Cons
Our editorial view of this model’s strengths and limitations.
No 6 GHz band
This model does not provide a separate 6 GHz band. If that is a requirement for a compatible laptop or phone, choose another router; the Wi-Fi generation alone does not guarantee it.
A learning curve
Getting comfortable with RouterOS takes time. Users who only want to plug in a cable and avoid configuration may prefer a simpler home router.
Performance depends on the whole network
The advertised router class is not the speed of a single download. Compatible clients, an appropriate internet plan and suitable conditions are required; antenna count does not guarantee coverage.
How do we assess advantages and disadvantages?
Our editorial assessment draws on specifications, manufacturer documentation and available material about the model. It does not imply our own laboratory testing. We distinguish physical RAM from virtual expansion; features and box contents can vary by market. Reference prices are conversions; check the store for the final price of an offer.
