Still does not brew coffee and does not download torrents. But these tasks should be handled by a coffee maker and NAS, respectively, routers of this class are designed for a completely different thing. Got pros: Very fast processor (also with the possibility of overclocking) for a router with such a price. Support for all kinds of network technologies, very powerful QoS. Five fully independent gigabit ports plus many VPN tunnels. Anti-glamor brick design. Minimal setup (to "just work") is…

I can recommend this router to those who want maximum features and are used to being in control of everything. Powerful, reliable. It's amazing how there can be so many possibilities in such a small box. Has some pros - It is enough to set up once, and everything works like clockwork. - I also consider a huge bunch of fine settings, some of which I don’t even know, to be an indisputable advantage. However, it is nice that, if necessary, they can be smoked as I need. For example, I heard that…

I have been using this device for a year now, from maintenance - only installing ates, sometimes I wipe the dust. The device, in my opinion, falls into the "set it and forget it" category. Works like a home wi-fi router, turned on around the clock, no glitches noticed. Of the inconveniences - you must first study the documentation. In its price segment, the device clearly outperforms its competitors both in terms of features and hardware. On the official mikrotik website there is a demo…

Somehow, very suddenly, I found out that there is a company that manufactures network equipment and manufactures it in Europe and not in China. I tried it - I liked it. So since then I live with Mikrotiks. Pros: Flexibility and scalability. Lack of idiocy called "Setting in 2 clicks". High performance. Support for everything I need (what a simple admin might need :)?) and more than a few extra features that I just don't use. Different cons: Support for Cifs was introduced recently, but only the

I've been using for over a year. the device does not require reboots at all (sometimes I reboot, but it's just that he's impatient because of the provider that brought down the network) the settings are quite simple, quick set - solves all problems Different pros: processor stability and power, 1Gb ports. a bunch of settings (if you don't need it and you don't get into the jungle) quick set setup in 5 minutes. additional utilities. POE (albeit passive) PPPoE gives out the maximum possible from…

I am very pleased with the device. For more than a year now, it has been working and pleases me with its stable work, the absence of glitches and freezes; I have never had to reboot it yet (except when I was directly involved in the configuration). This is despite the fact that it serves three computers and several smartphones via Wi-Fi. A stable and powerful Wi-Fi signal - I checked it with a smartphone on the street - I leave the house for 40 meters - the signal is "full" and this despite…

A mega-cool, mega-functional, mega-flexible and stable piece of hardware. I read about the fact that you can even set up a print server on it. But apparently on some custom OS))) In a word, the piece of iron is a "must have"! Got pros: Good speed on L2TP. I have a Beeline connected, and so the speed keeps during the day - 45 Mbps (as per the tariff), at night the speed is understood to be almost 90 Mbps (and this is taking into account the fact that there is almost 100 meters of unshielded…

I was very pleased with the comments of comrades who "did not like" the piece of iron just because they did not have enough skills to configure it. Here you need to understand that the device has its own, I would say geeky niche, and the average user is unlikely to be able to master and configure it in a swoop. If there is no desire to learn, read manuals, and the words gateway, mask and command line cause fear - this piece of iron is not for you. Save your nerves and money. For a trouble-free

I set up vpn to the router according to the manual and you can, without fear, log in from your mobile, tablet, etc. through open networks and enter at least a credit card number, everything is secure. A remote network also becomes available and knowing logins and passwords you get full access to computers. Awesome. Has some pros The best wifi router for small/medium office and home. I like everything. An indispensable thing for teaching network technologies. It doesn’t crash, it gives out the…

An excellent device, I have had it for six months already - I can not get enough of it. There were asusas, and netgirs, and trendnets, but none of them worked stably. I think that in the market of SOHO devices for 2600. there is nothing better. Some pros: OS, customization, stability, Wi-Fi quality, powerful processor, watchdog timer, dimensions/design, technical support answers questions (though in English). Has some cons Didn't find any special. The only thing that can be attributed to the…

Without a minimum knowledge of networks, setting it up will be very problematic. Approximate settings suitable for most and explanations for them on the Internet are more than enough. But if you want to solve a non-standard problem - don't count on free help and advice in RuNet :) Yes, and with a paid one, it's not very good either . I bought Cisco 857W instead. I don't regret buying :)

Impressions are extremely positive! Different pros: In terms of its capabilities - just top, you can configure it almost as you want, it supports skips - for home and small office with several providers - fire. WiFi power is a legend up to 1000 mW! (I have it set according to the standard - about 150 mW) - it breaks through the apartment. Cons below: I think not for such a price, well, except that when distributing from the HDD - the speed is low, alas, the NAS function is more like a small…

The device is really in the segment of budget options is just a top solution and definitely deserves attention! Some pros: The interface, a wide range of options, settings that open up a sea of ​​​​opportunities, the setup was not difficult, the waffle perfectly hammers through 2 byaton walls, copes with a bang under loads. I downloaded the firmware and flashed to the latest version myself, an excellent unit. (So, after 2 months of use - everything is just chic, set it up and forget it, it…

I chose this model exclusively as a router, wi-fi is used only for a smart home controller on a non-disconnectable group, and as an access point I use hAP AC2 Its pros: Yes, in general, everything is fine. The possibilities of RouterOS are colossal, even the younger models are suitable for both household tasks and small businesses, the main thing is to be able to set it all up. And of course, a separate item is the stability of work, a fat plus. Its cons: If you do not have basic networking…

It's great as a router and access point. Coverage, firewall, vpn server (from a mobile phone from free hotspots only through home pptp and I go to anyone) 100 megabits of torrents, + 3-4 people on the network and pages on the Internet do not slow down, I did not try to talk with voice (SIP) though , there will be no problems (qos is configured). In general, a router for the home is probably the best + good WIFI. But the speed on gigabit ports spoiled the impression until I rolled back to the…

at the moment, only the 5GHz band (8022022ac) is missing, because the neighbors have cluttered up the 2.4 GHz band, which is no longer comfortable with a smartphone in distant rooms (there is a connection, but the speed leaves much to be desired). Now I'm looking for a 5 GHz access point to pair with it. I considered, of course, the option to replace it with a fresh hAP AC model, but the price covers all its advantages.

I took to replace the Asus WL-520GU. Compare heaven and earth. Asus cut off the speed (with the declared 100 Mbps, it gave max. 20 Mbps), it always hung up every half a day (even with Tomato firmware and from Oleg). Reading the comments of previous users, I was afraid to take it, I thought that I was not in the mood. There were a million manuals (instructions). Set up in half an hour. Now when you forgot the files at home, you can simply turn on the computer through the router from your phone…

If you have not tried Mikrotik yet, be sure to try it, just to feel the difference. What you are used to seeing in Cisco, Juniper for $$$$$ is presented here for $$. Has pros: Performance, a strong Wi-Fi antenna, _everything_ is configurable up to an adequate shaper and (!) creating a virtual machine with another OS (openwrt, for example). The processor frequency is increased to 750Mhz by simply selecting the frequency in the settings. Different cons: It is difficult to figure out how to use…

WiFi network has been in operation for more than 4 years. Capsman made it possible to implement "seamless" roaming. These are pieces of iron for administrators, not house users. You need to understand what you are doing. But if you know what you are doing, then you can build a network of any scale for very little money. With its pros. If you want an almost complete analogue of the enterprise class at the price of SOHO, then there is no better option. Price, stability. Excess power. Some cons…

Has pros: In terms of its capabilities - just top, you can configure it almost as you want, it supports skips - for home and small office with several providers - fire. WiFi power is a legend up to 1000 mW! (I have it set according to the standard - about 150 mW) - it breaks through the apartment.
