REVIEW – When I reviewed my first network device from Engenius, I became a fan. I fell in love with the build quality, the performance, their mobile app, and their cloud dashboard. While there is no way my robust home network could ever utilize the extensive features and capabilities of the equipment, I created a […]

REVIEW – You may have gotten a WiFi router from your internet service provider. For a simple setup with a computer or two and a couple phones that might be enough. If you want to go beyond the basics or add a lot of devices to your network, you’re going to want to get your
REVIEW – As many of our readers already know, I am a big network geek and my home network infrastructure is a great example of my geekiness. Not too long ago, I reviewed the Firewalla Gold Plus and I was quite happy that it allowed me to monitor many aspects of my network in real-time

REVIEW – I’d ask if this had ever happened to you, but odds are very good it has. You arrive at that great vacation destination – you know, the one with the $50 per day resort fee which includes “free” wifi – only to learn that you are limited to 2 devices connected at a
REVIEW – As an IT nerd, I work hard to ensure the best and strongest wireless signal is available everywhere around my home. For the past year, I have been working on remodeling my basement, and I have been noticing that the wireless signal is quite weak. I decided to run an ethernet cable from

REVIEW – Recently my wife and I have been taking a sign language class and I noticed some lag during Zoom meetings. My house is filled with WiFi goodness and I have a 200Gb connection so I thought my router might be causing the bottleneck. Will the Gryphon AX Tri-Band Mesh router alleviate the issue?

REVIEW – If you’re like me, you’ve endured years (if not decades) of slow or spotty wireless connections, especially if you have a multi-level home or an apartment with many neighbors using WiFi. In theory, the Meshforce M7 Tri-Band Whole Home Mesh WiFi System should offer better speeds and more reliable connections over a much

REVIEW – Open WiFi is a beautiful thing. When traveling, you no longer have to carry an ethernet cable and be tethered to the desk in the hotel room. Just about every hotel offers free WiFi so you can plop on the marginally comfortable bed or likely uncomfortable couch and surf away. But today, you

REVIEW – Getting solid wifi speeds throughout my split-level house has been an ongoing struggle for years. I’ve tried multiple mesh routers (which all had ongoing connectivity issues) and powerline bridges (which also had issues due to our old wiring), before settling on a high-powered single router that I currently use. It’s stable, but speeds

REVIEW – Over the years I have tried some of those wifi repeater products to boost the wifi signal in the dead spots in our house. I was never really satisfied with the spotty results, and many of them require that you give it an SSID that is different than your main SSID. And sometimes

REVIEW – Internet access. It’s become ubiquitous. We need it for so many things in our lives – work, education, entertainment, hobbies, connecting with family and friends, etc. Although a hard-wired connection is usually going to be faster and more reliable, so many of our devices are portable, or in a location where it’s hard

REVIEW – WiFi is everywhere these days. Wherever you are you’re being bombarded with WiFi signals. However ironically one of the big issues most people have is coverage in their own homes. It appears because of the size and construction of houses, there are often areas where the WiFi from a single WiFi router won’t

MINI REVIEW – Firstly let me clarify, this is not a “Spitz Mini” review, it’s a Spitz “mini review”. That being said, just like all the GL.iNet range of products this is small, not your normal size router. Why a mini review? Because unlike a normal router, there’s a heap of different factors that will

REVIEW – For some reason, in a very short time I’ve gone from zero travel routers to three travel routers. If you follow through my reviews, I initially purchased the TP-Link TL-WR802n, then to add further functionality I discovered the GL-iNet GL-300N-V2 and after reading my review, GL.iNet was kind enough to send me their
