Died and received a reduced warranty

It was great while it worked. During his first year as owner, he began spouting gibberish and bringing the network to a halt. When connected to the network, nothing could communicate, while offline everything was fine. That was 3 years ago and I decided to take the time to replace it before the 5 year warranty expired. To my surprise the warranty has since been reduced to 3 years so I'm late now and feel like I've been robbed. I could have avoided the disappointment I feel if I had been more diligent / look for a replacement in a timely manner, but I think it's worth noting for potential buyers. When weighing the ratio of good and bad reviews, try to feel the risk of getting a bad egg. I ask you to consider that this manufacturer has reduced the safety net that protects you from premature product failure. Take it how you like, but in my opinion it's a red flag.

Pros
  • ETHERNET PORT INTERFACE: 8 Gigabit ports
Cons
  • Fading
