My home = one or two clients at any one time. Only PCs.

That router has half the RAM of the Pi Zero and a lower CPU clock
(though two cores instead of one). I'm sure it's fine for doing the
current job of my DGN2200, but I wouldn't consider changing that if
it wasn't for the need to run the HTTPS to HTTP software, and hence
I started looking outside the range of available routers.
