Hardware failure
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Had high hopes for this router but after 2 days and a firmware update the fans stayed at 6500RPMs. After contacting support it was determined it was a hardware failure and router was returned.

Disappointed, not worth the price.
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Disappointed. Attempted to replace my Spectrum provided WiFi 6 router. Observed minimal speed improvement however NO improvement in coverage. Yes, feature rich compared to the Spectrum router but not worth the price. Returned.

Overpriced router
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Overpriced garbage, my old google router worked better then this, I simply wanted to upgrade my Wi-Fi experience in home and the alien got raving reviews but just did not deliver the results I was looking for a 400$ router

Ok better ones out there.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bout to mesh with existing. Speeds are slow and my 5ghz radio on my main failed one week after connecting as a mesh. Going to switch to Orbi. Only feature I really like about the alien is the Teleport feature which is great when traveling but not worth the headache. Amplifi support is great.

Don't waste your money
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Looks super cool for a router. LCD screen stopped working after about 4 months. Tech support on their side isn't helpful either. Do yourself a favor and just get an ROG router.

Mobile app required for management.
||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Buyer beware. You can't manage this router up without the app. What, dear reader, do you do if the latest firmware refuses to give your mobile device an IP address? Id love to hear other options, because currently I'm screaming into the void and looking for a new router (one definitely not made by a company that requires you to have an app to access the management interface).

Limited customization.... returning mine
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This thing is really cool... But if you cannot disable the DHCP server and you can not set a subnet mask other than 24 bit.... Unless you put it in bridge mode and only use it as a standalone wireless access point... If you use your own DHCP server and/or use a LAN IP scheme other than 24 bit, don't waste your time.... Otherwise, I would recommend.

Little disappointed
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Works great for the gaming console and smart tv but on everything else my wifi seems to have gotten worse even when you are right next to it. Need to do some further research to see if there’s anything I can adjust

Great router
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great router, covers my condo without any problem and gets around 600m over Wi-Fi. I like it more than the tp link ax 11000 that i had.

I am not impressed, I want a refund.
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This device is so easy to compromise its ridiculous, it took a solid 30 seconds for an attacker to get through the NAT and initiate man-in-the-middle attacks. The device is a complete mess no matter how many times the thing has been reset, nor does the firmware update make any difference. Just waiting on figuring out when Ubiquiti wants to address the the fact that its NAT is worthless. It has no stateful firewall.

Great when the work but very unreliable.
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Really good when they work. After 8 months of reliable use the screen blacked out of one unit and the antenna quit working on the other. Received a replacement for the bad antenna and it lasted about 2 hours. Will try to return it once again. I will likely sell them. I cycled through about 6 of these.

Overrated and unreliable
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Night 1 the wifi backbone went down. Took 3 hrs to get it running again. Ethernet backbone was near impossible to get working when it should have been simple. Night 2, one had a complete wifi failure and would only connect to devices within 2ft.
