Configure Your Wireless Router Gateway

I have been looking to replace my wireless gateway from Comcast for a while now. Recently some new products such as the Google Home caught my attention since they had multiple access points that are placed around your house. This setup has been used in enterprise for years. The only downfall which made me stay away was the lack of customization and advanced features. Using the Synology Router has been like no other. The user interface is the best I have every used, there are so many features and add-ons, I have yet to use them all. Some key points of the router is the 802.11ac antennas, they also operate at a newer channel so currently I am the only one in my apartment complex to be on this channel. The add-ons that are built into the router are pretty useful, my favorite is intrustion prevention since it will monitor network traffic and alert and or block traffic is reconginizes as being harmful. Overal I love this router, many of the issues I had with the range and connectivity on my old gateway have been resolved with this new router. I will continue to purchase their routers in the future. #sweepstakes

This router works well with other Ubiquity Unifi devices including managed switches, wireless access points and network extenders. This router is fast. The self hosted server app works well on a Windows 10 pc. What isn't clear from the product description or BHP tech support is that the 2.5 GB ports adapt to 1 GB connections and that this router can replace an older Ubiquity UniFi router by plug and play. All that is needed, is to replace the new router on the gateway connection and adopt the device. Once you adopt the new router you get a message saying you can't have 2 gateways. Then just go and forget/remove the old gateway router from the app and re-adopt the new gateway router. Give it a bit of time and all the settings will be automatically applied to the new router. I have a xfinity cable modem, UniFi gateway router, 2 UniFi 8 port managed switched, 1 UniFi WAP, 2 UniFi Beacon wireless network extenders and about 50 network devices managed with a fixed ip setup. My only complaint is that nobody at BHP or Ubiquity could give me a straight answer on upgrading the router.

I plugged in one of the router outputs from my AT&T wireless gateway and distributed it to wall jacks and 2 Ubiquiti UniFi AC Pro access points (also bought from B&H) via PoE and everything just worked. Not sure why I waited so long to do this.

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.

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

Always wanted to try out UniFi and have a 19 rack setup so I purchased this gateway (router). Has a lot of stuff built-in like CloudKey (to host the UniFi controller software), 8-port managed switch, NVR (software and hard drive bay to record cameras). The small touchscreen is neat to quickly checkout some stats on it. Very quiet operations.

I purchased this UniFI Gateway Lite to replaced an older Edge Router X. I wish I had gotten this Gateway sooner, as it streamlines maintenance, usage monitoring, bandwidth prioritization, etc, easily using either web or phone app interfaces. Great product (using with UniFi Cloud Key Gen 2+, Switch-8, Switch-24 and Unifi WiFi APs).

The router was easy to setup after creating an account. The instructions manual which was downloaded from the site was handy, but really not needed for the setup. The setup was easy due to the on-screen information and easy to fill fields. This router is connected to my carrier's gateway using the IP pass-through method, thus it assigned a WAN IP to the router so I could create a separate network. The Asus RT-AX88U Pro is powerful. It covered more square footage with higher signal levels than the gateway installed by my carrier. I love its enhanced security features, which are standard and at no additional cost to the user, unlike other router manufacturers that charge a fee for such services. This is an outstanding router and highly recommended. It delivers the features and performance as advertised and seen in online reviews.

I replaced my Cox Panoramic Wifi Gateway router with the CM1000v2 and the difference is night and day. I was normally getting about 120MB even though I was paying for Gigablast. Once I put the CM1000v2 and the Orbi mesh network in place, the average speed is 900MB. I highly recommend this modem. Easy to set up and install. Well done, Netgear!

After using the gateway provided by my ISP for years I always felt something was off/missing. When I upgraded to a modem and router of my own instead of renting I immediately noticed a difference. Better connectivity, faster response, lower latency, and almost no lag ever. Significant drop in ping in online games as well.
