Best router for home use? (literature.cafe)
submitted 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) by gabe@literature.cafe to c/selfhosted@lemmy.world

I am planning to eventually build my own home server, and when I do I will hook it up via ethernet. But I do want to switch away from the generic FIOS router and use my own for more control over my data and security. Any recommendations?

Noob here. How fast can my LAN be with such a setup?

As fast as the slowest denominator in your LAN. So give the PC that you're going to host this on a decent Ethernet card and you should be flying.
