It’s been about three years since Ubiquiti released the dual-band AmpliFi HD WiFi system and the public immediately fell in love with that tiny box and its circular display (while the additional mesh nodes were a bit of a hit and miss), but the design wasn’t the only great thing about this product, as Ubiquiti … Read more

The Synology RT2600ac is the second wireless router released by the widely popular NAS (network Attached Storage) manufacturer and the successor to the RT1900ac, which was the first incursion into the router market from the Taiwanese company and it proved to be successful since Synology decided that it’s worth diversifying its product line and enforce … Read more
The Linksys WRT3200ACM is among the two most powerful wireless routers from the Linksys WRT series (along with the WRT32X) and a successor to one of the most popular AC1900 router, the WRT1900ACS. As the name suggests, the WRT3200ACM is an AC3200 device, but this may be misleading for some, because we are not dealing … Read more
