Customer Reviews
This is easily the best router I've ever owned, very easy to set up, good coverage, fast and with a huge number of features. I'm running the stock firmware which has an easy to use interface but it can also run newer versions of OpenWRT.
I had a Synology RT6600ax that I bought just under a year ago. I really like that router, but I didn't like the fact it only has one 2.5Gb LAN port and the WAN port is only 1Gb. I upgraded my internet plan to 2.5Gb, so that router would no longer work for me. I could have connected the single LAN port to my 2.5Gb switch, but the internet would be limited to 1Gb. I tried various workarounds, but decided it needed to be replaced.
