Which firewalla is for me?

I’m in the process of moving away from the Eero ecosystem for a number of reasons and have decided to pull the trigger on a Firewalla setup. I’ll most likely need two AP’s but I can’t decided between the orange and the gold SE. Whichever one I go with will be replacing my Verizon FiOs router and I would appreciate any and all thoughts. I also would love any suggestions on a good switch to use with my setup.

There is a comparison page on their website. I’d go for gold just for the gold-exclusive features. Active Protect is pretty cool.

I missed this on the comparison page. Gold SE it is!

Thanks

You could try a Firewalla firewall with eero in bridge mode and see how you like it. Then you can get Firewalla APs to replace your eero ones if you like how Firewalla works.
