Review on Wireless Router ASUS WL-520GU by Akemi Tsuruoka ᠌

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Not particularly happy with it, but it's mostly okay.

Bought in August 2022 after the same model that worked, attention, 7 years! True, the previous one worked on the firmware from Oleg! Having bought the same one in 2022, I was surprised that the router is often buggy, the Sony SP smartphone or the second laptop does not connect. I had to reload. Sometimes (a couple of times) the voltage jumps, but now not as often as in the past. As a result, after 7 months of lousy and unstable work of the WL-520: on March 22, while watching a movie on YouTube, Wi-Fi disappeared. Here it is the wireless reliability (translation of the abbreviation Wi-Fi) of the ASUS router! Sarcasm. =)) I decided to reboot, and my favorite ASUS WL-520GU router died completely. The signal indicator and networks are blinking, but from wi-fi - no. Resetting to factory settings did nothing. I couldn't even connect to it by wire. I took it to the guarantee at Shelepikhinskaya 18. I'm waiting for repairs. No wonder it's no longer for sale. But before him, the same one worked from 2022 to 2022. ate 03/28/2022. A couple of days after I gave the CPC at Shelepihenskaya 18 for warranty repair, I received an SMS and an e-mail message about the completion of the repair. Arrived, handed a new Asus wl-520gu without any questions. So the ASUS warranty service in the face of the CPC service is very good! Let's see how long this router will live. =)

Pros
  • Design. Easy to set up. That's all.
Cons
  • Wi-Fi with native firmware fell off, which is especially for 2022.
