On a Mac list to which I have subscribed for many years, a poster knowledgeable about routers recommended the Synology RT2600AC, noting...
A little more $$, but Synology has brought their NAS security to their [new] router lineup. And because they're (1) new in the router market, and thus (2) not a household name, you get a lot of router for the money. Among other things, you can download router "apps" (extensions) from Synology's package center, including an app that implements extended intrusion detection, in addition to their built-in security.
Is there somewhere on this site that I could find advice on what steps to take in order to set up my Actiontec M1424WR Rev I GigE (purchased from Verizon about 5 years ago) as a gateway? I am a senior, but adept at following instructions and the senior to whom friends and neighbors come for help with their Macs. I can do this, but I recognize it's not going to be easy and could use a hand.
Many thanks.
BTW, found the link on which to click in order to benefit this site when I purchase the Synology and will use it.
