Holy crap...great router but NOT for the newbie.
I thought I understood home networking, but this router proved I'm but a babe in the woods. What I say now is that I understand typical consumer router options from D-Link, TP-Link, Netgear, etc. but I have really had to make this old brain work hard to understand what I needed to configure this router. Keep in mind, Ubiquiti products have generally been produced for commercial applications and administered by network professionals. This is commercial-grade product with a few consumer-friendly features added, but you still really need to know what the crap you are doing. I'm not kidding. If you have only a basic understanding of DHCP, port forwarding, AP and bridging, DNS, and NAT like I did, you will really struggle setting this router up. I thought I would simply be able to make copies of all my old D-Link router settings and copy them over to the new X-SFP but it was not even close. Ubiquiti offers a bunch of guides and forums, but I found that most of them are geared toward someone who has more knowledge than an average home user. This makes sense because an average home user is not going to be bothering with VPNs, multiple LANs, POE equipment and exotic networking scenarios. However, once you discover this whole other world that's available, and you want a better router, you quickly realize that you don't know jack about how to do all this. I have Gb Uverse and I wanted to remove my old wifi router and use this X-SFP router and a separate wifi router as AP. It literally took me DAYS trying to figure out exactly how to configure this successfully. I have a Plex server and needed to open and forward ports, create static and dynamic DHCP assignments, etc. I also had to figure out the right way to use OpenDNS name servers. I thought I had it correctly configured but then it would lose connectivity and I could not figure out what was wrong. I finally wiped everything and started over following some YouTube tutorials and got everything working. HINT: Make sure you save your configuration often, it will save you tons of time if accidentally screw something up. HINT 2: Keep it physically accessible at the beginning. For some stupid reason, Ubiquiti only allows you to use one ethernet port to do the initial connection and setup. That same port then becomes your Internet port, and you move the network cable to a different port to continue administering it. So if you have to do a factory reset and you have had your Internet connected, you will need to physically move the cable back to the "Internet" port and go from there. Since my router is in the basement it was a pain in the butt to make a lot of changes like that. Note: every port is completely configurable to act in any capacity (LAN vs WAN, for example), but not in default state. HINT 3: You must manually enable hardware offloading to allow Gb speeds. This is disabled by default. I'm still tweaking things but slowly. I look forward to getting to know this router, but it's taking some effort. ... show more

Great Router
Not for beginners with little patience. Having used Cisco and FortiNet. All for work. So I have a Linksys LRT2x4 for my house and it just didn't allow enough configuration for my desire. I had several UAPs and just bought a 8 port POE Ubiquiti switch and was very happy with the ease of use and low price for my home setup. Bought this router and found it to be a great little device. Was very easy to update the firmware and get it running. The wizards are easy to use but the syntax is different from others so it took me a little reading to understand what the device wanted to do. Once running, I had my network configured with VLANs for wireless guests and secure network for my home equipment with proper ACL (firewall) settings for access between networks for printers etc. Remote management is not wizard-based (as of this review) and it took a forum search to find the suggested way of enabling it for your setup. Easy to do, once I found the method they want to be used. Throughput is near GB speeds. The router is handling the traffic very well. My Linksys router often had issues or delays while I was accessing my Armcrest NVR. With this router, the load time is noticeably faster and HD video is clear instantly. (no real buffering noticed like from Linksys) If you want to get this router or any Ubiquiti products, I would point you to a YouTube channel, Crosstalk Solutions. He does a very good run down of several products (this router as well) and how they are used/configured. Only weakness (in terms of configuring) I would note is the Remote VPN access. I am surprised a wizard or better configuration page doesn't exist. I'm sure it will come out, but not as of this review. Very impressed. I will buy a couple more to use in my work locations to see if they can handle networks of 100 and 500 stations. However for home use, this is a fantastic buy. ... show more

