### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Router is Great

It works super great!!! If you bought the spectrum router you must cancel it first for this product to work.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ This is worth a serious look.
*by C***R on March 7, 2020*

To start I would like to say that I almost returned this product before I even opened the box. The box was covered in Chinese lettering and not a word of english was on the package. I thought that maybe I was sent the incorrect unit. I ended up taking a gamble though and opened it up. Yes, the directions were also in Chinese. At this point I was laughing as I was making sure the serial numbers were the product I ordered and not something else. Sure enough it was the correct product. So how does it hold up? Let's find out! I'm pretty tech savvy, so even though everything was in Chinese it was pretty self explanatory. Set up was easy. Plug in ethernet from modem and power adapter and boom! I was off to the races. Luckily I knew this router had an app to control it on my phone, so set up was even easier since that was in english. The process was simple after making an account. It walks you through step by step on setting both your 5g and 2.4g network. I think it took me less than 5 minutes to do so. I currently have 9 devices set up on it. From computers to smart TVs to xboxes they are all on. This router is no slouch. It will run all 9 devices at the same time without a hitch. (I should mention that my internet is 400 down and 100 up). Signal strength is great. I currently live in a 1400 sq. ft. home and I have full bars in every room I stand in from upstairs to basement. I get some signal loss when I step outside, but I was also expecting that to happen. Either way, two thumbs up here. The ease of use of the app is really nice. My wife is not tech savvy at all. I showed her the app and the simple controls to regulate the kids internet and she was loving it. So even if you're not that great with computers or routers this unit makes it easy. Want to restrict the amount of data a particular device uses? Simple setting for that. Want to shut off service altogether to a particular device? It's easy with the push of a button. This is by far the easiest router I have ever used. So this gets a recommendation right? Easy buy? Well that depends. Are you wanting to hook up multiple devices to this using ethernet cables and not use wireless? You may be disappointed here then. You get two ports... That's it. Most give you 4. Then again for 36 bucks what do you expect. Just keep this in mind as make your purchase. I didn't need them, so I wasn't worried about it. To conclude I really like what I have here. So far it's great. I will come back after 6 months and give an update, but I think that this is going to work really well. Just be warned!!!! The box may not be what you're expecting...
