I have recently got 1Gib FTTP installed and I have a TP-Link WiFi 6 router which is fine.
I would like to get some thing with more configuration options:-
I would like to run a VPN, I do have a VPN sub and I run it as an app on 1 PC but I would like to cover my whole network or at least some of it, PC's and media sticks
I have decent wired coverage but I would like to supplement it with wireless coverage for phones, tablets and IOT devices.
I'm thinking of an old PC with PfSense/OPNsense/OpenWRT to run as the main router and then with a Mesh system added to it. Can a Mesh system be added to another router - all on the one subnet (I'm not a networking expert, I think that is what it is called) so that I don't get into port forwarding and double NAT issues.
