SHOW: A simple home network setup for beginners with small homes

We all have seen those massive home network setups and wondered if we could get a simple one to get started. Well, here's one for you. If you live in a tiny apartment and all you need is a high performing and reliable wifi, you should look at this setup from reddit user gglelango.

The Network gear:

• Ubiquiti UniFi Security Gateway
  
• UniFi Switch 8 Port Gigabit Switch
  
• Ubiquiti UniFi AC Pro Access Point
  
• Ubiquiti UniFi Controller Cloud Key
  
• NETGEAR DM200 ADSL2+ Modem

• The Access point is nothing but the actual wifi radio that transmits the wireless signal
