Slows down my internet speed by half!
After dealing with this for quite some time, I am not really sure what it CAN be used for. No IP reservations (tech support told me to buy a more expensive unit if I want that!). No real WAN fall-over. So I just decided to use it as a switch to change between my two internet providers. BUT I found that having it between my internet and a REAL router slows the speed by HALF. What would anyone ever use this for? How is it helpful in any way?

Solid Multi-WAN Router for Backup Connections!
This TP-Link Festa FR205 router provides reliable multi-WAN functionality. Connecting it to the online portal unlocks its full potential, making configuration straightforward. The ability to configure multiple upstreams allows for effective load balancing, providing a cost-effective backup solution. It functions well as a basic load balancer for redundant connections. The setup process is relatively simple, and the cloud management interface is user-friendly. The robust metal casing and fanless design are a plus. For small businesses or users needing reliable backup connectivity, this router is a good option.

Little to no customization options
It's fine if you just need a plug-and-play router. But if you need to configure static IP's or port forwarding, this does not have the capability to do so.
