This router is EXCEPTIONALLY slow when using ExpressVPN, which is its main function. So, fail! If you have high speed internet faster than 100Mbps, avoid this router! My testing shows it severely reducing bandwidth. For this price, the router should do much better than this horrific throughput. Starting with a wired connection to this router from a PC, through to fiber ISP (940Mbpps), speed tests show: 1) With No VPN - 900Mbps -- so the router can handle gigabit speed with VPN off, like pretty much any bargain bin router these days. 2) With ExpressVPN App running on PC, VPN Enabled to nearest server - 300Mbps -- this is the "normal" VPN slowdown I guess. 3) With Express VPN enabled on Router (turned off on PC) - 110Mbps I understand ExpressVPN may not be able to keep up with 900Mbps, but the router should not be slowing throughput to 1/3 the speed of using the same ExpressVPN connection on PC App. Truly pitiful. Troubleshooting with ExpresVPN has been no help, but after the two probably automated responses suggesting how to speed up Wifi (um.. I said was using a direct wired connection to the router, guys) they finally started offering some on-topic suggestions, but still no joy. My conclusion is they think nobody has internet service faster than 100Mbps, and they tricked me into buying an underpowered, poorly engineered solution, at a premium price.
