Review on πŸ”₯ Zyxel ZyWALL ATP100 1 Gbps Firewall - Next Generation Firewall with 1-Year Advanced Threat Protection Security License Services by Antonio Gonzalez

Revainrating 5 out of 5

It's better than WatchGuard

Neat device. I used to have WatchGuard, but this interface is much easier to use with almost the same advanced features and more. Support from WG and their licensing/reseller structure is also a real problem. However, if I had to do it again (and I could afford it), I'd go for a more powerful model with built-in Wi-Fi (which has something like a "controller" but no *real* Wi-Fi, so make a note.) It does have a couple of gigabit LAN ports, but maximum throughput is a bit weaker overall, and enabling many security features will get in the way in terms of speed (depending on how much you want to enable). It also takes (at least) 10 minutes to reboot. no joke. If you have a lot of machines on your network, I would definitely recommend spending the big bucks on Zyxel's more expensive offering rather than buying it.

Pros
  • Everything is great!
Cons
  • Not everything fits
