Hey /r/Sysadmin! What do you use for your home router? 2026 Edition
Synology RT6600AX. 2.5Gb Wan port, Solid Mesh WiFi, Vlans, AV, apps, URL filtering. Updates from a serious company. ITs not a Palo Alto but . . . That'll do pig. That'll do. I use a BASIC Motorola DOCSIS modem in Passthrough mode. I don't trust providers equpiment even as a door stop.

Modem upgrade?
Tired the Starlink router for about 1 day. Hated it... No real control of anything and the range really sucked. Bought a Synology RT6600AX and several of their smaller routers to mesh and love them. That said, I wouldn't really buy them now as they are a bit on the old tech side now. As someone ment

Central Ohio random connection problems
I -think- I figured out the problem. While all this was going on, I was downloading eXoDOS..... all 650 gigs of it. Once the transfer completed, I didn't have any more problems the rest of the evening. I've never had a router spaz out before while a massive transfer was active. I saw a firmware upda

In light of the government's warning about TP-Link routers being compromised and all the other negative news about them, would use of a VPN or hardware firewall like Firewalla or Ubiquity do any good?
Try Synology RT2600ac or RT6600ax Router and add an external NVMe SSD to run their Threat Prevention App Add-on (Suricata IPS Based). Great router and firewall and IPS for the money and easy to manage. Gets daily updates for security. https://www.synology.com/en-us/products/compare/routers

Recommendation for Router and AP setup
I’m using a Synology rt6600ax with 3 mr2200ac and 1 rt2600ac (discontinued) mesh points. We have an old house with plaster walls and WiFi was a nightmare - this setup solved our problems. The rt2600ac and 2 mr220ac are setup with wired backhaul to the main Synology 6600ax router, with one mr2200 run

Regretting purchasing the UDR7 because of slow speeds
Dang. I was going to get rid of my Synology RT6600AX + WRX560 pair so I can get 2.5gbps but after reading multiple reports of slower speeds, I wonder if I should wait till they get a firmware solution.

Can I use LACP to support 2gbit from my modem?
Right now, my network stack is pretty meh. Currently using Synology RT6600ax and MR2200 because I bought when Unifi was impossible to find. I have the Juniper switch on my rack, which is my new hub for all the wired devices. However, now that I'm ramping up my homelab, I suspect that I'll be either

Newbie to Fiber Internet— what to expect?
I've been out of the 'consumer' router market for over a decade, last recommendation I was making to people was the Synology because the software package was above and beyond anything any other vendor was doing. You could use it to run a VPN, local file sharing, all sorts of packages thanks to Synol

HomeKit and Synology Router Configuration
I run a RT 6600ax with a wired back haul RT6600ax AP in the basement since release. No issues to report outside of the "normal" HK issues. 18.3 seems to really be wonky but becoming more stable with time. Routers as AIR are running default settings with threat prevention active. Latest software rele

HomeKit and Synology Router Configuration
@ OP, i also use the synology RT6600ax w/ a wifi mesh synology 2200ac, (renting so can't make it ethernet connection), as a mesh device. I hate the 2200ac, only needed it for 5 devices, but it takes over almost all, even those in the same room as the RT6600ax, with nowhere to select which devices i
