So I'm going to start out with saying that this product is great for my needs. Doesn't have VPN client ability, but that's not really a huge deal for me is I can just install VPN on my devices. So minus that, It gives really good coverage and strong signal. I also included in the picture what I was using before which was the eero 6. I have Sonic fiber gigabit internet. I was using 2 eero 6 routers before in my studio apt and couldn't get internet in the kitchen even though I had one of them in the kitchen. This one router covers my whole house no problem and even where I wasn't getting any signal in the kitchen before, I'm getting strong 5 GHz single now. Also latency and response time has improved substantially. You can also skip the app if you like that requires registration and just set up your router via web browser like I did it was super simple and fast.

Wi-Fi 6 new technology, dual band capabilities of 5g and 2.4 to allow older wireless devices to connect. Has 8 high gain antennas, commercial grade processor, easy one button mesh capability if you want to expand to other outside buildings, and covers my entire house. from one location. Just download the app and follow easy set up instructions. Even has separate guest network built in and IoT networks to not interfere with core home devices. Replaced my underperforming Spectrum with one that has twice the speed, parental controls, and ease of set up (10 mins). Based on lots of research before purchasing, this one met all expectations.

I had a 4-5 year old mesh router. I was getting a lot of buffering. My ISP recommended I replace my router. I searched and decided on this one. Set up was easy. The startup instructions are sparse but having said that, in less 10 minutes I was up and running. My mesh system had 2 remote routers. I have only had this new router 3 days but signal strength is great all over my house and even outside with no remotes. Speed improvement is really noticeable. I have 200 Mbps fiber. I got at best, 150 Mbps. I m now consistently getting 180 Mbps or higher. All in all I am very happy with my purchase.

I've used Linksys and Netgear Routers in the past, the router this unit replaced is a Linksys WRT1900ACS, it's still a perfectly functional router and more then fast enough to support my 100mbps down internet connection but it simply lacked the Range I needed now that i'm expanding my smart home IoT devices, my Router is on a high shelf in the basement in the center of the house (roughly) as there are several things that needed to be hardwired to the router down there. I have one smart outlet on a fence post that just barely got like 2-4mbps down speeds on my phone at it's location on the old Linksys router, with this router my phone now gets 15-20mbps down speeds at that same location, I tested my phone using a Wifi Analyzer app with both routers running at a point near the fence post and the Linksys was roughly around -73dbm and this router was around -63dbm, so this definitely wins the range game compared to the Linksys, but it still wasn't enough range for my grand plan of IoT devices so I took advantage of another feature of this Router, it's support of Mesh Wifi, so I bought the Reyee RG-R6 2-pack to go along with it, talk about easy to setup, I simply plugged the 2 of them into power, went to this router and pressed the button on top, within minutes both of the RG-R6's where paired and then I moved them to their final locations at the far opposite corners of the main level of the house, I now have full internet speed EVERYWHERE inside the house, all over the front yard out and into the street(it's about 50-55 feet from the RG-R6 that is closest to the street) and i'll have to see how far away I can get in the backyard when it's not the middle of the night. Some things I would mention in hopes it helps others, Leviton Smart Switches and Outlets are easy to reconfigure the wifi to switch onto this, but my Arlo Video Doorbell had to be Deleted and re-installed in the Arlo app, it just refused to find the doorbell when I did the Change Wifi in the app, wasted like half an hour on that, so save your time, delete the doorbell and add it as a new device. There are also a few settings you'll want to set in the web interface under the Wifi section, this can be set to broadcast 2.4 and 5Ghz SSID's or you can toggle it to Dual Band Single SSID, doing this toggle to Single SSID means no more having to switch between your 2.4 and 5Ghz SSID's as you get too far away from the router and the 5Ghz drops out, when the 5Ghz drops you'll seamlessly switch to 2.4Ghz, you'll also wanna toggle on the "Band Steering", this lets the router choose what devices to push to 5Ghz and which to keep on 2.4Ghz (which are mainly old devices and IoT devices) based on the capabilities of the device. Now the only outstanding question is how reliable will this be, only time will tell. Oh and one last thing, my Wifi Calling works with this router, it didn't work with the Linksys I mentioned at the beginning of this review. So thats another plus. EDIT: 7 months into ownership and this thing is still going strong, haven't had to reset it or pull the power like you do on most routers and the speed, still kicking but, can transfer video files over wifi at 60-85 MEGABYTES (not Bits) a second, this is the same or faster then a USB 3.0 external drive plugged directly into the computer.

Lo compré por qué sus características demostraban tener un funcionamiento óptimo. En papel mostraban las mejoras frente a otros routers, mostraban que tenías mejor recepción y que la señal era muy buena por la implemmntación de los componentes de calidad. Sin embargo, en pruebas sintéticas fue una decepción. Se desconecta a bastante, no permitía conectar dispositivos. Por cable no reconocía la red. El modo repetidor fue un dolor de cabeza ya que la conexión wifi aparecía conectado pero no se podía navegar por internet. Es la peor experiencia con un módem.
