BT Home Hub Router Upgrade


[link to this post]
 
Hi

I have the BT fibre broadband with the latest home hub router. I want to replace the router with something better though. I have a lot of devices and find I have to reboot this router every few days when something loses communication. I'd also like something that can support VPN.

What do you suggest?

Have you tried splitting the wifi into 2.5 and 5 with separate SSID�s and p/words for both first ?

Sorry, I don't understand. Do you want the router to have a VPN client so it can connect to the internet via a VPN server, or do you want remote clients to dial into your network using a VPN server in your router?

The former - I want to be able to enter the details of a VPN client onto the router, for outgoing connections

I must admit, I thought I�d seen a screen for this within the 6�s pages somewhere ???

(Mind you, my memory is dreadful)

I've looked but I cant find anything.

I would prefer to upgrade. I've lost confidence in this router.

My router supports this, however it's a software router, pfsense, running on a virtual machine on my server.

Does this help? https://www.cloudwards.net/best-vpn-router/
