I've been vegetarian for around 3 years after I discovered how badly we treat animals, and also by connecting meat and animals in my mind... Realising that the same pets that I adore are the steaks that I ate. But still, I went vegetarian because I could. I could manage to find time in my life to change my diet and to make sure I had no deficiency in nutrients... So don't be too hard on yourself mate, your situation is totally understandable! Actually I strongly disagree with people saying that anyone could become vegetarian if they wanted to, it takes a lot of thought, trial and error, time and obviously a lack of allergies... Saying that, anyone can fight for animal rights in their own way, being vegetarian is only one of the many tools we have...

I ordered a GL Mango router a few days ago for the purpose of having a small independent WiFi network at home for my IoT experiments. That little box seems to be doing a lot network wise, it has a wan and a LAN port (no gigabit sadly...) and a nice web interface (based on openwrt) . I haven't received it yet but I'm suggesting that you have a look on the off-chance that it might answer your needs...
