Revainrating 4 out of 5

No complaints, I recommend to buy.

A very complex thing. For the house - an explosion of the brain, not a router. I am a system administrator with many years of experience, but when I first turned it on, even I was simply stunned by this piece of iron. I tried easy setup - a useless thing, everywhere on the internet they also write that it makes no sense to even try to configure it through it. Full setup of the beeline Internet and iptv with an understanding of the essence of this device took me about 8 hours stretched over 2 days. Speed ​​does not cut, everything flies. Conclusion - for the home, this is too cool a router. I have zyxel keenetic, which is still the first with NDMS 2.04 firmware, the setup even on it is very fast and simple, the interface is clear, everything is in order with it, it works like a clock for more than 3 years, so I’ll only buy Zyxel for myself at home, unless I choose Giga or Ultra, but Mikrotik for home - NEVER. For a small office - that's what it is for, for a home its functionality is too great, and the settings are too complicated.

Pros
  • Wide possibilities. Low price. Professional technique. Lack of alternatives in the price range. Handy winbox utility.
Cons
  • Difficulty of setting. There is no simple setting for "dummies", or rather there is, but it does not work as it should. You need to enable any function yourself, and install many components additionally. The web interface works through time, "out of the box" does not work.
