I'm new to IT, i work for a small dental office with 2 locations. Currently using an old Linksys EA6900 (from 2013) as the router. Just ran a security audit and it's flagging vulnerabilities that can't be patched because the router is end-of-life. Need to replace it.

Setup:

• 2 servers (one main, one remote)
• Open Dental practice software
• Tailscale connects both offices (keeping it)

Looking for:

• Business-grade, HIPAA-friendly
• Router + WiFi in one box
• No subscription fees
• Easy enough for a non-network engineer to manage
• Around $100–200 per location
