Pros and cons

Pros

The listed mix of 10 Gbps and 2.5 Gbps ports suits a home network with multi-gig internet or wired devices.
Tri-band Wi-Fi 7 and stated MLO support offer newer wireless features for compatible devices.
VPN client and server support can route home-device traffic through a remote VPN without installing software on each device, according to the listing.
Customer feedback describes setup as easy, which may help buyers who prefer app-guided configuration.

Cons

Wireless speed, range, and connectivity experiences are mixed in customer feedback, so the advertised performance should not be assumed in every home.
Some customer feedback raises reliability concerns, including reports of routers failing within weeks. This is a reported concern, not an established failure rate.

What to know before buying

Customer feedback is divided on speed, range, bandwidth, and ability to connect multiple devices. Consider these experiences alongside your floor plan, client-device compatibility, and internet plan.

Listing details to confirm

The listed 9.7 gigabits_per_second is a combined headline data rate, while the listing separately states up to 5,765 Mbps on 6 GHz, 2,882 Mbps on 5 GHz, and 1,032 Mbps on 2.4 GHz. These are manufacturer claims, not guaranteed device speeds. The stated coverage of up to 2,600 sq. ft. and support for up to 120 devices are also claims that depend on the home and network conditions.

Customer feedback highlights easy setup and appreciation for the router's features, including separate passcodes for different bands. Reports about speed, range, bandwidth, and connecting multiple devices are mixed, while some customers describe failures within weeks. For buyers considering the listed Wi-Fi 7, multi-gigabit ports, and up-to-2,600-square-foot coverage, those varied experiences mean advertised capabilities should not be treated as guaranteed performance or reliability. The overall ratings distribution includes many five-star ratings but also a notable one-star share, so it is not uniformly positive.

Positive themes

Customers describe setup as easy and appreciate the feature set, including separate passcodes for different bands.

Negative themes

Some customers report the router failing within weeks of use.

Mixed feedback

Customer accounts vary on speed, range, bandwidth, and whether multiple devices connect successfully.
