Spent hrs trying to get it to work 45 mins with support finally started working 3hts later nothing again and wouldn’t accept its serial number even to gett try it going again returned right away got the ild one hooked up again
Would give this 5 stars if 1. Location of manual were easy to find. 2. If I really needed another DHCP server. What I need is faster WiFi. I do not need or want any of the router functionality. This think should work like a switch not a router. With this thing, I have to add additional network card to my file server. And forget about accessing my printer from the new network it insists on creating.
I've been using a certified refurbished C6300v2 for about 3 weeks now. No problems whatsoever! The setup was as easy as should be. Works great with my Xfinity cable connection.
Good setup; meets our needs. However, LEDs are TOO bright! Had to put a strip of yellow gaffers tape across them to dim them and be able to read the symbols.
I wasn't sure which router to go with and ultimately chose this one. It's from a reputable brand (I think). I have connected about 15 devices to it at once with a 60 mb/s internet speed and have had no problems in my three-room apartment.
After my old Netgear router was hit by lightning, I purchased a new AC1750 router. The wifi around my house increased on average 25 - 30 Mbps. Great router, I would highly recommend it if you need a new router.
