    I was a bit worried about buying there but it turns out to be ok, they sent it using dhl, I could see tracking info and after three years later the qotom box is still working no problem.

    Poe+ powered switch recommendations

    I have the GS105PE and it works fine for me and I guess that it will work perfect in your scenario, I have a different one I guess a bit more complex and it works just fine. My area suffers a lot by power outages so I had to get a portable gas generator to power a few devices (1 firewall with...

I don't doubt upgrading to a newer router will be a big improvement considering the old routers they have now but I...
