MODERATORS
I'm asking as I'm in the process of degooglifying myself (including a Synology NAS drive) and I want to restrict access to my data from 3rd parties.
I have a plethora of devices in my household, some of them don't support any sort of VPN Client apps (like video game consoles) so I thought it would be a good idea to have a VPN on the router level so I don't have to install a client on every possible device.
Is expensive router an only way of doing this or achieving this level of anonimity on a network level?
ZDNet has an article recommending 5 VPN routers from $79 to $250. I am not familiar with all of them, but it should get you started. I like the Firewalla product because of the other security features it provides, like blocking incoming traffic flows or device-specific service rules, and PiHole is amazing.
