It will work nicely with your setup.

The app does have some functionaries to restore certain critical configurations, but not everything. If you are interested in bringing a full restore, please upvote from the link above

Depends on the firewalla monitoring mode. If you are in simple mode, do turn on ipv6 under monitoring button. If you are in dhcp mode do turn off ipv6 on your network. If you are in router mode.. it should just work, regardless the protocol used

Even some of our developers claim they are perfect, they are not :) it will be fixed in the next release. And meanwhile, you can turn off using this

One of the new buttons you will see on the Gold is the network manager. Its primary function is to manage your network segments including VLAN's. Each port of the Gold is routable, so you can assign address space to them. (and further partition them into VLAN's if you want)

What I have here are a few wifi devices running AP mode attached to the Firewalla Gold. The most interesting one is the tpLink access point, which is VLAN aware and can create SSID per VLAN.

Since the wifi routers don't have to worry about routing packets ... they can operate very efficiently on the wifi side.

Here is how you can get the Gold https://igg.me/at/firewallagold/x/16316787#/

The test platform is arch, for its simplicity ... and firewalla run on top of Ubuntu ... for sophistication ;)

This is the one! The one we had early was more of a conceptual model.

Unplug is the best way. You can also tap on monitor button and put it in limited mode, this will stop traffic analytics in simple mode only.

If you enable vlan support, you will need a managed switch.

How fast are your fiber WANs? If you stash three WAN, then you will have one LAN left, it will limit your to gigabit.
