This was an update for an old 8 port gigabit router that died so I didn't really want a performance boost with it but it's been 60 days and there were problems free and as expected, very easy to set up. Connect the ethernet cables, run it and you're done. There's no control page for it, but it does what it's supposed to, so it really is "set and forget". It is connected to an uninterruptible backup power supply and has not been powered off or restarted since initial installation. I have about 12 or more devices connected to it, 8 of which are PCs, and then there's a ROKU, an XBox One, a NAS device, a Sonos media controller, a few other random network devices (like a TV and cable box), and a or two printers. Seems stable, no crashes and very fast although I haven't run any actual benchmarks.
