    "...It's powerful and stable enough for a business environment but the price point makes it appropriate for purchase and use in a home environment...." Read more

    "...Top level performance and ease of use, and high reliability, at reasonable, or in the case of the ERL-3, very low, prices." Read more

    "..."out there" and never disconnects or hangs, and NEVER crashes the OS or hardware -- that was the crux of my frustration with the old linksys..." Read more

    "...The performance of this router has been stellar...." Read more

    141 customers mention131 positive10 negative

    Customers like the performance of the router. They say it performs perfectly for their needs, is very powerful, and rock solid. The fail-over is working great, and the router handles VLANs very well. It chugs along with no issues, and has lots of control and power.

    "VERY COOL HARDWARE. Does take some time to learn it, but there is VERY good documentation out there to find...." Read more

    74 customers mention65 positive9 negative

    Customers like the speed of the router. For example,they mention it has a HW chip that accelerates processing, resulting in a nice fast and stable network.

    "...The speed so far has been great. I did one speed test today, and I got more than the full bandwidth of my faster connection coming through...." Read more

    "...features hardware offloading for some types of routing - making it even faster and keeping CPU loads quite low in my application*..." Read more

    "...: This is, as everyone else has been saying, an extremely powerful/fast router. Do not let its small size (and price tag) fool you...." Read more

    "...I needed a basic, robust gigabit router that is fast and reliable. This EdgeRouter definitely meets those requirements...." Read more

    60 customers mention60 positive0 negative

    Customers appreciate the value of the router. They mention that it offers a lot of features for a budget-priced product, and is a great value for 10 Gb/s networking.

    "...and stable enough for a business environment but the price point makes it appropriate for purchase and use in a home environment...." Read more

    "...Top level performance and ease of use, and high reliability, at reasonable, or in the case of the ERL-3, very low, prices." Read more

    "...Summary: More RAM than ER-X, cheaper than ER-5, TONS and tons of official and community documentation and examples for configuration." Read more

    53 customers mention37 positive16 negative

    Customers are mixed about the ease of use of the networking router. Some mention that the GUI is easy to use, while others say that it is a bit more complex than your average home all-in-one consumer router. The UI is not bad, but it could be better, and some customers say that the UI does not support OpenVPN configuration.

    "...Here's a complete GUI to ALL device settings, with at least a bit of guidance in the form of tool tips as to how to set things...." Read more

    "...The web interface is nice, but there may be features that you want that can only - or are best - configured from the command line..." Read more

    "...Yes, the interface overall is still a bit more complex than your average home all-in-one consumer router, but with that complexity comes more..." Read more

    "...Top level performance and ease of use, and high reliability, at reasonable, or in the case of the ERL-3, very low, prices." Read more

    24 customers mention22 positive2 negative

    Customers like the versatility of the networking router. For example, they say it's easy to set up and has a lot of features. Some say it works flawlessly and has lots of room for functionality. Overall, customers are happy with the versatility and functionality of the product.

    "...There are so many options and the flexibility that this router provides will amaze you.What I don't like:None...." Read more

    "...I am still exploring al the power this router has, but it is loaded with features...." Read more

    "...It makes them very versatile. I do wish they were a little more flexible like PFSense, but for the price and form factor you can't beat it." Read more

    18 customers mention15 positive3 negative

    Customers like the configuration of the networking router. They mention that it is highly configurable, with detailed options. The amount of customization on this thing is amazing, and it is easy or as complicated as you want it.

    "...Highly configurable* SSH key support* 3rd party Wireguard VPN support allows for a very secure and fast VPN connection..." Read more

    "...also allows easy configuration of DHCP services and has configuration options too numerous to detail here...." Read more

    "Highly Configurable! Make sure you update this router ASAP, like right when it's out of the box...." Read more

    "...basically running an embedded version of Linux, so configuration options are nearly limitless...." Read more

    101 customers mention56 positive45 negative

    Customers are mixed about the ease of installation of the networking router. Some mention that it was a breeze, while others say that it's a bit difficult to configure. They mention that the router allows easy configuration of DHCP services, and VLANs can be setup, but that it can be somewhat complex for the average user. That said, some say that the online instruction manual is absolutely required and still lacks the specifics to get it up and running.

