Review on Wireless Router ASUS WL-520GU by Goro Ueda ᠌

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Average quality of the product, especially for the money.

Good device for your money. Ideal for home use if you don't have PPPoE. To be honest, I expected more in terms of signal strength. If they don’t fix the jamb in the next firmware with getting the settings, I’ll change it. Fix it - leave it. Different pros: Adequate price, excellent build quality, easy setup, quite user-friendly interface, especially with new firmware. Its cons: I'll start with the preliminaries. There is no way to configure the device through the command line (or I just don't know how?). Che-thread there pokavyryat in the firmware will not work, in a word. And every time you go through the web interface and click an incredible number of times - it's not very convenient, but it's IMHO of course. The device really does not like different "screens". I am sitting with a laptop in a room far from its location and the signal is very thin as it gets to me. In general, if you have a lot of different wires going around the apartment (like mine) and a lot of walls - think about it. Well, here's a maddening flaw - periodically "lost" in getting settings from the provider (via PPPoE). Previously, I sat on a static IP, everything was fine. So I dare to assume that the flaw is in the software part of the router. Firmware ate doesn't help.
