Review on WAVLINK Mesh WiFi Systems Whole Home Dual Band AC1200 - Seamless Roaming - White WN535K2, 2-Pack (1 router +1 satellite) by Dennis Goozmer

When I moved to the dormitory, I needed to buy a small Wi-Fi router. Of course I'm not ready yet, but that doesn't mean I can't test it on my home network! I've done some research on this model and it looks like you could use the base unit as a standalone router as well. It's great when the range doesn't work in my dorm room. The design of the router itself is rigid and doesn't feel cheap. The range is decent considering it's intended for a mesh system. The indicators on the top of the router make it easy to see its status and give the router a cool look. Purple means it's on, blue means it's working (yay!), and red means it's not working. The router's user interface is very user-friendly and better than some more expensive routers. Assembly was very easy with the included instructions. The only thing I don't like is that you are forced to enter upper and lower case letters, numbers and symbols for the password, but that's a small issue as you should have a long password to stay secure. For the price, the inclusion of 5GHz WiFi is excellent. This can be really helpful in an environment like a college dorm as 5GHz is not as prone to interference as 2.4GHz. All in all a great router for the price for people who don't need a long range or for smaller households.
