Configure Internet Access On Cisco Router

The UAP-AC-LR provides stable WiFi with a range comparable or better than most consumer routers, but gives additional control like the ability to create multiple SSID’s, configure tx and rx power, have fine control over channel usage, set bandwidth quotas and access restrictions by user group, etc. I paired mine with an EdgeRouter X to create a complete home networking solution with enterprise-level control. When considering this product you need to be aware of a few things: 1) This is a wireless access point only, not a router with built-in access point. You will need a separate router to route traffic on your network, and 2) You must install the controller software to configure this access point, and that certain features (statistics, reporting, manually applied user groups and the Guest Portal) require the controller software to be always running on your network; I installed it on a Raspberry Pi I already had, which works great. If either of these things sounds daunting to you, you may wish to consider the Ubiquity DreamMachine, an all-in-one controller, router and access point that also incorporates a firewall.

I needed internet access in an old building next to my house. It is too far away from my house to be supported by my wireless router. However, it does share electrical wiring with my house. Running new Cat5 cables was not a good solutions for a variety of reasons so I decided to try TP-Link's AV100 Gigabit Powerline Starter kit. The setup was very easy, basically plug and play. The price was very affordable. While not as fast as a direct connection, it still meets my needs.

If you’re like me and live off grid and cellular is your only means to access the internet this device is amazing. It works just like my old router when I lived in the city and had internet.

Great to have this Netgear CM700 modem to access internet by plug into Laptop directly. then need a router to get WiFi working.

I am replacing an aging cisco managed switch and router for a small business and this was perfect for my application. The VLAN tagging in unison with my EdgeRouter Lite was easy to configure after some research online. Pros: Fits my application. Easy to configure through wizards after some research. Cons: Information on configuring VLANS and general setup not included with the switch. Needed to do research online to configure. Unit required firmware updates to get full functional wizards.

Router is easy to set up and is easy to configure. Have been using it for a week and no issues. It is faster than my previous router, without changing my ISP plan. Would definitely recommend it.

I was able to access the internet immediately with this Netgear product.

Allows me to take advantage of fast internet access.

Replaced my old router. Nighthawk wasn easy to install and configure.

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.
