Switch/Router Recommondation
I just bought the Switch GS108Tv2, but realized, tht this switch is about 10 years old, and just supports TLS 1.0. And I am sure, this switch is not the fastest on the market ;)
Is there an actual Switch/Router from NETGEAR? Maybe not older than two years with the same kind of functionality? Just need a fast connector with link aggregation for my Synology and QoS for my Playstation. Fanless preferred.
Any suggestions?

TLS 1.0 only is disputable - however, on your tiny home network, where is the _real_ risk? You could even use plain http...
What exactly do you need: Switch, router, combo, ...?
