ZDNet has an article recommending 5 VPN routers from $79 to $250. I am not familiar with all of them, but it should get you started. I like the Firewalla product because of the other security features it provides, like blocking incoming traffic flows or device-specific service rules, and PiHole is amazing.

It’s outside your budget, but you should look at Firewalla. I think their least expensive model is the Blue Plus, but it provides security capabilities like firewall and VPN as well as routing and DHCP. The Gold even supports Docker containers - I’m running PiHole in a Docker on my Gold. I’m not using VPN client capabilities, but I know they’re there.

I love In-N-Out. I could even ignore the bible verses on their packaging since it was pretty hidden. But I haven’t been there since they refused to enforce the mask mandates during the pandemic - if they ignore one health regulation they don’t like, who’s to say they’re not ignoring others? I won’t go there again until there’s some sign that sanity is taking over.
