13 customers mention5 positive8 negative

Customers are mixed about the wifi signal of the router. Some mention that it has a strong signal, with an immediate improvement in WiFi range and throughput. However, others say that it's super buggy and the signal disappears often. Some customers also mention that the 5G WiFi occasionally drops out and that the router does not transmit a large radius WiFi signal below the horizontal plane.

"So two main issues with this device.First, the WiFi drops out. Very annoying have to reboot the router...." Read more

"...WiFi coverage is pretty high range, plus you can add more around your house, in your shed, wherever has power. Hard wired is perfect...." Read more

11 customers mention6 positive5 negative

Customers have mixed opinions about the connectivity of the router. Some mention that it solved the connection problem with laptops, does a good job of connecting the client to the closest AP, and connects fast. It's also great for tethering, repeating WiFi, and networking between PCs at home. However, others say that they experienced disconnects when contractors were running their air compressors, and that tethered isn't reliable and the unit runs very hot. They also mention that they may have issues pairing with a subordinate mesh router on a lower floor.

"...It also does a good job of connecting the client to the closest AP and seems to spread the load well...." Read more

"...This also means you may have issues pairing with a subordinate mesh router on a lower floor unless it is positioned below the master router...." Read more

"...It doesn't stick out, easy to use, and reconnects fast. It will 'mesh' to cover bigger areas, but I haven't needed to add a second one yet." Read more

"...I experienced disconnects when contractors were running there air compressors outside my home...." Read more

5 customers mention0 positive5 negative

Customers have difficulty setting up the router. They mention that the instructions are difficult to follow, and the mesh was difficult to setup. They also report issues with installing additional software and mention that it's impossible to install Zerotier on the router, and that the UI would not properly integrate any of the new components. Customers also mention that tech support is lackluster and that they stopped using the router due to the poor installation process.

"I love this device but I must say that this router may not be an easy setup for the non-technical folk...." Read more

"...Lastly, after installing additional packages via SSH, the UI would not properly integrate any of the new components, even after a device reboot...." Read more

"...On the other hand, mesh was difficult for me to setup using their online instructions...." Read more

"...Impossible to install Zerotier on this router. Tried to tinker with this to get it working but a pure head-ache." Read more

A great travel router for work.

A great travel router for work.
This router is great for people who travel frequently. It's powerful yet portable. I work all over the country running video for Conventions, Expos, and other live events, and I need to have a private local network to manage my gear and securely go online. The 5ghz signal means that I get a solid connection among the dozens, or even hundreds of other wifi networks in these enormous ballrooms. The built in OpenVPN was very easy to setup with PIA and helps to ensure my browsing is secure. And of course, I can connect an 8-port switch that I got from Goodwill for $3 to get a wired connection on more devices if necessary.One thing worth noting: if you upgrade the firmware from 2.x to 3.x, it can break the login page (192.168.8.1). The way you fix this is going into preferences and clearing the cache for that IP address. No need to reset the router (that doesn't fix it anyway).I didn't give it 5 stars because I am struggling to get the NAS features to work. It takes a lot of effort. I'm sure I'll get it soon, but it sucks that it isn't easier. This technology is not new, yet not user friendly. I want to be able to load files onto the USB and easily see and manage them in the Network page of a Windows device, or perhaps as a DLNA server on my Android phone using Localcast.

5.0 out of 5 stars Works great!
Reviewed in the United States on February 23, 2021
I love this device but I must say that this router may not be an easy setup for the non-technical folk. Follow the instructions and remember that Google is your friend. I never trust any wifi that's not my own; so when I visited a particular hotel I made sure I had this router with me. For me, the initial setup was a breeze. Once you get around the hotel's captive portal (Welcome Screen) to connect to the wifi you're basically done. The great thing is that once you connect once and create your personal network all other devices can connect without having to go through the captive portal process.

I take it a step further to enable the VPN feature so that I know my data is kept confidential. I've tested it and so far it's been steady with no speed degradation. My advice to anyone who has connected this router but later is having trouble reconnecting it to public or captive portal wifi; make sure the VPN is turned off and try again. So far the router is working great for me and I'm happy I invested in my privacy, security, and peace of mind.
