Help me find a router!

[Ct500]

To give some background I currently own a Linksys AC5400 tri-band router.

It's all great and everything, EXCEPT, the manual DNS does not work. it is a "bug", many forums lead to saying it's a feature. Had I known this I would have bought another router.

I want one similar to like this with parental control as well. wouldn't mind if it had other features or if it was bundled with other devices, just as long as it has the following.

Link to product:

Working manual DNS

802.11 ac gen 2 (including wireless bands a/b/g/n)

can accommodate a large home.

 

can be mesh

prefer it not to be from google.

Prefer it not to be from LinkSys. (This bug is in all their routers)

privacy is something I would like.

does not need to be compatible with a voice assistant.

I would suggest the Linksys Velop.

• Mesh
• Manual DNS
• Has Disney Circle Integration
• Works great in large homes

They do. Helps keep track of sites and activity.

It's more for keeping our neighbors from using our wi-fi or unknown devices, which I have done so in the past.

Also I am not a parent. so best not to judge buddy.
