What customers say
This gateway offers a simple initial setup, making it adequate for basic DSL needs right away. However, reliability is a major concern for users. The most common issue involves frequent overheating, which causes frustrating connection drops during heavy use like streaming or gaming. Many users report the device becomes unstable or fails after about a year and a half of operation. Additionally, its older Wireless N standard limits range and speed compared to newer technology. While the initial cost is low, these persistent stability problems significantly reduce its overall value for those needing consistent, uninterrupted internet service.
