Almost, but not quite

I REALLY wanted this to work as it is one of only 2 consumer oriented routers I could find with 2 multi port ports. I bought it to take advantage of my recently upgraded modem speed and new Qnap NAS. After a very difficult setup I was able to go online. My internet speed was off the charts and it worked flawlessly. The speed of my brand new QNap has also doubled. both use QHora 2.5+ ports. But the love ended quickly. First, the 5GHz signal range is very weak. Due to the pandemic, my wife and I…

Pros
  • Unsubscribed SD-WAN Service: Network Optimization - Internet bandwidth aggregation, failover and load balancing for fast, uninterrupted connectivity; Cloud Managed Network - Single portal for multi-device monitoring and enterprise-wide policy routing.
Cons
  • No Insurance

Updated: Latest Firmware Cuts Throughput in Half (Solved) + Tuning Info

Bought to route my xfinity at 1.3Gbps over 10GbE WAN LAN ports. Was working great until I updated the firmware to version 1.6 and the throughput dropped by half. I couldn't do anything to improve performance. You can download older firmware but you can't use it because the UI says you already have a newer version. Support ticket opened but no response from qnap. WLAN also works great, but the range is very limited. Really decent router but they need to fix the firmware. Update: Worked with QNAP

Pros
  • Powerful Processor: Quad-core processor improves wireless, wired, and WAN-to-LAN performance.
Cons
  • confused

Detailed instructions are not included. LAN 1 is the default WAN.

I like that this router is an advanced office device that is sold at a price and for home use. I bought it to unbottleneck my old modem and router by using gigabit ports with gigabit service. I've seen a 150-200Mbps speed increase by upgrading my network with this router. I turned off Wi-Fi because it's bullshit. You can't just go 40MHz, 80MHz, or 160MHz, but you can force all Wi-Fi networks to run at 20MHz, so it's weird. I don't remember seeing WPA3 either. Many settings require you to create

Pros
  • 8 internal antennas: Powerful amplifiers and antennas ensure wide Wi-Fi coverage.
Cons
  • unreliable

Please See USED/UPDATED

I bought this product in the used/refurbished/refurbished section. The details said the top of the device was badly worn, so it was reduced by about 100 bones over the cost of a new device ($230 new). The case had no scratches and looked like new. Everything was fine, or so I thought. My usage is the main router for the rest of my network - see attached photo. The main purpose is that I can use the full 1.22GB download speed that my ISP is offering. I've recently found that every now and then…

Pros
  • Dual 10GbE Ports: Configurable WAN/LAN.
Cons
  • Definitely bad product
