Overview
A home gamer or network hobbyist gets a dual-band router with OpenWrt pre-installed and two multi-gig ports among six wired connections. Retractable antennas and a touch control interface cover setup.
Fast radios, multi-gig wired ports and a built-in VPN client suit busy households and gaming. The listing gives no firmware support dates and describes coverage only as wide.
Who it's for
A home network user who values OpenWrt, VPN options and fast wired ports. People who want the easiest possible setup, or a mesh for a large house, should look elsewhere.
Pros and cons
- Fast dual band radios
- Two multi-gig ports
- VPN client support
- Coverage claim is vague
- Advanced settings can overwhelm
- Dual band only
- Firmware support dates not given
Performance notes
Real speed is capped by the internet plan and the client's Wi-Fi generation, and the faster band carries the quickest connections at shorter range. VPN encryption uses router processing power, which lowers throughput on busy connections. Multi-gig ports let a fast uplink reach wired devices without a bottleneck.