Fast, allows MANY options, but I do wish I could use the Unifi Controller for setup
I use this for my home network as a firewall and managed router/switch. According to what I read, it is capable of doing HW offloading on some tasks. I can say that so far it's handled our household load well, with nary a CPU spike. It just chugs along, routing and such. Setup was a bit involved. This is not for the faint of heart, that's for darn sure. I am a software developer, so I have some ability to understand technical things, and I found it pretty easy to get what I needed done. Ubiquiti is know for support, and I was able to easily find plenty of how-tos and walkthroughs, and their forums are always full of people to help. For what it's worth, I am using the zone-policy firewall, which is a tad more involved to setup. After getting everything setup I was able to speedtest my wired devices up to 600Mbps+ (I am on Giga-fiber) and the CPU and memory barely moved. With my Time Capsule setup I seemed to peak at about 300Mbps, so it's definitely an improvement. I do wish I would have gone with the USG and maybe the US-8-150W as a combo, as I later added the AP-AC-PRO Wifi AP to replace my Time Capsules. This would have allowed me to use the Unifi Controller to control/monitor all my devices. The EdgeRouter doesn't plug into that control infrastructure, so you miss all the pretty graphs. Maybe down the road I'll re-design things with Unifi hardware. For now, the EdgeRouter seems to do what I need it to. ... show more

great value for power users - not for the casual SOHO user
LAST UPDATE, 6-1-20: The power cord to the wall-wart comes off the opposite side from the network ports. This is fine if you're going to mount it to a wall, but not so great on a desktop, benchtop, etc. UPDATE, 4-3-20: I needed to look at QoS so my other half couldn't saturate our pipe with video feeds when I was working. The EdgeRouter had everything I needed, and the Traffic Analysis feature made it easy to verify who the culprit was (out of 4 users). This is really sexy little box for the money. I haven't felt this satisfied with a computer or networking purchase in over a decade, fo' reelz. ;) UPDATE, 2-16-20: I was seeing terrible (250mS+) loaded latency on my new faster service. Big ratio between loaded and unloaded. So I learned about BufferBloat, and the specific, modern, Smart Queue Management strategies (in my case: Fair Queuing - FQ - with Controlled Delay -CoDel) which fix buffer bloat -- features not available on most commodity SOHO routers. This feature can be turned on in the ER-X router's GUI without digging into the CLI. A small amount of tuning of the two bandwidth numbers was required to achieve much lower latency without impacting my connection speeds. Implementing modern network traffic management tools like SQM or QoS is often quite fiddly, requiring more arcane knowledge than I have, and I do this stuff for a living. So it was a pleasant surprise to be able to turn it on and have it working properly in under five minutes. -------- original review: I knew Ubiquiti network hardware from the corporate world, they offer decent value for money. That said, this is a business product. It's vastly over-powered for a home broadband connection. If you're a power user who can benefit from being able to remotely access / VPN to your home network from afar, or you actually have a use case for Quality of Service / Traffic Shaping / SQM (gamer or a network TV perhaps) then $100 for this little gem is a very wise purchase. But you had best know what you are doing; Ubiquiti's product documentation consisted of a QR code leading to their web site. Not so much as a disk or even a pamphlet came in the box. I had better luck finding the config document I wanted with Google than using Ubiquiti's search on their own site. So if you need hand-holding when setting up networking stuff, buy something else. This is not a $39 Netgear "router" with woo-woo "True Diversity" antennas. This is an actual boundary router appliance, don't let the tiny form factor fool you. 15 years ago, a box with the same capabilities was a 1U rack mount device and cost $4,000. ... show more

