The router delivers in all categories. Comes with different types of electrical plugs for different regions. The Bad : Expensive router, not wall-mountable, and requires 802.11ac to fully benefit it. The fastest 802.11n ac adapter available right now is only 867Mbps The Bottom Line : Recommended for people on 500Mbps fibre connection or slower (if you are only going to use it for wireless connectivity).
