Great; has a drawback though. Still recommended

I like the 4x4 ax AP. However, it didn’t pass the sniff test (the packet variety) on Suricata (router, Netgate) with it’s unusual DNS requests that are mimicked and used to provide other services beyond standard DNS. It took a month or so for Tech Support to confirm the flagged traffic is what it is (non-DNS, but using "DNS”) for other features. I don’t like having the lack of control over when it comes to something I paid for. I have various other EnGenius APs, such as EnStation and ENS1750. I few EnGenius went backwards in the software with some things.A toggle or setting in the GUI software would be nice, so I could be in control. Gotta love the ever growing "convenient” IOT or "cloud” services being imposed. Other than that, the AP works great.One thing another reviewer mentioned- an option to disable the Ethernet activity port LEDs would be nice.Connecting at 1.2gbps on the AX200 WLAN NICs no problem. Very little performance loss from 1 Gig LAN base-t when compared to WiFi cards and APs at some distance.
