~950sqft house (6300sqft property) - tired of Eero 6e Pro's and need guidance on how to move to a better system.

I'm sure someone here will give you a much more detailed answer, but you should easily be able to cover a house that small with a single router. My older Synology RT2600ac covered my entire two story 2600sq. ft. house plus my yard with no problem. Your garage may be far enough away that a wired AP c

Looking for a recommendation for home use.

This. R650s are not cheap but well worth the money. Went from a Synology RT2600AC to two R650s (one at front, the other at the back) to cover a two story 2000sqft detached, and a basement. Lot size 40x115. Amazing coverage end to end.

Ongoing Google Fiber WiFi Issues – Need Advice

I bought a Synology RT2600ac. Main attraction for that one was the built-in parental controls to keep my kids off the weird parts of the internet. It's a pretty nice router overall too. You can do a lot of cool stuff with it that most normal consumer routers can't/don't do. EDIT: Looks like it's not

Advise for purchase

I came from using a Synology RT2600AC in a little larger single floor house. I think it actually provided slightly better coverage than my U7 Pro. I don't know how the 560 compares but you may not be gaining anything coverage wise with the switch if you plan on only one AP and may actually lose. It'

Dream router 7 equivalent that maybe is less overkill for me?

I have had my UDR7 for about 8 months now. It replaced a Synology RT2600ac. I was going to just upgrade to a RT6600ac and stay with what had worked well. Glad I didn't. The UDR7 is so much more. It is like the big iron stuff I use to use at work only pared down for home use. I love it. VLANs firewal

I just can't contain my excitement

Chiming in here to say: It should be possible to use your own equipment, but I don't know that you'll get any support from them on the matter. I'm currently using the modem/router they provide as it was free and meets my needs, but a couple of months ago the first modem/router they gave me crapped o

Your own equipment for FTTH?

I have 2x Synology RT2600Ac (wired back haul) Will eventually switch to unifi but for the time being the Synology routers seem to do the job well.

In light of the government's warning about TP-Link routers being compromised and all the other negative news about them, would use of a VPN or hardware firewall like Firewalla or Ubiquity do any good?

Try Synology RT2600ac or RT6600ax Router and add an external NVMe SSD to run their Threat Prevention App Add-on (Suricata IPS Based). Great router and firewall and IPS for the money and easy to manage. Gets daily updates for security. https://www.synology.com/en-us/products/compare/routers

Recommendation for Router and AP setup

I’m using a Synology rt6600ax with 3 mr2200ac and 1 rt2600ac (discontinued) mesh points. We have an old house with plaster walls and WiFi was a nightmare - this setup solved our problems. The rt2600ac and 2 mr220ac are setup with wired backhaul to the main Synology 6600ax router, with one mr2200 run
