Hello, I am currently designing my first home network.
My scope is pretty basic, I want to replace my ISP's router because it is a piece of trash and put an ASUS RT/AC86U instead.
I was checking for some nice plug-ins for Asus routers, such as Diversion or Skynet, when I started thinking if adding a hardware firewall would make any sense. I must say I plan to setup a local network based cloud soon, probably with a Raspberry Pi and Next Cloud, though I may end up going with a more straight NAS setup.
I am a complete noob, just making my first steps reading and researching, so I am entirely open to consider anything you tell me.
