Review on πŸ” Renewed ASUS RT-AC66U Dualband AC1750 Gigabit Router with Wi-Fi Port by Micha Dziubiski ᠌

Revainrating 3 out of 5

The quality was generally satisfied, there were minor shortcomings.

I have been using the router for about 3 years. Quite satisfied. If it were not for the hang, then in general the norms. Everything was like this until I saw and tried to set up a simple Keenetic Start router (KN-1110). I was very pleased with the convenience of working with it, ease of configuration, the ability to install packages with the required services. As a result, I have already picked up a replacement for ASUS RT-AC66U B1, it will be a Wi-Fi router Keenetic Viva (KN-1910).

Pros
  • Rich settings. It is possible to raise a VPN server, and do port forwarding, and melted to access the Internet (parental control), and there is real-time network monitoring, and restrictions on ports. In general, a lot of things. As a result of the possibilities for optimizing the load on the network, it allows you to connect the minimum tariff from the provider. Comfortable.
Cons
  • 1-2 times a month goes into an unconscious state. More precisely, it doesn’t even hang - then the wi-fi network will disappear, then it’s not possible to connect via the web to the router. Reboot with the button saves. Firmware ates arrive regularly, but everything hangs just as stably. Considering that about a dozen services have been raised on the home network that require remote access to from the Internet, this is annoying. Moreover, the 5GHz wi-fi network is rather weak, the 2.4GHz signal is clearly more powerful.
