This modem is very bad. The wifi is very bad. The quality is very bad. The coverage is very bad. I am someone in the know, I can confirm this modem is basically useless. This modem is very bad.

When using the Web Interface make sure to create config backups before and after every change, stupid stuff such as using any capital letters in a MAC address will cause the Web UI to break requiring a reset.
So far the interface has broken twice by itself after just turning off and on, only way to fix is to reset with a pin/paperclip.
The 5GHz wifi can go about 4 meters without any objects in the way before dropping to a speed worse than 2.4GHz.

These routers are not as bad as some say. The trick is configure with a legacy browser like internet explorer, this is true of all routers though.
The interface wizard is easy to use and well thought out. They are a lot easier to configure than other routers like the netgear and asus routers.
The wireless is not bad as the other reviews make out, its definitely not great, but is above average. I have seen these routers inside metal cabinets and still having signal 10m away through two walls. You do need to narrow the 2.4Ghz band down to a 20MHz channel to avoid congestion from other neighboring WiFi. The 5G range is pretty good consideri...view more

i am an IT consultant installing entry level and mid level wifi system for businesses and homes. i would recommend this router for a simple home user with a small coverage area. There is a satellite\auxiliary access point is meant to have been released in march 2020 which is why i was on this products page in the first place, these should always be cabled back to the main router.
works well, just make sure your update it to the latest firmware(14) to ensure you don't experience any wifi dropouts works well, just make sure your update it to the latest firmware(14) to ensure you don't experience any wifi dropouts
All I can say is pick the red modem (fritz!box) over this horrible modem. Horrible wireless, doesn't matter what ISP supply this modem, you will suffer if you are using this modem.

This router was supplied by Orcon for their Gigantic internet offering. It has totally failed. I set it up and plugged it into the fibre entry router. It seemed to activate, but only one of the ethernet connections worked. Most of the network remained inactive. Much time on the phone resolved nothing. Eventually swapped it out for the old router and things are back to where they were before. I now have a high speed service (although I haven't been able to experience it!) but the same speed as before. Very unhappy. This router was supplied by Orcon for their Gigantic internet offering.

Didn't even buy it but was supplied by our internet provider (Trust power). Has very low bandwidth and noticeable signal drops in the house where we used to get signal. I suggest you swap it out and see the difference! Didn't even buy it but was supplied by our internet provider (Trust power).

The Wi-Fi range on this device is sub-par. If you can connect beyond a single room with doors open you're doing well. Having Wi-Fi capability is almost pointless.

This modem is a good choice if you plan on connecting every single one of your devices via ethernet cable. Both the 2.4 & 5 GHz bands are next to useless, and constantly cause devices to disconnect. Abysmal range on both bands, largely due to the subpar internal antennae. My advice to anyone considering purchasing this modem: DON'T.
