I'm impressed! Exactly the product deserves your attention.

Basically, I liked everything. It is difficult for me to give a full opinion about the operation of the device. I rarely go anywhere. Set up via the web interface. Connection to the provider via PPoE went without problems. I don't use IPTV. Works well over LAN. There was no alternative firmware at the time of setup, now there is already one from World of Wi-Fi. I haven't had a chance to try it yet. But I had enough functionality and factory firmware. In addition to one setting (very important for me, probably unimportant for most), in the "guest" network settings, the maximum number of users is 10, and I would need 15. It is clear that this can be implemented differently, but in my case it would be perfect.

Pros

Manufacturing quality. Nice design. Work stability. Possibility to work in two bands at the same time. The web interface is in 2022, which is not so often the case, and unlike others I have met with a clear and not abstruse help. It is even possible to turn off the LEDs on the ports (who bothers). For those who do not want to go into the intricacies of setup, there is a convenient, simple, step-by-step setup that runs from the supplied CD. Fairly good reception area, tk. the room where it is installed is complex, it is difficult to say the exact figure. I pierced an 80 cm wall in one direction, and 4 interior walls in the other, with a radius of 10 meters, but given the number of walls, the result is not bad. The presence of a "guest" network with a pop-up window for entering a password and explanations.

Cons

There is no wall mount, but this is a small drawback, if desired, you can thread a string through the grate at the bottom of the router and fix it. The maximum number of users of the "guest" network is 10. Judging by the reviews on the network, there are problems with connecting to some 2022 providers due to the peculiarities of entering authentication data (it is treated by installing an alternative firmware).
