Works as expected but no more powerful than any other router I have had.

I did have to read about how to use the USB storage on the network, but it works as expected

Works as expected, and its flashed with tomato firmware

The router works as expected with the exception that the power supply that came with it didn't work and I had to buy a universal power supply to make it work.

Reviews around feature (4.46 of 5)
-
Guest networks for both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands is just one of many great features of Asus' native firmware
-
But Comcast is annoying as sometimes I get 75 - 100Mbps, and others I get up to 200
-
This router is a bit expensive, but I have used these in three different places and they always have very reliable signal with a good range and useful features
-
The VPN is one of the most useful features of this router
-
I am told it has lots of useful features too, but I've not yet had cause to use them

Reviews around setup (4.33 of 5)
-
Easy setup, great range and no disconnects after 3 weeks of use.
-
Decent router, although the forced 'quick setup' is rather aggravating
-
Reasonably easy setup, but getting the wireless to communicate with client systems is difficult.
-
Once setup it was impossible to get back into the router to do anything, even the factory reset to defaults would not work consistently
-
That was the most difficult setup I ever encountered for a router.

Reviews around work (4.29 of 5)
-
This worked really super awesomely well, exactly as everyone describes....until it ground slowly, imperceptibly at first, down to molasses speed and then stopped working altogether.
-
first one didn't work right replacement works fine better range than ISP's wireless router by about 300 feetI swapped out one of the antennas with a 25 foot extension cable and attached the antenna to that cable and it is mounted on my roof
-
Works real good when its working but fails horribly when you need it most. firmware is updated when available.
-
...in other words, it sometimes displayed failure on one computer while working on another, and vice versa.
-
great deal for a refurbished perfect working condition router

The interface for setup is a little messy but not to bad to navigate.

Slow, buffering, and not even remotely good as it was a month prior.

Works as it should as a router for the shop, ran 250ft of CAT6 from the house, set it up to broadcast as it's own

Reviews around doe (2.11 of 5)
-
Firmware does need to be updated upon arrival but that's not too bad
-
It does work, does have pretty easy setup, but has terribly slow throughput making fast Ethernet connections miserable
-
Bought this to provide 5Ghz and wider coverage in my home after a trusty D-Link had passed on
-
I would find a more powerful router.....this one does not work.
-
I will improve my rating if this does not become an issue for me.

Reviews around customer service (2.09 of 5)
-
I DO NOT recommend ANY Asus router products and I will not be buying their products in the future due to terrible quality and customer service.
-
Their Customer Service (in India) is deplorable: when I tried to explain that I can't wait for more than a week to ship the broken router and wait for them to ship the new one, their Customer Service transferred me without saying anything to an automatic survey!
-
Customer service was very rude and disrespectful and didn't do a very good job of defending/representing their product and was content with letting Amazon eat the costs of shipping their products without understanding why it didn't work.

good i like it
-
So easy to set up, bulletproof firmware, good range, never flakes, no hardware issues (like the dreaded bad switch port), and on and on.

Mine also lacks the ez switch (despite it being touted on the box) and only has the WAN button

I could deal with the twice-a-week hard-reset of the router (frustrating, but ok), but the steady decline in reliability and connections is just not acceptable
