Forgive me if it’s a rude question but I’m assuming it’s a monthly cost. Can I ask how much you are paying for it? It also might be helpful so others can offer suggestions maybe tailored towards helping pay for it. :)

I get asked this question now and again, which router should I buy, and it’s so confusing to the average non tech person. The state of home routers is terrible with updates and poor support. So I bought nearly £2000 worth of routers over 18 months and started trying to find out which were any good. The ones to avoid became this list/site. It’s got affiliate links for uk, but the choices are good for anywhere. If it helps someone make a better decision and avoid being hacked or spied on, then I will feel like it’s been worth it. :)

As an important addition to this - use a completely different line for calling the real company. If the suspicious call came from a cell, use another cell phone. If call came from landline, use a cell.
