TP-Link ER605
I was kind of in a hurry due to router failure and people working from home and did not investigate well; I am super disappointed in one item. Their DHCP does not have a DNS like dnsmasq and I cannot understand how such a critical component could have been left out. So now I am probably going to set up a separate DHCP with dnsmasq, which is ridicules during these days and times. Other than that one simple feature, I like the product. I also bought a dual band WIFI access point from TP-Link as well. It has mesh capability, but I may never use mesh capability. I am coming from a 15 year old router that I had DD-WRT loaded and for sure I already miss the custom abilities. But the main thing I am interested in is the multiple WAN ports of which there are 3 potentials and two are configurable to be LAN or WAN. The cell router I am using is a DIGI WR11, reclaim from work trash. I bought an EIOTClub SIM (Just google it) and it allows me to buy data on the fly or just let it expire and buy it when I need it. I tested it and it started working minutes after the purchase of data.
I'm still playing with it at this time, because, well time `,~)
