Omada Router v Virgin Hub
I currently have a Virgin Hub in Modem Mode connected to a Google/Nest Wi-Fi setup.
I am looking at upgrading to an Omada setup and I'm currently testing out an EAP 723 access point to see how good the signal is.
At some point I will need to swap out the Nest WiFi access point that is working as the router, the no cost option would be to disable the modem mode on the Virgin and allow that to act as the router for the entire network. The alternative option is to keep modem mode enabled and then buy an Omada router, this can then be managed centrally and I can provide much more granular control over the network (I'm particularly interested in QoS for Teams calls and I believe this would require an Omada router).
The added benefit is that I could buy the ER7212, this would allow me to move to a hardware controller and I can sell the 4 port PoE switch I'm currently using.
I guess the main question is will I see much benefit? Does it make more sense to expand the Omada access points first and then worry about an Omada router further down the line.
