500 Mbps Wireless Router

We have a n router, not an AC standard router, but, compared to the adapter built into our relatively new laptop, the wireless download speed increased from about 20 Mbps to 36. Our hard wired service from Comcast into the router is about 85-90 Mbps so there is speed loss in wireless, but it's much less with this adapter than the one that is built into our Dell laptop. Plus, if we ever buy a new router, (and possible upgrade our Comcast internet service), we may be able to take advantage of the higher AC band speed.

I am very impressed with the RT2600AC Wireless Dual-Band Gigabit Router. It was very easy to setup and update the firmware. It was so much easier than the troublesome TP-Link Archer AC1900 that I replaced. The Synology Router firmware does not require compression software. You just click find update and load it with the control software that is included. The dual bands are more than capable of handling many devices with ease. I have the Blast 150 Mbps package and my Xfinity speeds are now 230-240 Mbps. I am extremely pleased and highly recommend this router. I will buy Synology again. B&H is also fantastic.

I was having issues with my smart devices and streaming HDTV. My wireless system was only giving me about 100 Mbps even though my cable internet was 800 Mbps. I looked into buying faster internet and discovered if I I wanted the cable company’s top speed of 1.2 Gbps, I needed a new modem. I purchased the latest and greatest cable modem, which was one model newer and capable of 2.5 Gbps. My internet speed didn’t get better. So, I decided to replace my wireless router. I researched the wireless routers available. The three key areas I concentrated on were the WAN connection speed, coverage and wireless specifications included. The ASUS ZenWiFi Pro ET12 was the best in all three categories and the only router I found that had all three top of the line specifications. WAN - 2.5 Gbps Wireless - WiFi 6E Home Coverage - One router and one node replaced one router and five nodes. My coverage is better with less nodes. All my smart devices and my streaming HDTV are working great and I’m getting 950 Mbps internet speed. Smartest upgrade I’ve made.

I bought this and the nighthawk router, paired together they work great and I’m getting more MBPS than I am even paying for!

Very pleased with ease of installation. Handles my 500 Mbps service with room to spare and I tied it to Orbi wifi 6 router. The modem is well worth its price!!

This unit will do 1000 Mbps and our internet provider supplies 300 with option to 400 or 500. This modem will last long into the future. Great quality!

When I first set this up I was getting speeds around 500 mbps on my gigabit connection. With a recent firmware update you can enable hardware offloading and with it I am getting speeds in the 900's. Just be aware this does not have hardware switching so if you do not have a separate switch you will loose some performance by bridging ports 1-4.

My wireless speed increased to 450 Mbps. I love it

Replacing the router I had with CM1000 solved all the problems I had with my wifi speed. The speed rose from 75 Mbps to over 300 Mbps which was what I was supposed to get. The installation is easy and Netgear has simplified it to the greatest extent. The price paid is well worth! Go ahead if you are undecided to buy one!

Right up front I am very happy with the Ubiquiti Dream Machine Pro and the associated accessories I got to complete the setup.  To round out the needed equipment I also got two nanoHD APs, one UAP-AC-PRO,  and a US-16-150W managed POE switch.  I am not affiliated with anyone in this business, and I personally purchase everything I own. Going to Ubiquiti was a big step for me.  At around 2700 sq ft my house is not that big, but I have around 50+ network devices and some of their their locations are at the extremes of the residence with some being outside.   I also have a Comcast Xfinity internet plan that provides for 600 mbps down and 15 mbps up.   I have tried three different high end mesh router systems (not Ubiquiti) and never quite got to the experience and performance I wanted.  I found all of the MESH systems a bit quirky regarding stability and hit and miss with speed.    My experience with the UDMP has been great so far (about two weeks).  I feel like there might be more to gain in the area of tuning, which is all part of the adventure, but if it gets no better at all I will still be very happy.  The system is very stable, has fabulous features, and gives me 300-500 WiFi speeds which is great. There are some caveats and potential downsides here that should be mentioned.  The UDMP is a great piece of equipment and is the heart of the Unifi network, should you choose this controller, but this is not a typical consumer product like an off the shelf router.  Do your homework before jumping into this, because there are several parts that need to work together,  a fair amount  of work putting it all in, and a bit of networking know-how getting things all configured.  Don’t expect any instructions or a user manual.  You might not know what to do with it out of the box, but there is plenty of help online.  For the technical go-getter with some time and money to spare you will have a really great system when it’s complete.
