do not buy kits. Buy your own gear. It will be so much cheaper.
Try and get 3 switches and 3 routers from ebay. Better yet, look for lots of 3 as they come somewhat cheaper.
On ebay, I payed a little over $200 for 3 2620xm routers and 3 2950c switches.
From what I've read, the 2600xm series are recommended. get whichever model you find cheapest. 2610xm,2611xm,2620xm or 2621xm.
also the 2950 series router is recommended. either the 2950c, 2950t, or 2950g. They are the same with a few minor port differences but all work good.2019 Goals
