Thanks for spelling this out clearly. I have scenario 2 now and will probably re-arrange to go with scenario 1.

Thanks,

Hi jwake,
WNDR4500 has better LAN throughput than FVS336Gv3 according to their respective product datasheets. I suggest you test them individually and which comes up better, make it your DHCP server.
Kind regards,
