I REALLY hate to do this or even recommend this but I don't have the time right now to convince my neighbor to do the full 'preferred stack' of broke out network devices as I typically suggest (dedicated pfSense router, dedicated 8 port procurve switch, and dedicated ubiquiti AP) so I come here to seek advise on a good-ish all-in-one network device to replace their less than performant current setup.
Any suggestions, I was gonna suggest to them a ubiquiti LR AP but then saw he is using a all-in-one linksys of some sort that he paid like $200 for (ouch) so he still is gonna need the router/switch functionality as well as the AP capability.
Any help/tips would be greatly appreciated. Again it pains me to do this but I just don't have the time to convince to spend the $ as it wil;l be worth it to them in the long run and talk him through a proper network setup right now and he is in a hurry. Last neighbor I did the proper stack for I have not heard a THING from for a year and 1/2...which is a GOOD thing. :-D
Hope this suggestion does not bite me in the arse.
