3. I don't think you're understanding what the contentions about consumer grade routers are. Make no mistake: consumer grade routers are a massive security risk, and continue to be to this day. They have no incentive to respond to and mitigate CVEs. They frequently have hardwired credentials. They don't have robust networking tools. They are common targets for hacks for these reasons. Regarding throughput, yes, 10gb is quite a bit. It'd probably be somewhat troublesome to get a home router with those kinds of physical ports (though CPU throughput would be trivial, see Intel's latest offerings. The n100 range can saturate any reasonable connection, including IPS, which you don't have). It's just not necessary, though. I am a power user, software engineer, hosting ~50 docker containers, many with custom code on 300mbps. No slowdown. No saturation. Furthermore, a cheap enterprise AP from eBay, even on wifi 5, is vastly superior to your Verizon AP. I'm not a networking professional. I installed OpnSense and connected a ruckus AP. Done. 1. If you had a decent AP, zigbee interference wouldn't be an issue, wink emoji.
