Tenda AC1200 Smart WiFi Router, High Speed Dual Band Wireless Internet Router with Smart APP, 4 x 100 Mbps Fast Ethernet Ports, Supports Guest WiFi, Access Point Mode, IPv6 and Parental Controls(AC6)

I love this thing. Inexpensive, configurable, quick set-up and not too smart. Quick to set-up with app, and fairly configurable with the app, but the online settings are much broader. When I mean it's not too smart, it's because I have a mesh system in my house that decides on it's own whether or not to connect via 2.4 or 5 ghz. This sends out 2 different signals so I can ensure I'm only connecting to the 5GHZ. I am using this as an access point for remote controlling my Behringer XR18 mixer, in the online settings I have the option to bind the MAC address to the IP, this is great that I can reserve that IP address that way because the software controlling the device can find it easier with a static address vs DHCP.

This is a great buy for the price the range works very well, the app makes it easy to manage who is connected or devices. Security features allow you to share or maintain private. The convenience to be able to test speed should you see delays. You can restart from your app. Adds extension to your WiFi.! Awesome to be able and controls download speeds. Happy with product and easy to use with providing many features to improve your WiFi connectivity.

I won't even lie. This router worked great for me - strong signal, fairly insane speeds; I was getting 75mbps down (5GHz channel) and I'm pretty sure I only have a 30mbps Comcast plan. Good admin interface, everything checks out, and the price sure was right.But some vulnerability/backdoor (specifically something IPV6-related, as I noticed lots of strange traffic through that, and I normally never used ipv6 previously) got my ENTIRE house full of computers infected with a Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) related malware, where the attacker remotely modified my Windows installation to be set up as an Active Directory client, as if my PC thought it was on a corporate network, beholden to the IT administration's control. So my group policies almost all set themselves to "Managed", and I couldn't change them myself. It also spread itself to any new USB media I made with windows' official Media Creation Tool, I believe through auto-generated malicious autorun.inf's under invalid pathnames, like D:\System Volume Information\:\:autorun.inf (windows doesn't allow colons in pathnames), among many other weird and not-easily-detectable signs of tampering in my machine. Before I even noticed something was amiss, it had taken control of all the other PCs in the house including my girlfriend's. Even after a full drive wipe on any given computer, the malicious presence remained in the background.Just google "Tenda vulnerability", specifically Loki Labs' article "Tenda, is this a bad design or a backdoor?" to see what I'm talking about. Also read up on WMI malware, such as the recent Astaroth malware which I think might've been part of the type of virus I acquired, and how notorious and ancient it is as a method to compromise computers remotely. If you buy+use this router for a few days it's likely you'll even pick up a remote attacker on your network and not be able to notice it, except for some innocent-looking COM Surrogate Provider, rundll.32, Font Caching etc. (the list goes on and on) processes that blend in entirely with the operating system, because they are built-in to it. You'd be surprised just how insidious this type of infection can be, especially if you try to remove it without locking down your home network security impeccably before starting the reinstalls and everything.I've been tinkering with computers since I was almost a baby; develop software for a living and I've never seen anything quite like this until now. I'm still trying to get rid of it completely, after 2+ weeks of late nights and headaches, thinking I might've vanquished it this time only to find another subtle but unmistakable sign of infection. I've obviously ripped this router out and am preparing to return it, using my old wireless-N router for the moment, but even still this stupid attack seems to persist on all my computers, even on Ubuntu/linux (!!!), as I believe it got access to some of my laptops' UEFI firmware somewhere along the way... it's terrible, trust me, just don't mess with the Chinese brands if you value your time and privacy. I never cared either until this incident but you can bet your butt I have learned my lesson, firmly.

The router setup has a little trick you need know, Once you get your ethernet cable connected from the modem wan to the router wan port we found you had to have a computer or another wireless devise in the search for network mode and then hit the router reset button on the back of the router for a long hold then release and wait for the two to "find each other " Absolutely NO customer service exist at all so good luck if you call no one picked up for us during regular business hours. After all devises had the correct password typed in they all connected and worked as expected. We never could get another amazon router to connect at all. this one at a low price worked at least~!

Absolutely, love this thing.It works flawlessly in my shop which is a metal building?It's insulated and finished inside.

sure this will be great
