Review: Great, but not for VPN. - Primarily, bought it to use with the ExpressVPN firmware. However, it doesn't deliver high speeds while connected to the VPN. Supposed to get 500Mbps I only get 150Mbps while connected to the smart location using the Lightway - UDP protocol tested on my PC with ethernet cable. This is because it lacks of having an AES-NI processor chip which boosts VPN connections. ExpressVPN support suggested to get one of the following routers: Asus RT-AC86U (AC2900 only), RT-AX88U, RT-AX92U, GT-AC5300, GT-AX11000 as they all include the AES-NI processor chip. Otherwise fast router if you don't use VPN. Another downside is that WiFi connection is weak. If connected far away, you may lose speed, but is fast when nearby. To get the highest speed, always connect devices via ethernet cable. Great for 4k streaming, online gaming, high downloads.
Review: I bought 2 of these, one for myself and one for a family member. We're experiencing solid WiFi where before we both had flaky WiFi. There's lots of good configuration options and features. For the price I think they could have gone a little further with those but it's not holding us back from normal use.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review
*by R***R on 14 December 2019*

With so many options listed on Amazon, I was confused which to buy. But decided to go for this one and it turned out to be exactly the right one I was looking for ! Brand new, Middle East version. Price was significantly lower than in Carrefour or Sharad DG! Coming to router - I bought this as it was recommended by ExpressVPN. It was easy to download and flash the router. Although it limits a lot of the default features - you get 2.4 & 5 GHz bands at desired country server. Split tune long enables certain devices to have no VPN and rest to have selected VPN. The range is weak though - network doesn’t go beyond 2 thick walls.
