home use ... 🙂
