Especially since they make such great hardware (with an acceptable price tag -- as a consumer).
I've had all sorts of problems with "normal" routers due to too many connections (too many devices on the LAN -- don't ask), I was never able to make full use of my 50/50 pipe.
I've recently been upgraded to 100/100 for free (and soon 300/100), and it's still running like a champ.
That being said, it was the first router that I wasn't able to configure just by clicking around.
But they're advancing greatly on the UX part with every firmware release, so it's actually friendly enough to recommend now.
- dorfsmay 10y agoI have a switch and APs. They do have weird bugs that you'd really don't expect from a networking company. They do fix the important ones eventually. Still good value for the price.
- johansch 10y agoOne example of a weird EdgeOS bug that affected their Edgerouter products: http://community.ubnt.com/t5/EdgeMAX-Updates-Blog/EdgeMAX-EdgeRouter-X-X-SFP-bootloader-update/ba-p/1472216 http://community.ubnt.com/t5/EdgeMAX-Updates-Blog/EdgeMAX-Ed... (During boot the router was working as pure ethernet switch - i.e. in a typical home deployment you would be wide open to the internet during this time.) As far as I can tell, this was there for quite some time. In order to find the fix I had to find and read the user forums. I also couldn't find either a security update email list or an automatic firmware update feature. I guess you're supposed to follow their forum if you care about security...
