    The signal is solid when near the router. The moment you go outside the signal is non existent. I plan to experiment with placement (I have two), but I would not recommend this product for someone looking to have WiFi in their front or backyard. I’m also experiencing issues with my printer over wifi (due to frequency range). There are adjustments that have improved this, but it’s not perfect. Will continue to play with the settings.

    A welcome to our family, replacing two Net gear 6 products. My only downside, is you need Android 8 or above to download the install app to your cell phone. Probably not an issue for most, just love my Samsung Active, yet its Android 7. I used my wife's newer Iphone to finish the install. Has not dropped a connection at all

    Replaced a Cisco Meraki WiFi router with the Alien and have been quite happy so far (3 weeks). Wifi 6 speeds are very good, overall WiFi range has been equal to the Meraki but with slightly faster speeds. Only issue I’ve noticed is how iPhones in our condo take a little bit to get a data connection when the router is bandwidth steering the device from the 5ghz network to the 2.4ghz network. I created static IPs for the phones and that seems to have helped a bit.

    Extremely Powerful Wifi 6 Router

    This Router is one of the strongest Routers I've ever had. Unfortunately the signal strength is a bit wonky, mostly due to the types of houses and thr materials used, but you can always use the 4 included ethernet ports to make sure your connection is at MAX. Speaking of max, did you know you can have about 5 and maybe even more Wifi Networks? If you have Gigabit internet, this is the one to use.

    Purchased this router based on other reviews, after I researched solutions to a weak Wi-Fi signal in certain areas of my home. It was very easy to set up, and it has boosted the Wi-Fi signal to where I needed it. Highly recommended
