Pros and cons

According to our router expert

This router has 3 separate WiFi connections, so you always have a stable WiFi network for all your devices.
Combine the router with a Linksys RE7000 and set up 1 WiFi network with coverage throughout the house.
This router supports MU-MIMO, which ensures a more stable wireless connection.
This router only supports WiFi 5, so your wireless internet is less stable than with WiFi 6 if you're online with many devices at the same time.
Depending on the size of your house, this router offers coverage on 1 or 2 floors. Choose multi-room WiFi for WiFi throughout your home.

Excellent router

Powerful
Simple quick setup
Manageable via app from smartphone
No

Powerful router that is easy to install. Installation within half an hour and easy to manage from your mobile via an intuitive app. Gives me WiFi coverage throughout the house and excels in performance with heavy media usage by multiple simultaneous users (gaming and streaming media). A guest network is set up at the push of a button and this router also has parental control. Nice router in a household with teenagers and many guests over the floor.

Review is 8,4 out of 10.

Very satisfied with my purchase.

Very fast internet
Connect to modem and you're off
I don't need anymore
Maybe limited range

The router was really easy to set up. You put the plug in the socket, you connect it to the modem and there you go. If you are close to the router and you surf the internet wirelessly, you really have very fast internet.

The smart TV is connected to it, the PC, smartphones and tablet and all this without any problem. You can easily stream from your smartphone to your TV (we have connected a Goole Chromecast for best results) and just watch live. We noticed that the image quality also depended on the app with which we watch and stream TV. The best is the Yelo Play app from Telenet. What a picture quality, really beautiful. And while streaming a speed test, it came to 320Mpbs. Really fast!

The range of the router is up to +-10m, but you should not go much further, especially not with a wall in between. Of course you can always purchase stronger routers with more antennas. But for a smaller home where everything is close by, this router gives you really solid material for this price.

A top device that you won't regret

Quick installation
Reach throughout the house. Attic is a bit weak
Wirelessly copying data over network is slightly faster than my Linksys from 5 years ago.
I had hoped that by now there would be a good content filter on it. You cannot filter by keywords. Block only certain websites and shut down the internet after certain times

I actually always use Linksys because it is a reliable router that is nice and fast. Great firewall has one never has hickups. Optimal Wi-Fi speeds!
