Amplifi looks good but do you need to go through another box to vpn/dns into iPlayer etc?
I'm not sure what you mean here.
You can run the Amplifi as a DHCP server with NAT and so forth.
Or you can run it as a bridge and no other NAT is introduced and all connections are direct.
Unsure where VPNs come into it.

Got there, you can set amplifi up with smart dns providers like unlocator so it’s a possibility for getting Wi-fi by the pool.
Basically I’m outside the UK but still want UK multimedia access. I can’t do networks bridges and all that malarkey so my solution needs be simple and out of a box with little fuss. I have a good ASUS (non-meshable) router but it’s not making the most of my 1000Mps fibre connection. In truth, wired direct to the modem I got only 950, but still if I’m changing the router I might as well extend the network.

ASUS do open vpn support so simpletons like me can use it.
