Connectivity options include three 2.5 GbE LAN ports, one 10 GbE SFP+ WAN port, and one 2.5 GbE WAN port with PoE, making it suitable for demanding internet connections and multiple wired devices. The router also includes a 0.96" display, Bluetooth, and a microSDXC card reader, all managed via a mobile app for Android and iOS.
Match the router's capabilities to your home's square footage and your ISP's internet speed. For homes over 2500 sq ft or with multiple floors, mesh systems are far superior to single high-powered routers. Available from $279.
Routers have an extremely low cost of ownership, drawing minimal continuous power. There are no consumables, and hardware generally lasts until technological obsolescence requires an upgrade.
Common Failure Modes
Hardware failures are rare; usually, issues stem from firmware glitches, overheating, or power surge damage. Most units are simply replaced rather than repaired when they fail.
