    Pros: Fast and full featured

    Cons: Clunky interface and very unreliable WiFi

    Summary: Wired connection is rock-solid, and WiFi connection is very fast. USB print server and file server built in too.

    But WiFi radio randomly stops broadcasting several times per day and will not start up again unless router is powered down and then up again. USB file server requires external drives to be FAT32 formatted (32 GB max partition) or Linux formatted. Print server works for some but not all USB printers and does not support scanning on multifunction devices. Quirky interface requires getting used to.
