Decent router with poor web interface

I am trying to replace my old Verizon FIOS router. The initial setup was a bit disappointing as at some point I lost access to the UI via the web address and I had to troubleshoot an issue with Google to disable LTE on my phone and use the IP address to restore access. After setting everything works. But the router settings are so limited. You can only change basic settings, WiFi names, passwords and nothing else. No Wi-Fi channel setting, no security settings, no USB tab. I was also very happy with the router's LCD screen. But it's hardly usable because it always points up. You can't put the router on its edge, since all the cables are directed upwards, but you can't sideways, since the information on the LCD screen doesn't rotate, nor is there such an option in the user interface. The device list has truncated names and is therefore unusable. Cannot change Celsius/Fahrenheit for Weather tab. Etc. I am very disappointed with the web interface.

Pros
  • Complete kit
Cons
  • Weight
