Review on πŸ”’ Cisco RV260W-A-K9-NA: Superior VPN Router with 8 Gigabit Ethernet Ports, Wireless-AC Connectivity, and Lifetime Firewall Protection by Stephen Zimmer

Revainrating 4 out of 5

DO NOT BUY THIS ROUTER!

We recommend you avoid this router. Documentation is sorely lacking. There is a console port but there are no instructions on how to connect to it i.e. bitrate. There is no option to change the default LAN IP address in the setup interface. There doesn't seem to be a way to specify DHCP pool limits. The most annoying thing is that CISCO online support is "under maintenance". We bought it as a backup router to connect our LAN to our ISP who provides an Ethernet connection. The inability to change the LAN IP address or allocate a DHCP pool makes it impossible for our purposes (we would have to reassign static IP addresses to almost 50 devices). Returned.

Pros
  • Fair performance
Cons
  • Blank
