Review on Cisco RV120W VPN Firewall Router with Wireless-N, 4-Port Switch, and 802.11b/g/n Support by Sean Reddy

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Will not buy again

I bought this router for a small LAN. I need a VPN firewall to allow remote access to my local network. I had problems as soon as I connected this device. A router is theoretically full of functions. However, the problems I had with it cost me a lot of money in the form of downtime and hassle. 1.) The router has a problem with DNS routing when the network is at full speed. We regularly see many "page cannot be displayed" errors in our network. 2.) The router is liable for damage to e-mail attachments and file downloads. 3.) Cisco support on these issues is silent, zero, zero. After two weeks of headaches and wasted time and effort with this device I will try to return it. Too many issues to rely on on our network. I don't know if it's a firmware or hardware issue. My Opinion: VIEW OTHER DEVICES until CISCO fixes this device. Check out the CISCO support threads if you need other opinions. I wish I could see all the issues with this and other RV routers before I buy it.

Pros
  • Very good value for money
Cons
  • Long delivery time
