Cisco Wireless Router Home Network

I've been working with a wireless Cisco network for several years now. I got fed up with licensing and cost issues and have been more than pleased with this. These were incredibly easy to deploy, and I've now got a great wireless network for a reasonable budget.

I have mostly Netgear equipment throughout my home network, and they have been very reliable. I had an older Cisco switch, which had some failing ports, so bought this to replace it. Worked without issue, and has been up and running for 4 months without issues.

This was an upgrade over my old Cisco PLC's. They power my network to an access point in another floor of my home. With the old PLCs (PLS400), I got 8-10Mbps. With the AV2000 I get 40-50 Mbs. I note that the power circuits for each of them is on the same phase of the breaker box. Someday I'll place my main lan line on them and measure actual speed. Until then, I'm most satisfied with performance. Time will tell reliability.

Fast Router. Feels like a quality made product, more like an industrial or enterprise product feel. I have my SB8200 cable modem on eth0, home office on eth1, and Linksys mesh network on eth2. It took me about 30 mins to setup being new to this type of router. Used basic wizard to setup. Made sure NAT was enabled. Firewall is enabled. I had to reset cable modem to get things going. I used various videos on you tube for setup help. Router CPU and RAM barely get used during testing of several 4K Video Streams, ip phone calls, file transfers, and speed tests running at the same time. My COX gigablast connection runs at full speed most of the time. I still need to do some real throughput testing, machine to machine on local network. I use Airflow and VLC to cast 4K content from home office to my living room entertainment center. I definitely noticed a time difference. It simply takes less time for actions to engage and finish. I can tell it has a better brain. Time will tell with reliability but I suspect it will be my router for a long time. So far, I'm happy with its performance.

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

Wanted a basic router to upgrade my wireless network..Simple to set up and works great..

Synology makes setting up this mesh router fairly simple. Power it on next to your router, use the DS router app and you're up and running in about 15 minutes. I have four of them and they are all wired. So make sure you follow the instructions and connect it wirelessly to the router first, then take it where you want on the network and plug it in. The ability to add a dozen of the MR2200's to my router means that I can create a reliable and fast wireless network that rivals my wired network in terms of square footage and then go beyond the building. My wireless devices automatically drop and connect as I move around. I could not be happier with this device because it is reliable and the range meets all my needs. I have no complaints from my network users.

Upgraded from 802.11ac router and wireless network was dramatically improved - both speed and reliability. Gigabit FiOS was previously bottle necked by old router but now getting much closer to advertised numbers. No longer having issues with mult computers accessing VPNs and/or simultaneous Zoom calls. Set-up took a few tries but now very reliable. Very happy with upgrade.

Speeds on the network seem fantastic after dumping my cable provider router! Both wireless and wired!

Needed to replace a wireless router with this router. Love the smaller footprint as it adds room in my network box.
