The initial setup always goes fine, and the configuration features are ok. It provides easy site-to-site and client-to gateway VPN.

Si è guastato dopo 5 anni di funzionamento perfetto, e hanno spedito con corriere il ricambio, dopo la verifica del malfunzionamento. Ottimo. Ricomprato diversi prodotti Linksys, garanzia di tranquillità.
Recomendables, tanto el proveedor como el equipo.
Ero forse un po' spaventato da altre recensioni che parlavano di macchinose configurazioni ostiche "anche per chi ne sa", come ha scritto qualcuno.
Mi sa che allora non ne sapeva un gran ché, perché non sono certo un mago del networking, tuttavia ho aggregato con ottimi risultati di velocità complessiva (Upload, download e latenza) due connessioni disomogenee, 4g LTE e adsl 20Mb, entrambe di TIM.
Non ho trovato nessuna delle difficoltà che citano i fantomatici "smanettoni", anzi, questo dispositivo è proprio quello che ci vuole se ci si affaccia per la prima volta al mondo delle reti aggregate.
Ho risolto facilmente anche il problema delle connessioni sicure Https su porta 443 che, con un normale router aggregatore ( Dual Wan in modalità Load Balance), si verificano a causa del doppio IP pubblico che si crea utlilizzando in contemporanea due connessioni ad internet: questo router ha infatti una terza modalità di funzionamento, oltre a fail over e load balance, sticky balance che, in caso ci si imbatta in una sessione sicura https sulla classica porta 443, resta per 10 min. su di unico IP pubblico, in modo da permettere il Login al sito della vostra banca o simili. Ovviamente si possono aggiungere altre porte (max 10 di entrambe le tipologie, UDP e TCP.) per migliorare ulteriormente la navigazione.
In conclusione, questo dispositivo risulta assolutamente trasparente ed instancabile, pur funzionando per settimane in modalità load o sticky balance e, chi "ne sa" capisce cosa intendo, a differenza della concorrenza.
Forse adesso è diventato un po' troppo caro, visto che la settimana scorsa, l'ho pagato, qui su Amazon, 149,99€, mentre adesso, a distanza di una settimana, vedo che è salito a 200€ e spiccioli.
Misteri del marketing....
