I have been looking into setting up a secure home server and hardening my local network and I came across this kickstarter which is currently floundering, likely because it’s campaign page is way too technical without enough fluff for the uninformed out there (like myself to some extent).

That said, from what I can tell it seems like a really great device for my use case actually, combining a multiband WiFi 7 gateway with a built in NAS and upgradeable compute modules. As a binus it is a German company so I’m a bit less worried about back doors that with some of the Chinese generic manufacturers out there.

What I can’t sus out is how secure this actually is, how technical my background needs to be to get it set up effectively, and whether the price is good for the hardware. Any help?

      What do you think? It isn’t cheap but seems like great hardware to a n00b like myself, I like the future-proofness and repairability of the slots it has. Possibly worth it?

        For a turnkey device there is far too many options for a non technical person to successfully get what they want. It seems like it is aimed at the technical person to run for the non technical person.
