Not your tech support

Get a server with a decent NIC and a couple antennas and you're all set. Even a sub-$5000 blade would do pretty well as a home router.

im actually looking for something to use for my parents i do not want to go all out on it

Ignore any recommendations of netgear, linksys, tp-link, or other common brand names.

Check thrift stores. Got a Linksys EA3500 for $6 yesterday to extend the wifi range. Would be perfect for normies. That Smart Wifi shit is so basic any geriatric should be able to use it.