    "...That was great.Getting to that point was super easy and hassle free...." Read more

    "...It takes some configuration - probably an hour so initially, though I could do it much faster now that I've done it once - and some planning about..." Read more

    "...Setup was a breeze barring two small issues...." Read more

    Pro grade gear at consumer prices, easy to set up to for dual-wan
    5 Stars
    Pro grade gear at consumer prices, easy to set up to for dual-wan
    Wow! Rarely am I this impressed.I bought this for one and only one reason: my primary Internet provider has ridiculously low data caps on our plan, and keep forcing us to "upgrade" to higher speeds (so that we can blow through the cap even faster!). So I recently signed up for a secondary, slower connection with no caps, for the things like backups that require lots of data, but don't need the speed.This led me to the question of how I could manage two internet connections coming into the house in an automated way. Lo and behold, searching turned up that there is a whole class of router devices that have a "dual WAN" feature, meaning they can manage two (or more) internet connections at once.I did a lot of research on the various brands, and almost went with a device from a very popular name brand. However, reading the reviews on these "consumer grade" devices was a real turn off: flaky, cheap hardware seemed par for the course, unless you're willing to pay hundreds for something that's more of a "professional" type device.I hate wasting my time on flaky stuff, so I kept searching. I almost ended up paying hundreds more for a top-shelf (in terms of price) device that could do what I wanted.Then in some search I ran across this. The reviews were mostly stellar, though people were warning that this is "not easy" to set up.I have a computer science background, but not in networking. I also hate wasting time on complex configurations. So I was concerned that it could be a big time suck. But given the low cost and good reviews, I took a gamble.I'm so glad that I did!The device arrived - it is compact, clean looking, and sturdy. No cheap plastic. I fired it up, and within just 10 minutes had my first internet connection running through the device to the residence. I then tried it with the second, and it only took another 10 minutes to get that one working.Then I set out to combine them together into a "load balancing" configuration, where internet traffic to/from our place is split between the two connections.Maybe this used to be a pain years ago, but now Ubiquiti has built-in "wizards" that take you through common configurations like this, step by step. I followed the wizard, and within another 15-20 minutes, I had a full "load balanced" configuration running. That was great.Getting to that point was super easy and hassle free. This would be enough for most users, and can be done by wizards alone.The next step was to configure it so that certain traffic (such as backups) only go through one of the connections, but not the one with the data cap. I was concerned that this might be complicated, because it wasn't part of the wizard.However, some searches at their forum revealed a step-by-step post showing how to do this at the command line. While I've done tons of command line stuff, these days I don't like learning whole new command sets unless I have to.So I figured out that I could do everything they described in the posts through a little-described but powerful feature of the GUI: The "Config Tree". Here's a complete GUI to ALL device settings, with at least a bit of guidance in the form of tool tips as to how to set things.Using the instructions provided in the forum posts for the command line, I was able to browse through the Config Tree to find the same settings, and to set those as described. Then I rebooted....And it was working perfectly! I started a backup and all the traffic was going through the unlimited internet connection. Everything else was still being load-balanced between the two.I really like the gui - especially the network charts and analyses that show how much data is going where. You can even drill down into the specifics of which devices on the network are using what data - and from what sources. A great feature for making sure we don't go over the caps with our one provider.The speed so far has been great. I did one speed test today, and I got more than the full bandwidth of my faster connection coming through. It's a 150mbp/second connection, and according to speediest, it was running at over 160 to my system. The test system in question was connected to the router via a wired cat6 ethernet cable via the switch.Based on several comments in other reviews, I was worried that enabling some more complex configuration features might peg the CPU, but so far, it has remained low - usually below 20%.I haven't seen any signs of glitches; it's been rock solid so far.The only caveat is that this is a router, not a switch. What that means is that if you have multiple devices you want on the same network, you need a separate device with switching to connect them all. I use a professional grade switch I already had, but it would work just fine to use a home wifi router plugged into this, to provide the switching functions to both wired and wireless clients. I have my own wireless (Airport) base station attached to my switch to provide wireless to the mobile devices, and it works without a hitch.For this low price, to have such a positive experience out of the box, this earns my rare five star review. It's pro grade gear at consumer prices.
