Bad quality, not worth the spent money.

The enable/disable IGMP option is the only one that can be selected, and it is the only one that has anything to do with multicasting. There is no support for IPTV within the Rostelecom network (in the south). Those. If you do some rhythmic movements with a tambourine, first plug the cord from IPTV around the router straight into the outlet, and then switch to the LAN port of the router, then the television will continue to function normally for a number of hours. The channels will change, and the Time-Shift function will be operational. After that, there is no doubt that the TV will be turned off. The problem may be solved by building a bridge from the WAN to one of the available LAN ports, but unfortunately, the firmware only allows for a limited number of configuration options.
All of the benefits of using this piece of iron are nullified when sufficient hardware is stuffed into it because there is no fine-tuning routing. Either send it back to the manufacturer for a refund or keep your fingers crossed that they will eventually come up with an improved model that does not have these problems.

Pros

- Effective management of Wi-Fi networks, - Quick and simple initial configuration, as well as the inclusion of USB and gigabit connections

Cons

PPPoE connection did not come up since it did not work with out-of-the-box firmware until ated was installed. - There will be no work with the multicast traffic IPTV service provided by Rostelecom is inoperable; there is no administration of individual ports and no bridge forwarding.
