port question
-
Get guys, I run a complicated network at home and I'm looking to move from a power hungry r210ii to a little more reasonable router (probably a nuc)
Current setup has WAN, LAN and OPT. But, I'm not really sure I need the OPT anymore.
What're, at this point in networking, using vlan and whatnot to segregate networks, is the actual benefit to a 3 port system vs a 2 Ethernet port system) (just WAN and LAN). I have a bunch of IoT devices I'd like to keep from reaching internet but some devices (like Google hubs) in IoT network need internet. And I'd like a separate network for all the rest of our day to day laptops phones etc.

I would go with a small unit that comes with 3 LAN ports and having an looking eye forward it should
maybe coming by site with 3 x 2.5 GBit/s ports.WAN /LAN /DMZ / (WLAN)
CPU 4C/4T w/ 4 GB RAM
CPU 4C/8T w/ 8 GB RAMOr if the RAM module will be able to change
it may be the best option! (SO-DIMM)If you need a fall back line (3G/LTE) it should comes sorted with an SIM socket and/or
miniPCIe or M.2 socket inside.If you want to use the captive portal with
FreeRadius it should be also sorted with a
miniPCIe or M.2 for a wireless card (WiFi)It should be able to connect to the console
in any kind. Serial DB9-RS232 or RJ45 CON
or USB CON port. For solving out any problems.Netgate itself are offering smaller units in their
shop. Perhaps there is something for your needs
in? Have look please: Netgate ShopWhat is your entire WAN speed?
What packages will you run?
Do you using PPPoE?
