Hi!To start with I want to mention that I am not someone with a computer/IT background. I just have some interest in these things, so I keep on trying things.I am here to seek advice on my home networking setup. Currently, I am on the gigabit plan from Xfinity and soon my area will get fiber and then I will probably shift on a plan that gives 2 gigs up and down speed.My internet setup is Wi-Fi only as I do not have any cables running at my home. The setup right now consists of a Nighthawk CM1100 modem which is connected to my Asus RT-AX86U which broadcasts my primary SSID (SSID1) and a guest SSID. From this router, there is another router connected, D-Link DIR-882 which broadcasts another SSID (SSID2) that I use for my security cameras. This D-Link router then has another router daisy chained which is Netgear WAX202 which broadcasts a third SSID that uses a DNS proxy for some streaming services from my home country.I have quite a few Google Home devices and certain other smart devices. I tried moving all these devices to SSID2 to keep them separate from my main SSID (SSID1). However, in doing so I am unable to use services like Google Cast as Google and my TVs then move to a different network. I have to keep my TVs on my main SSID (SSID1) as that is the fastest SSID and run PLEX which is again on my main SSID.Now, I want to know what the best way will be to manage my setup as I essentially want to segregate my IoT devices so that they do not see my other setup up but things like Chromecast, nest doorbell casting on TV, etc. should work. Additionally, I want to have another SSID with my DNS proxy, maybe another with a VPN for a different country to run another streaming service. Lastly, I want a separate SSID for guests which should not see anything. Along with all this, I also need Wireguard which right now is available on my Asus RT-AX86U.I have been trying to find what I can do. I have some old and new hardware that I can utilize to make this happen and this includes:Juniper SRX210Meraki MR32Cisco AIR-CAP1602I-A-K9TP-Link TL-SG105EAlternatively, I can try a PfSense router.To be honest, I have no clue how and what I will be doing with my hardware or PfSense router but I am willing to learn and try if what I am thinking is possible for someone like me who does not have much knowledge in this regard.Please let me know how to proceed. Thanks in advance.
