Gold vs. Purple - Difference?
I am considering the purchase of one of these sets. The gold pushing 500$ makes me lean towards the purple. I understand there are more ports on the Gold than purple, by my thought is that I could just add a network hub after the Firewalla to get the same effect. What other differences should I pay attention to fr a home network where I also work remotely 5 days a week?
i.e. are there featured other than the higher bandwidth that the Gold has that the purple doesn't? I understand that the Purple actually does have a short range Wifi where I could use a hotspot as a backup connection. Is that the main difference?
Are the features the same?

You can see some of the hardware differences and software differences.

Thanks. I saw that already. I was looking for a more practical comparison, user experience, etc.. Is the app the same? Is there something that can be controlled on the gold, that is not available on the purple?
I guess I am looking for a side by side (video review) comparison. All of the reviews I have seen laud the products, but don't go over what one is better at. Basically, I don't want to cheap out on the purple, if in six months I will be wanting the Gold once I get familiar with things.
- Thanks for your time. I appreciate it.
