Does exactly as it says on the box
Bought this router as a temp as contract ended with last provider.Registered my new sim, popped it into my phone for a few mins then it went into the router.I had WiFi the minute the sim registration completed.Setting up is so very simple. The sticker on the back was a bit hard to see but that’s down to my sight more than anything else.I was able to change names and password in next to no time and my devices connected seamlessly.The router itself seems quite sturdy and very lightweight but that doesn’t seem to affect the performance. I get full coverage of my flat and the speeds aren’t as great as a hotspot from my phone but using the antenna provided I was still getting over 100Mbps. I’ve only streamed for a few hours but there has been no buffering or any lagging. For the price paid, this has exceeded my expectations and could possibly become a permanent router if my experience so far is anything to go by.

AX5400 BOUGHT TO REPLACE POOR VIRGIN HUB 4
I bought the AX5400 (AX73) because our Virgin hub 4 was terrible for wifi and because this looked a mean piece of kit with all it's antennas!We just switched the Virgin hub into "modem mode" and connected one cat8 network cable from it into the new AX5400. (Any cat5, cat6, etc cable is fine)Turned it on, logged into it, and it basically set itself up! VERY easy to get going.I now have wifi coverage across the entire house, which is a 4bed terrace with an extension.Before, we would lose all wifi in the furthest upstairs rooms and the extension so this is a significant improvement.We have a LOT of devices on our wifi, mamy phones, tablets, games consoles and amazon echo dots and all these are working flawlessly and with minimal effort.The AX5400 is definately the model to go for, don't bother with the lower models on this listing - it's definately worth paying that little extra to get this top model.It's very well ventilated and the lower models people complain get too hot or fail. There's no concerns with this one. I would recommend periodically wiping it for dust though because there are a LOT of tiny vent holes that look like they'd be more than happy to fill up with dust. But i'm quite happy to wipe it over from time to time.My speedtest results were pleasing.I went from 240-500MB/sec to results of upto 740MB/sec checked over a lan cabled computer on our 500MB/sec Virgin Fibre line so this was definately an improvement.Virgin hubs are terrible, they drop wifi connections, have pauses and lag delays when many devices are connected, and the range is terrible. The AX5400 is an easy solution. Definately consider one!

Pretty good
I bought this as a cheap and easy way to extend my network to my upstairs pc and have its own wireless connection so I could play VR games. Works flawlessly and also has even given me better coverage downstairs. Build quity is what you would expect, perfectly fine and looks decent. Only reason I give it 4 stars is because I can't power the wireless through the USB port in the PC and have to use a wall socket. I get good enough wireless speeds and my wired speeds are perfect.

A must if portability and reliable connection to public wifi is essential.
This is one of the more significant purchases that I have made to assist me whilst travelling. Its abilities to tie all your devices onto one network as you would have at home has simplified things enormously. Its portability especially when connected to a power bank has made camping trips and using devices on guest wifi a breeze. You are also able to install your VPN onto it, so security can be built in and automatic. Initially the option wasn't available, but if you connect it to your home wifi, eventually a firmware update will be offered and it changes the feature set of the router entirely. It is probably the most versatile router I have owned, including my Eero at home. To illustrate how good it is, I arrived at a Holiday Park in Italy where signal was particularly weak. So much so where we were placed you couldn't sign into the network. I moved the router to where the signal was stronger and using the Tether app (the companion app for the device) I signed into the network, I then moved the router back to where I was staying and the router remained connected to the network. As I write I'm connected to the router via 5 devices, two laptops, two iPhones and an Alexa Speaker, all working with satisfactory speeds. It's removed the frustration. The perfect combination would be this router paired with a 20000mah power bank, which potentially will run the power bank for 24 hours rather that the 10-12hrs that my 10000mah power bank is achieving at the moment. I recommend this product without hesitation.

So sleek my wife doesn't mind it on display!
Couldn't be happier with this device!As an IT Manager I was really pleased with the functionality of the advanced features as well as the optional extras. For non-IT users please understand that the optional extras are not required!It's a gorgeous unit, a mix of gloss and matt black, 4 aerieals that aren't oversized to look like they do more than they're actually doing. The power is a standard plug, no power brick inbetween the unit and the plug socket. The dept of the router means it fits on a nice slim table leaving room for other bits - picture to follow and will edit this bit out once uploaded.Setup is easy and very well guided, without intimidation, although it will try to get you to start a trial for optional extras you don't need, but they are good.I would recommend setting up the mobile app and adding the device so you can manage, if needed, without a computer. I would say it's almost on par with the Netgear Nighthawk app.Wifi range, strength and device distribution is incredible, down to being WIFI6, and I can't wait to renew my EoP devices to get the best out of the Ethernet ports.
