Review on πŸ”Œ 5-Port Edgerouter Router with Power over Ethernet (PoE) by Larry Allen

Revainrating 2 out of 5

The best router I've ever had.

I've had this router for over two years now and am impressed. I'm good with computers, but I'm by no means a networking expert. This router seems to have everything I could possibly want: 100% reliable, clean and feature rich user interface, PoE, QoS, WAN failover, it has everything I need. After purchasing it, I received two of my access points and was equally impressed. I've never had such a stable network at home, now it rivals the office! The only thing that really bothers me is that the QoS speed is limited to 120 Mbit/s. In most urban areas, we're starting to see faster speeds than this. In my case I disabled QoS for downstream but left it enabled for upstream and it works fine for my asymmetric speeds. It would be nice to have two things: 1) I would love the network level authentication feature. 2) It would be nice if it came with a rackmount adapter, it's great for home/small office with racks.

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Very expensive
