Cisco Wireless Router Software Update

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.

The typical home wireless router puts everything in one box - the router, software, and wireless access points. UniFi breaks it apart into plug and play modules that you can place anywhere independently. This gives way more configuration options which is all straight forward with the UniFi software. For those a little more knowledgeable on networking this is an awesome setup to have. Originally I plugged the UAP-AC-LITE into a EdgeRouterX but after power issues I upgraded to the Security Gateway which is a much better experience. Installed the UniFi software on my Macbook Air, it found and provisioned both, and I was up and running. Once it was configured I now only run the UniFi software when there's a need to check the system. This is enterprise grade with well considered management options and monitoring through an intuitive interface (four WiFi networks, customizable guest web page, deep packet inspection...) Great performance thus far, and with the UAP-AC-LITE using PoE I can have it on UPS while placing it anywhere there is an Ethernet port, like tucked behind the TV :-) Now looking to invest in a Cloud key (an independent little box to run the UniFi software) and a UniFi switch (to give more PoE). I'm hooked...

I got this to replace all of our wireless needs. I disabled wireless on our router and use this AP as our only source of wifi. The software is so amazing. We get better range and speeds in our home. Going to get the Ubiquiti USG and switch later.

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.

Update the firmware, use the wizards, these Edgerouters have replaced Sonicwall's and Cisco products in my client's offices. Great improvement.

My old Cisco stopped and had to get a new one. Just bought a new Night Hawk router a few months ago. This new modem is really fast and pairs up very easily

I bought this router with my neighbor's recommendation (he is a certified Cisco Networking Professional). It is very configurable. It has apps that you can download such as for home network security and child protection. I would definitely recommend this product.

Why review a cable? The answer is if you want to update your software you better have this cable.

This is a fantastic router with even better software. Just buy it!

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.
