Toying with the idea of ubiquiti again... do I need it?

[DHR]

Currently running the BT home hub and a couple of their discs, with pihole on a zero for dns duties.

Everyone in the house is full time remote now, so stability is key, the BT kit hasn't been too bad though.

Why the itch and some wants:

* Always got by with networking, never been hot on it though so the practice is always good.
* I have a couple of external services I really want to get going with remote access, namely roon arc
* I hate having what I class as "untrusted" devices on my network, e.g. yi home cameras, hikvision kit etc.

I know there are things like pfsense but an all in one solution would be the dream, needs to last a good few years too.

Thoughts? Don't do it?! Why haven't you already !? I'm open to an onslaught of advice!

I would have but I'm honestly open to other options too

Mesh wireless, sadly the nature of the house doesn't lend itself to running ethernet (would be the dream!)

Edit - For the cost involved and my priorities, I'd be leaning toward the pfsense setup, but then its what to do about wifi and the equivalent of the discs.
