Moving from VM Busines to Vodafone
I'm in the process of switching from Virginmedia Business braodband to Vodafone Residential 910Mbps. I had the VM router in modem only mode and used my RBR50 as router with 3 RBS50 satellites which ...
They do and I've just signed up today.
I did a complete reboot of my system (wall box, router, Orbi & satellites) and all seems to be working correctly at last.
I have the rbr50 in AP mode.
What are the security implications of that versus using the DMZ on the VF router?

It is a case of balancing what the VF router does against the protection from the Orbi router. Threats that do get through the Vodafone router will then have to get through the Orbi.
The VF thing may warn about the dangers of the DMZ, but that does not take account of what you get from the Orbi. Then you have to throw in your level of paranoia.
