I thought @TROYPOINT might find it interesting that they posted an upcoming firmware update that will give you an easy to set up plugin with SurfShark to create a whole house vpn!
I personally LOVE my Deco mesh network. For a couple hundred dollars you can get rock solid mesh networking routers. I’ve never shelled out for their top of the line thousand dollar flagship units, which I’m sure are great, but their w7200(x68), xe75, xe75pro, x95 level stuff has been excellent. Now, to be fair I do run wired back-hull, so that may be why I haven’t had to pay up for their really expensive units to get such great performance, so ymmv.
“## Quick Configuration for VPN Providers: SurfShark and NordVPN
For NordVPN and SurfShark users, the Deco app has added the support to quickly setup your VPN by signing into your VPN provider’s account.“
PS. Troy, if you end up getting a high end router to test but don’t end up needing it for your home network I’m not above taking it off your hands for free when you’re done testing, hey I’d even pay for the shipping cause I’m just a giver kind of guy
