If you still think you need 3 routers I don't know what to say.
I didnt really say they were bad, i said they were the best semi managed switches in terms of features. I only said that they werent better in quality than other brands being cisco's lower end. routers also route at nanosecond speed. The difference between CPU and switch is CPU is frequency based for speed while switch has a large bus and a paralised core so it handles more numbers better up to a point. With low numbers of non processed packets the CPU wins, with large numbers of non processed packets, switch wins. When you have to process packets, switch takes a long time.I only recommend SG300 switches because they are a good inexpensive layer 3 switch with low power draw. They readily can be had used. It has a 17 GIG backplane switch which should handle any home needs. Layer 3 switches switch at nanosecond speeds whereas routers route at millisecond speeds. Switches are faster than routers.
It does take some skill with a layer 3 switch as you are working at layer 3. Lots of IP addressing and networks.
How do I mange the wireless?
Turn it off on the routers you don't need Wireless on...
