Was rather shocked to find BT hubs don’t allow you to change DNS servers anymore and force you to use their own ones, so I can’t properly setup adguard.

What routers are people using now that are reliable and will let me control my own network configuration

    I like mikrotik, but if you’re not familiar with routers and their configurations, then it’s going to be a steep learning curve.

    The hex S is wonderful. I don’t have one but I keep going back to look at it and weigh my options.

    I don’t need another router, I really don’t. But it’s so nice! But I don’t need it!

    I have Juniper, Cisco, watchguard, sonicwall, ubiquiti… So many routers and firewalls, I really do not need another one.

    But I want one.

      Can confirm, I bit the bullet for a CR2004 last year and it took me a couple of weeks at least to set it up the way I wanted. Powerful, but steep with a capital S.
