Received the product and the instructions were spot-on perfect! This device has two (2) options to install it — Using their admin interface, or using WPS. I had to try both only to find out that the WPS method was the easiest although it didn’t quite let me choose what I wanted for my WiFi SSID (granted, I could go in and give it a new name, but this process wasn’t worth doing since the goal for my project was just to use the Ethernet port anyway.)
The signal strength is fantastic on this device! It only has one light in the front – It blinks red if it’s not connected, and steady green if it is. This makes it easy to spot if there’s a problem or not.
The initial connection time is a bit tricky at first as it took about 2 minutes to make the connection. I noticed that it would sometimes connect, then disconnect, then reconnect – A process that could take 2-3 minutes total – but would stay connected upon the reconnect.
The admin portal is very optionless and is really designed for the basic consumer in mind. There isn’t a lot of advanced options available that I could see, but to be honest it didn’t seem necessary anyway.
Overall, I’m NOT DISAPPOINTED with this purchase at all! It’s a great product and has great instructions included. When using WiFi 6 connections, I’d highly recommend using the WPS option for a bit more simplicity. This was the secondary option listed in their guide and it seemed to work like a charm!
