Home Network - Ubiquiti EdgeRouter Lite + what?

srj

I'm going to be setting up a small home network. I could go for an all-in-one, but I want to overcomplicate things for fun. I'll be going with an EdgeRouter Lite for routing/firewall. I'm stuck as far as what to use for an AP/switch. I will need 3-4 Ethernet ports and a WAP. I was thinking I could buy a router and just disable the routing features. Alternatively, Ubiquiti also sells a WAP that would likely give me access in my parking lot, and I could pick up a cheap switch.

Any ideas?

if you are looking for a cheap WAP get a consumer unit and disable the routing. What is your ultimate goal, are you trying to use this as a learning experience? If so get a TP-Link or other managed switch so you can learn vLans.
