I am scheduled to receive my Firewalla Purple on Monday, November 29.  I plan to install it between my cable modem and an Asus RT-AX88u in router mode.  I tried to go through the various getting started articles and am getting more confused. I now have my LAN set to 10.0.145.xxx, and a Synology NAS with a fixed IP of 10.0.145.3, everything else using DHCP. What is the order in the installation? Do I set the Asus to AP/bridge mode first before I install the Purple? Disconnect the Asus, install the Purple and set it up in router mode, then connect the Asus and set it to  AP mode? Sorry, I know just enough about networking to be dangerous.  Comments and suggestions would be appreciated.

  put purple between your cable and asus first, you can pair the unit

  Then change asus into AP mode

  Then goto network manager and change the network space to 10.0.145.x
