It would be nice to see some progress. Instead, this router seems like a step backwards from the 2016 deal he linked to. After 8 years, it would be nice if we were seeing 16 port 2.5 gbe managed switches from recognizable brands around this price.

A managed switch tops or bottoms when you tell it to. Unmanaged switches do whatever they want and are a pain in the ass.

Lol! What an unhinged comment! 🤣

To answer the original question, a managed switch opens up your network to more layer 2 and/or 3 tools such as vlan management to segment devices talking to each other on your network (great if you want to separate smart home/IoT stuff from snooping on important devices in your home), routing (if layer 3 capable), spanning tree, and a whole slew of other useful tools. An unmanaged network has none of that functionality and pretty much acts as a dummy that allows devices to connect to the same flat network (i.e. no other vlans).

If none of this makes sense to you, you may not need one or should investigate further since there's tons of free resources available.

I guess it depends on your perspective. Your flat network is inherently insecure with all of your iot devices and stuff talking to each other and all of your other devices that they shouldn't even care about.
