Thoroughly impressed with the performance of this router. I bought one for my home. Get signal at the end of the street 4 homes away. Setup was also ridiculously simple. Spectrum provides me with 200 mbps. And this router is actually performing above that consistently with 233 on average. It is an incredibly pricey router but the performance it provides is unmatched. Replaced my eero 6 system (had internet dropping issues). Have had zero issues with the alien 6 in the first 24 hours. For reference the router was installed at 3:29pm so every speed test after that time is with the alien.

I used to have the highly rated M9 plus AC2200 router. The 2 unit mesh covered my 1500sqft 2 storied house. However, it was unable to deliver my internet connection at its fullest. At the farthest point, I was getting about 150 down from a 600 down connection. I wanted to try out something that can provide me with the range and hence upgraded to the Alien. I have been super happy with the upgrade. This router(no mesh points) by itself covers my entire house and pushes almost 450 down from my 600 down connection at the farthest corner. My office is located on the 2nd floor right above the router and I get full up/down speeds on my mac. The best part is that my 2018 macbook can now take advantage of its 3 antennae. Something I missed in my previous router. 4X4 mimo has its advantages. The router is super easy to setup. gives enough options for the regular home user(less you are a geeky networking guy). The router looks fabulous. Its almost a show-piece with a nice screen showing network activity and the nice ring light that can be dimmed or shut-off if necessary. Now, not everything is good with the router. I wished at-least the availability of WPA3 and 160Mhz channel support. I hear that is something Ubiquiti is planning to roll in the future via firmware updates. I also wished that at this price point, the router should support 2.5G WAN or some sort of link aggregation. Consumer internet bandwidth maxes out at 1.2Gigs now. But having the capability wont hurt even if it's a novelty. Overall, I am pleased with the router's stability and performance. I am happy that it can push most of the bandwidth that I am paying for throughout my house.

This router is awesome, it was the easiest setup I’ve ever done. Took less then 2 mins to setup with my iPhone. The speeds have been exactly where they should be on ethernet cable and WiFi. I’ve had no buffering or connecting issues with any device in my house. I have currently twenty devices connected. 4x Smart TVs, washer, dryer, thermostat, 3 wyze cameras, multiple mobile devices, 2x PS4 Pro and 1x PS5 and a hardwired gaming desktop. Everything stays connected and runs flawlessly at all times. WiFi 6 works great with the PS5 and my iPhone 12 Pro Max. I bought this to replace my Netgear Nighthawk X6 as the flash memory in it wouldn’t hold the settings when resetting or a power outage. Their are cheaper alternatives that offer the same and maybe some more, buts it a sleek device that I have to keep in the open, the app works great, can customize names and icons for all devices connected, and see how their connected, signal strength. I’m very satisfied with my purchase. It’s an eye catcher to everyone and they love the way it looks.

I purchase two so i can run as a mesh network. I have a 3500sq ft home and this might be a little overkill but totally worth it. I've had dead zones in parts of my house like the garage (my gym) and the guest bedroom. With this setup, no more dread zones and I get 700mb in my backyard. I actually get internet 3 houses down from mine. The setup was so easy, I'm confident my 4 year old could have done it. Having a screen on your router is amazing but having touchscreen & the abilities to run a speed test on the screen of your router is next level awesome. Hands down the best router, bar none. 10 stars.

I got this router from Woodland Hills, CA Bestbuy. Honestly, I’m happy with this router. I currently have Spectrum Gigabit Service up to 980MBs. I was using the provided router and the wifi will loose traffic (connected but no internet). I was getting about 300-500mb (wifi) on my iPhone 11 Pro Max. Once I set up this AmpliFi Alien router and ran a speed test, I received 776mb up and 40.9mb down on my iPhone 11 Pro Max. Which is much better than the Spectrum provided router. The digital screen is nice to show what’s connected (wired/wireless) and other important information. I haven’t dove into the user manual yet regarding the online web portal to access the router. But I’m currently using the app and it’s extremely easy to set up. By default you will only be using one radio (SSID) that will run both 2.4 and 5ghz channel but if you go deeper into the router’s setting you’ll be able to enable a separate 2.4ghz WIFI 6, 5ghz Wifi 6 and 5ghz channel. For now I’m leaving the single channel using both bands since the router is able to assigned the bands for each device without any issues or user intervention. The only downside (Bestbuy) does not have the full mesh bundle, will you will to find another online provider like B&N etc.. who do have the bundle if you really need the additional mesh unit or go directly to AmpliFi and they have it as well. Only time will tell how this router will perform. Will return to update if any major issues come up.
