Review on πŸ” ARRIS SURFboard SBR-AC1900P: High-Performance AC1900 Wi-Fi Router with Ripcurrent Technology using G.hn by Aaron Jensen

Revainrating 5 out of 5

The product is not endorsed by the company

In terms of Wi-Fi signal, this router is about what you expect for the price. Easy installation and setup was a breeze. the wps button also works. The two-star rating is due to the fact that literally NONE of the apps available from ARRIS for Android or iOS to manage your network actually work. You are also limited to using Wi-Fi extenders only manufactured by ARRIS. You can connect third-party extenders, but you'll never get them to work stably. The only interface to manage Wi-Fi extenders in the ARRIS portal can only be used for Linkys' own products, for example, not. There are other user-unfriendly navigation issues in the ARRIS router portal, such as B. Vague how-to explanations and inexplicable grayed-out options. This router is great if you just want to connect a router, forget about it and have a good connection in your home. It even handled my games without lag when other HD devices were streaming. However, if you want to set up your WiFi, use network monitoring apps, adjust turn off times for specific devices, or add WiFi extenders, THIS IS 100% NOT THE ROUTER FOR YOU. If you want more user-friendly features, customization options, or apps that actually work, consider Netgear or Linkys. My original router was also damaged upon delivery and had to be replaced.

Pros
  • Not cheap but decent
Cons
  • Compatibility
