Hi all,

I need advice for buying a wireless router supporting recent wifi technology, a wan gigabitethernet port and some switched ports, and possibly supporting The Dude monitoring tool

Would you please advice some suitable models?

Thanks

Any ax wireless device. Some have only 2.4GHz wireless support, if you want/need fast wireless, then make sure you select a dual-band device.

Probably hAP ax3 fits the stated requirements best, there’s also hAP ax2. cAP ax has fewer ether ports, hAP ax lite and L009 only have 2.4GHz radios.

Not sure if dude is supported on/by newer devices. If it is and you intent to run the dude on device you’re asking about, then look for a device with USB port for external storage, I wouldn’t run dude on internal flash (dude or containers cause much higher flash wear).
