A lot of features. Probably more than most would need. Personally I feel like all routers in general are over priced these days.
Pros:
IPS firewall.
VPN client and server compatible
Can use custom firmwares without losing many features.
Blocks and reports infected devices.
A lot of the software is open source.
Cons:
I have ZERO faith in the radios. My first one burnt out in a day. If yours reports channel 0 and the radio is on then it is fried.
It runs way too hot. 60-70c is too hot
Cost.
As of this time no WPA3 possibly up-gradable for WPA3.
Honestly For the price I would build a system to use as a gateway / server. Just find an older tower system add some nic cards to it and you will have a more reliable faster gateway and media server than this. Plus you'll have something you built that you would be proud of.

I bought mine in October 2016 it is now February 2018 and I have no complaints about it. I’ve never had an issue with WiFi print or the amount of devices connected to the router. I need to do a soft power reset every great blue moon but that’s expected with any router. It is an amazing product and worked far better then I had expected.

I am like many and from time to time on a conistent basis had very hit-or-miss internet. When two notebooks were going at the same time - you got it - conflicts over bandwidth and slow wifi.
Not any more!!!!!
This product will not disappoint if you are looking for high speed wifi

I am about as Tech "Unsavvy" as they get. I was having problems with my tablet and phone being kicked out of a control app for a piece of equipment I have and I was recommended this router. Now my entire house is solid all of the time. I haven't explored all of the capabilities of this router but so far so good!

I owned multiple routers in the past and last one I used was Linksys WRT 32x and to be honest, it is not the most secure router out there. If you care about security, I would highly recommend Asus, Apple, or Ubiquity access point since they constantly update their firmware with new features and update their security constantly.

The router performance and signal reach is amazing, the only down side is the fact that for use this device with all its features you need to agree to share you internet use with a third party vendor for "research purposes". But if you only need a high speed router with awesome signal reach, this is your device.

Router works great. Signal is great inside but could be a little better it is sometimes weak from garage a few hundred feet away. Possible because of walls blocked and it is on a high shelf. Still giving it 5 starts because I did my research and got a good deal.

I have had a good experience with this router so far! First I purchased a Netgear nighthawk tri-band router in which I returned for this one! It was a good decision. I have not had any stability issues with this router and I would highly recommend it to anybody!
