Review on Enhanced Performance with NETGEAR Renewed R7000-100NAR Nighthawk AC1900 Router: Dual Band Wi-Fi Gigabit Router with Open Source Support, Alexa Compatibility by Brandon Castano

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Ideal for DD-WRT and VPN.

I received this after doing some research and found that the R7000 is one of the best routers to install DD-WRT and use as an OpenVPN router. Because it is so popular, there are many guides and tutorials on the internet about it. The R7000 and its uses, no matter what you use it for, help is available. DD-WRT unlocks many features and configurable options for this router, including the ability to easily overclock to 1000MHz. The dual-core processor is powerful enough to handle 256-bit VPN protocols (I use OpenVPN), as well as many clients and traffic, without slowing down the network. It is also convenient to use as a firewall connected to a NAS, access point, switch, router, VPN server or client, and many other things can be configured directly in DD-WRT. refurbished at top prices. Just make sure you get the correct version. There have been several versions of this router (I believe there is v1, v2 and v3) and newer versions make it difficult or impossible to flash with 3rd party software like DD-WRT. Overall, I highly recommend it for any home use. .
