Hi Everyone,
Hoping to get a bit of guidance.
I am looking for a replacement router for my ISP equipment. It's FTTP / PPPoE
I've previously used Mikrotik and had good results, albeit not in the most straightforward of platforms. I am however leaning towards a 4011 as an upgrade.
What I want:
- 1G+ throughput
- PPPoE support
- VLAN support
- Policy Based Routing support with client VPN & killswitch (this is a must-have - I want to be able to configure specific VLAN/SSID to always route over a VPN and blackhole the traffic if VPN is down)
- Firewall/Application support
- Wifi nice to have, not essential
I've been looking at the Firewalla Gold, but it's very expensive compared to others plus shipping & availability outside the US is not great. Ubiquiti seems to have a solution but not so well documented.
Curious to hear what others have done for this - FWIW I don't want to run this on some old dell PC - I want good quality hardware designed for throughput
Thanks in advance for any advice!
What's the budget? And what are the bandwidth requirements?
I'd say budget wise up to say $/£ 300, though a lot of the stuff I've seen is under - the exception being the Firewalla Gold which is pushing $500 with taxes and shipping
It's a 1G FTTP connection, so somewhere around that ballpark. It's for home use, so doesn't need insane cross-vlan speed
Thanks
OK, so I'll put away the Palo Alto Firewall materials... :smug:
The tricky piece is the PBR requirement. The rest are par for course on consumer gear.
A search for "consumer wifi router PBR" gave me a link to a manual for a TL-ER6120 from TP-Link. They're going for around $150, looks like. Draytek Vigor products have the feature (at least in some models, I didn't check them all) and Netgear M6100 switches. A price check reveals that the Draytek is in your range and that I'm way, way off with the Netgear M6100, as it's around $3000+ :twitch:
