Here’s a networking question for people: I want to upgrade my modem to something a bit more powerful, but it looks like things have moved on since last time I looked.
I had some business money a few years ago so I bought a Dream Machine Pro. Then I had to get an access point to make it work. So I’ve got an old consumer modem/router going into a dream machine.
Back in the day there was an ubiquiti rackmount modem that looked like the perfect pairing, but they have these gateways now that would make the dream machine somewhat redundant. There don’t seem to be any decent stand alone modems out now either to get instead.
Should I just get a gateway and move on the dream machine? Is it worth keeping? Is there some other option I’m missing or should look I to?
I think they come with cloud keys now. Maybe I’ll move on the Dream Machine and get one of their fancier gateways as I can’t see the benefit of both without spending more on PoE switches
Let me know what you want and I’ll see if work can get it cheaper. Staff can buy whatever we have access to in our supplier database. Usually about 15ish% cheaper.

I’d vote for a modern ubiquity device, but if you’re going to have ap’s as well make sure it has built in cloud in cloud key.
