📶 Enhanced HD Acceleration: WD My Net AC1300 HD Dual Band Router with Wireless AC WiFi Review

Didn't work the first time. The power light just blinked endlessly. It should blink when the firmware is updating or a self-test is running. However, he did not go beyond this regime. Also, the instruction manual was pathetic. I had to go online (with my cheap router) to find more detailed instructions. Don't take chances with this router.

4 Initial rating as the software is VERY limited. I had to get a stand for better airing, but it works fine. For the money I recommend. =============== Update: =============== I bought the modem on 11/11/2013 to 03/23/2015 The modem has a blinking Operating lamp and the router no longer works. Since it is 1 year and 4 months old, the warranty has already expired. Changed rating from 4 stars to 1 because I had many other routers that were still working after a year. I will not buy another WD…

I bought it at the end of November 2013. My experience with this router has been excellent. My network is reliable, very reliable and works very well. I used to have a dual band 802.11n network and am very happy with this 802.11ac router upgrade. I have a Cox Premier Internet with a Motorola SB6120 cable modem. Cox's declared internet speed is 50Mbps incoming and 10Mbps incoming traffic. I'm constantly getting 60 plus down, 20 up and a ping speed of 10-15ms. There are many devices on my…

Update after several months of daily use: WD My Net AC1300 performed very well. We haven't experienced any crashes caused by the router and I would say the latest firmware is very stable. If you are having problems with your router, be sure to check for a firmware update. (If you've never done this before: Enter the IP address from the manual into a web browser and use the standard login found on the bottom of the router itself. Go to "Settings" and search for a button to check for a firmware…

Check out reviews after your purchase because of our great price. I'm glad I didn't let the reviews influence my purchase of this router. It was an impressive router. This is the most customizable router I've ever owned and I love it. It's great to have their own dedicated networks for guests, multimedia devices, and work laptops. No connection or speed issues. I upload files to my hard drive over the network on a weekly basis and never notice any network lag when he is doing this and watching…

Seems to work fine. The interface is rather sparse and slow. I got it working with two WD bridges and the connection isn't as strong as I had hoped: after a power outage they don't seem to connect properly and I had to reset the bridges every time, even though I've tried manually closing both connect (WPA key) or via WPS. It turns out that the solution (after a long Google search) is to set the router's 5GHz channel to 40. After this change, the connection with the bridges remains intact.
