Hello,
If you desire to keep your existing router, I recommend using a Firewalla purple, if you put this before your Calix device, you will then have the ability to create device groups and you can force to use express VPN. However this will create a double NAT issue unless you are able to turn off routing on the Calix Device, this is generally only an issue if someone is gaming on your network or using VoIP services.

If you are not locked into a contract with the Calix device, I recommend using one of the recommended routers from Express VPN.
