Review on Wireless Router ASUS WL-520GU by Som Sak ᠌

Revainrating 3 out of 5

A completely ordinary product, nothing remarkable.

my internet provider has micro outages quite often, and it would seem that this should not be a problem for such a router, but this device does not react at all adequately. With some kind of fright, it declares that my PPPO connection is wrong and refuses to work on it. I have to set dynamic ah pi in the settings (although I don’t have such a thing), then the device says that everything is fine, but the Internet naturally does not work because the connection is wrong. And as a result, the router starts working only after re-setting the PPROE in the settings. Changing the software does not help. But that's not all, in addition to the above, it also greatly slows down the Internet connection from 100/80 (receiving / uploading) Mb / s, only 25/20 is available to me at most. I know that the maximum bandwidth of the router is 50 Mb / s, but not half of that ! If your operator works without interruptions and the Internet speed is low, then this device is for you.

Pros
  • distributes far. no micro breaks in communication, walls are not a hindrance to him
Cons
  • terrible software. slow internet speed

Some pros: Works stably. Never hung up even with strong torrent traffic. Different cons: There is no uPNP item in the settings, so it's not clear whether it works or not.
