Reviews around route (1.42 of 5)

  • I was replacing an existing router in order to upgrade to a 1Gbps WAN port and 5GHz wireless (a TP-Link product which did implement static routes correctly)
  • My main complaint is that it does not set static routes correctly
  • I decided to live with this issue since I could get around it by manually adding the static routes I need to individual computers on my network (which works for my particular layout).There's also not an easy way to mount this router on a wall (something I would have liked, but can live without).Now to the "good"
  • Long story short, I had 2 extra static routes setup which worked fine in the old router, but the new router did not re-route the traffic correctly
  • I also verified I had the latest firmware loaded (latest firmware was already on the router when I received it; which I verified on the product support/download website).Looking through previous reviews (as of now, March 2018) there are no questions/answers or reviews mentioning static routes, so I assume that not many people do not need this feature (i.e. you can probably ignore this gripe if you don't know what a static route is or know you don't need this router to provide this feature)
