Best user interface Product is easy to set up POE ports UniFi environment 10gig SFP and WAN 2.5 gbs wan
* 2 10Gb SFP+ ports. Mentioned in the product description, but worth repeating. * Easy to get up and running for relatively-simple setups * Can have multiple WAN connections, configured either as failover or sharing bandwidth between them. More importantly, setting this up is dead simple. * Can send syslogs to external collector, if that's your jam * Configurable via web GUI, SSH, or direct console connection. * All of the settings are configurable via any of the three methods -- no need to do a console connection for things that are "too advanced" for the GUI.

I bought this on sale, on a whim, after reading so much positive chatter. I thought the Netgear R7000 was plenty for my purposes; this thing changed my perspective. A standard expensive "router" is actually three things at once: a router, a switch, and a wireless access point. When one device serves all these purposes. a problem with one of them can create a problem for all of them. Resetting your Wi-Fi disrupts the entire network. A heavy CPU demand by one service will slow down the other services. Splitting them in three allows each device to be devoted to its own task. The ER-4 routes and that is all; the R7000 is now an access point and a lot faster and more reliable than previously; a Cisco SG112-24 switch deals with the LAN traffic; and also a raspberry pi is running a pi-hole DHCP server. Everything works much faster and more reliably than before. Troubleshooting no longer holds the entire network hostage. This router is extremely fast, highly customizable (including robust CLI support if you desire), and relatively user-friendly. Bufferbloat is essentially gone. My network is a well-oiled machine. If you use the internet like most of us do, this thing is worth it.
