If you want to be able to segment the network to provide fast internet for work, parental controls for the kids, limited access for guests and IoT devices, and have flexible wireless without designed obsolesce, then you probably want to buy separate devices.



Wow this is helpful but also went over my head. Where would the best place be to go shopping for this stuff?

Is it worth buying their recommended router? Or are there better options? TIA.
