"Much better than the Netgear Router supplied by my ISP" 4.5 stars
Pros: Much faster WAN throughput, maybe 3X up and down.
Great management GUIl.
Dual band WiFi works great with good signal strength throughout my house.
No dropped connections to TVs, phones, Xbox and PCs.
Love the ability to prioritize for different client
Cons: Some issues with the help files and bad English
The Traffic Monitor is cool but, if I leave it running, it takes all system memory as well as the virtual memory then locks up the system.
Summary: Great router for the money. A couple of friends have changed their buying choice based on my experience. I have VPN working both ways. I use OpenVPN to connect to work and I use PPTP and/or RDP to connect to home from the Internet.
Thanks for your submission!
