Apple Wireless Router Setup

I purchased this as a replacement for my first generation Apple AirPort Extreme that had a failing fan. I did not need wireless in a router because my current home setup already has an independent solution. My only concern was speed. I have several test routers and none of them could deliver the maximum bandwidth that my ISP provides. After running the extremely easy setup it was obvious that speed was not an issue with this router. Even with traffic analysis enabled there is no speed, ram, or cpu issues. Best router for the money on the market.

Owning a small rancher (1500 sq ft) with a quantity of 802.xx devices (20 or more), a significant amount of electrical magnetic interference, and 75mb up/downstream Fios service, we use Verizon's modem but bypass their (wimpy) wireless router. We had been running an Apple airport extreme and airport express for the several past years, with marginal connectivity at the furthest ends of our home (we run 10 pieces of Sonos gear continuously throughout the house). We tried a newer 802.ac apple router a couple of years ago, but that too, didn't do the job. Apple, having announced it was going out of the router business a month or so ago, led us to other mesh based alternatives (and personal recommendations re: their commercial equipment), turning to Ubiquity for their home product (AmpliFi HD), just released. Along with the router, the bundle we purchased has two mesh extensions which we have plugged in midway and at the end of our rancher (the router being in our office at the other end). The unit, designed to cover 20k feet is, without question, overkill. But when our children, grandkids and sponsored midshipmen come over, we can be looking at an additional dozen 802.xx devices, and when everybody starts streaming, it can be rough riding. Without getting into the weeds, this handles everything thrown at it without a hiccup, delivering 10x the throughput our apple setup delivered (60+ mb/s v. 6mb/s) at the furthest distance from the router. The setup can be configured via your desktop or phone, with the one caveat we encountered requiring you to turn off your controlling device's VPN during configuration. We have yet to set up our guest network, but will do that shortly. In the interim, we went over to our neighbor's house, diagonally across the street, where we got a strong 4 bar signal! (yes, it has several security protocols). The package is not cheap, but if it lasts as long as our last setup, this should be good for many years.

Hello Asus. This wireless router is excellent. Easy to setup and works great. This is my 3rd Asus wireless router and when it's time for a new one down the line I will purchase another Asus product.

Upon doing a lot of research between other cable modem/router combos, I finally decided the Netgear Nighthawk AC1900 was the best selection to fit my needs. I live in a home that is 1850 square ft and the wireless coverage reaches in all areas of the entire house with no problem as I performed multiple speed tests and the results were very consistent throughout. The setup through the router setup management interface was seamless and very user friendly. I was able to set up my 2.4Ghz, 5 GHz, and guest wireless networks in 3 minutes. I also like the fact that you can set parental controls to manage usage time and block inappropriate websites. The Netgear ReadyShare Vault is extremely handy for me so that I can share movies, pictures, and files across the network. Overall, I would highly recommend this product!

This cable modem and wireless router is the way to go! Much better than my old setup with the cable company that I had to put a wireless router behind. It eliminated many problems and I no longer have to trouble shoot between the two of them. One device and is providing me with faster internet and wireless speeds, this modem/router is the way to go for any cable user.

I turned the wireless router i was renting should have done it sooner no buffing better picture setup was easy with you IT support I reviewed it first had the best rating very satisfied with the product

Saw previous reviews where people were saying they had issues with it. I have an old wireless router that I setup (don't connect this to the internet) and use this to route pix from my D5 to my laptop. I previously used the tethered setup and that worked fine and I've done limited tests. I have a couple of larger events in the upcoming weeks where I will be using this but so far so good.

Very easy clean setup with this UAP. I wanted to relocate my wireless access point (wireless router) from it's poor location so I was able to cleanly install this on top of my entertainment center with only a single CAT5E cable. Works like a charm. SETUP The product was very simple to setup. I ended up at first just using the iOS app to set it up which allow for you to get it up and running quickly. I then later installed the controller software on my iMac (after deciding my raspberry pi wasn't a good idea). The software is much more robust in terms of what it can do. Here you can RF scan, and check your site out. The controller software isnt required to run all the time so this is a good option to see what it can do. Only certain features will require it to be running all the time. Overall I'm very happy and am planning on purchasing a Ubiquiti Edge ER-X router in the near future and possibly even a Unifi Cloud Key, although, for a residential unit, it's not really needed.

One of the best wireless headphones. I've got the apple EarPods and these are way better.

Excellent router that covers my whole home and all my wireless products.
