Powerful feature set but a bit unstable

I bought this to replace more expensive Cisco devices that have network limitations (e.g. ASA5505 and 871W). The main features I liked about this model: Multi-VLAN capabilities and routing between VLANs. Ability to bind multiple WiFi SSIDs to one device. Big. IPSEC VPN capabilities are built into the device. Can be used as an EZVPN client in NE mode. The price of this small business line was also much lower than the high-end Cisco devices. Now for the cons: If you've read other posts about code

Pros
  • Sleek design
Cons
  • Infinitely sluggish

Will not buy again

I bought this router for a small LAN. I need a VPN firewall to allow remote access to my local network. I had problems as soon as I connected this device. A router is theoretically full of functions. However, the problems I had with it cost me a lot of money in the form of downtime and hassle. 1.) The router has a problem with DNS routing when the network is at full speed. We regularly see many "page cannot be displayed" errors in our network. 2.) The router is liable for damage to e-mail…

Pros
  • Very good value for money
Cons
  • Long delivery time

Works, with some serious flaws

The biggest problem with this device is the poor documentation. Although this is a long document, it doesn't say anything, it just replicates the user interface on the device. He doesn't explain further. The second problem is that it's just not finished yet. There are many small glitches and a few big ones. Only the first version of the firmware is currently available. You will probably want to wait for the next update. Don't think about it if you don't have any business networking experience…

Pros
  • So far so good
Cons
  • Definitely a bad product

poorly made device - computers and accessories

1, the VPN function never worked. sent 100% cpu usage and then you lost all wireless/internet access functionality. 2 Ethernet port is problematic. I have wireless clients that were working fine, but my servers connected to the ethernet port are not able to upload or download files/images properly. In the end they are all corrupted. While the same file/image can be downloaded/uploaded wirelessly. I changed the ethernet port, I changed the computer, the problem was with the ethernet ports.3 I…

Pros
  • certified
Cons
  • hard to remember but it was the number
