Question 1

2 questions, has this strong wifi 6, or better add an extra wifi router? Also is easy to copy all our network settings from very old Draytek to this?

Accepted Answer

This model doesn't support wifi 6(802.11ax) - you need to look at the AX editions. 2866ax or 2865ax

Regards network settings - this article is quite useful, depending on your model you may be able to export your existing backup into the new model.

Question 2

Can these be used to limit (block) intra office pc to pc communication? wish to stop one "infected" pc/ laptop communicating with another. tia.

Accepted Answer

You could isolate the infected PC in a DMZ, you could block all ports for the network and only forward to non infected in DMZ/Subnet, you could set up a subnet for the infected, but the only reason you would want to keep an infected PC on your network is if you are running a honeypot and if that is your aim you will be able to do all of the above.  Personally, I would run virus and malware and remove infected PC's.

Question 3

Is there a manual with information on the firewall, can it be set up to block intra office traffic (by protocol), do DrayTek have a products that can

Accepted Answer

Great feature with Draytek is the live demo, pick whichever router you thinking of buying/using and see how it can be configured - https://www.draytek.com/products/live-demo/
The knowledge base has many examples on how you can configure the firewall - https://www.draytek.com/support/knowledge-base/firewall/
