    What small form wired router with VPN server and client do you recommend?

    An EdgeRouter has already been recommended to me, but I'm not sure about it's ability to run a VPN server and be a VPN client. I'll be connecting an Asus ax86u as an access point in a different room. Thanks for your thoughts!

    Need help with installing two routers in house with limited ethernet cable

    Thanks for the help all. I think I've got my solution and made it out fairly unscathed! I'm going to come up with some way to get the AX86U in the garage.

    Need help with installing two routers in house with limited ethernet cable

    Please be patient with this one, networking is not my strong suit! My ISP is Telus in British Columbia. They provided an optical network terminal and a T3200M modem/router. The router stinks, but with their Optik TV (IPTV), I'm stuck with it. I'm trying to install two new routers into the...
