I'm trying to make my first server (Immich + Navidrome + Nextcloud running on Debian, will use WireguardVPN for remote access), but my crappy XFinity router (XB7) just won't port forward at all to my server machine. I've tried so many things to make it work, so the best thing I can do now is buy my own router so that I can just use the Xfinity router as a bridge. Do you guys have recommendations for a secure, customizable enough, and long-distance router good for 6 people?

eBay, FB marketplace, craigslist. Basically any dell, hp, or Lenovo workstation big enough to have a pcie slot.

Intel is usually the most prevalent. 6th or 7th Gen i3 or better. 4 to 8G ram, at least a 64G SSD.

Here's one that's a little overkill on the ram. But you'll need a cheap small SSD if you get it.
