I just switched to Meraki GR12 AP's in my home as a recommendation from a friend. I bought the Meraki RX50 router/firewall, but it throttles my speeds at 500MB. I work from home and need to have my full Gigabit speeds. What brand/type router/firewall is recommended or will work with my GR12's? I don't want to change out the entire system.
Thank you!!
If you're referring to the Meraki Go Indoor WiFi 6 AP (GR12) you may want to post in the specific Meraki Go Community: https://community.meraki.com/t5/Meraki-Go-Community/ct-p/go
Yes, sorry I will update the post and move it
I am curious if you have recommendations for a Cisco router/firewall for my home, to keep it all in the "family" if you will.
Hi @ddresen the RX series like most Cisco SMB products are a good idea but certainly come with their limitations.
Personally, I’ve used a Meraki MX at home for years with no issues.
@DarrenOC Which Meraki MX system do you use? I need to take advantage of the Gig ISP I subscribe to.
Hi @ddresen , I’m using an MX68 but I don’t have a 1Gbps connection.
in your case you’re looking at the MX75 and above:

Do you by any chance work for a Cisco Partner? If so, make use of their NFR programme.
I also second the MX75 assuming it's within budget.
One thing to remember is that as opposed the Meraki Go, standard Meraki devices require a license which you need to continue renewing in order to use the equipment
Yeah, it's a home network, and even though I work from home, not interested in paying Cisco for service. I may pull the entire HW config out and go with a good home mesh.
It would be GR12 right? This is the Meraki GO line, there is a specific community for these products.

Yes, sorry I will move it to the other community