Solid router (with tons of potential) at a great price
I bought this as the first piece of my all Ubiquiti network setup. I wanted to replace my ASUS all in one AC router because of constant restarts and inconsistent wifi performance. It was a good router, but it can't compare to my new system of dedicated router (this), switch, and access point. In the three months I've had my system, there has not been a single issue with internet speeds or connection, or with wifi performance. It is rock solid now and there haven't been any complaints from the family about the internet being down. This router just routes. It isn't encumbered by the need to be the AP as well. I do use the switch function on this however, and it is very configurable, pretty close to a managed switch. It is also capable of passive POE power, which I am not using currently. The SFP port can be configured as the WAN port if you need another port. This is all in a small, well built metal case. The one downside is that it's not the easiest to configure in this current age of consumer routers, but it's still not hard with the wizards and all of the information and support available online. If you are skilled or determined, there is so much configuration this router is capable of. If you get by the initial setup hurdle, the separated router and AP combo is a gamechanger for people like me. The wifi is no longer tied to wherever the router has to be. It can go in the most central or needed location in the house, and you can have more AP's if needed. This is the first step toward non-sucky internet. ... show more

Needs a LOT more time in the oven
I picked up one of these to play around with while waiting to get my hands on a new Juniper SRX300. Short version: unreliable, difficult to configure, and it went back in the box and it's in the cabinet in the garage. Long version: most of the more useful configuration types must be done from the Vyatta CLI. Now don't get me wrong, I'm an old school CLI jockey, so I'm not intimidated by the command line. But I draw the line when the CLI syntax is ham-fisted and brain dead. Configuring the firewall is a huge pain in the rear. Either you build a bunch of sets of rules, and apply them individually as inbound, outbound and local filters (also - it's little more jacked up iptables with slightly better syntax) OR, you can try their zone-based FW setup, which is equally ham-fisted in nature. Did I mention that the default policy action is "accept"? Not much in the way of security there.On every other FW product I've worked on in the past 20+ years in the industry, the default FW action is "drop". What this means is that when you've got 3 zones on your FW, like say "inside, outside and guest" you now have 9 distinct policy sets to create. This number grows very quickly too as you increase the number of zones (# zones squared). On "normal" zone-based FW products with that same set of zones, you'd probably configure 4 policy sets, possibly as few as 2, since normal FW would have an implicit drop policy in place. What else? IPsec VPN was terribly unreliable. On my SRX, I've got 2 VPN tunnels setup to places I do volunteer work. Nothing flashy - IKEv2 PSK tunnels with BGP between tunnel interfaces. The EdgeRouter could only manage to keep 1 tunnel up at a time. No rhyme or reason as to which tunnel it would drop, but it was a lock that within a few minutes of establishing its outbound tunnels that 1 tunnel would drop. Want to play around with IPv6? CLI time for you. Then there's the support. Ubiquiti's idea of support is an web forum. No SLA, No actual guarantee of any help of any sort. ... show more

Can give you gigabit and VPN
I loved this device. It doesn't look "serious" due to its small form factor, but it's really powerful. Through it I was able to get maximum speed of 950Mbit/s on local network and ~850Mbit/s in the internet (gigabit Xfinity plan). Never seen its CPU overloaded or RAM exhausted. It can run for months without a need of rebooting. With some advanced setup I was able to bring up a VPN for the specific devices in my network (by IP). The VPN speed was not impressive, but it's expected for this kind of devices. I was able to get up to 12Mbit/s via OpenVPN for one connection at CPU loading 25% (it has 4 cores, so one core was loaded at 100%). I'd speculate, that this router can handle up to 4 VPN connections at this speed without hitting the CPU cap. If you're looking for better speeds of VPN, this router is clearly not your choice. And if you know a device that can give at least 50Mbit/s over OpenVPN - let me know :) If you ever decide to buy this device, know this: 1. It's very flexible in terms of settings. 2. Most of the advanced settings have to be done via CLI, not via UI. This is a SOHO type device. If you're not familiar with the network devices setup, you will likely have hard times setting this one up. There is a lot of documentation in the Internet, though. ... show more

Software is lacking
I was disappointed. The hardware on this seems great, hence the 3 stars, but the software is missing basic features. There's no list of connected clients. The best you can do is see a list of leased IPs. The organization of features was clunky and disjointed. I know you can use the CLI but honestly, I'd rather just use OpnSense on an old nuc. I can use CLI there too and the non-CLI interface is worlds better and it's open source. I know ubiquiti has better software. Why don't they use in on this? Returned. ... show more
