    Not at the moment, but will pass on the interest

    Cruiseronroad, what modems are you currently eyeing? Do you have a shortlist?

    I have cable internet too and the Optus supplied modem is terrible.

      Pretty sure you aren't allowed to change the HFC modem.

      Hey Zinger,

      After more time on whirlpool than I'd like to admit, I've come to the same conclusion that JAKEBAB posted below. Best option we can do in our position is put the supplied modem router in passthrough mode and use our own router

  It's rather confusing to put NBN ready when the router doesn't have a modem for FTTN connection.

    Its a waste of money to have a HFC/FTTN/FTTP/Wireless NBN router all in one.

    This is FTTP NBN ready.

      Fixed wireless compatible too.

        And HFC ready

    It says NBN ready not fraudband ready.

    Btw seems way overpriced for a home router.

      You would really only buy it if you had a need for 802.11ad - 4600Mbps over a short distance.

  • 

    JAKEBAB on 15/09/2017 - 15:26

    It can still work with FTTN.

• 

  futaris on 15/09/2017 - 11:52

  There are hardly any 802.11ad devices out there, and 802.11ax is better on 2.4GHz and 5GHz…

  This has Plex built in. Very tempting.

    Don't count on transcoding support though.

      Yeah not bet good according to reviews.

        Also drops clients on 2.4 and 5 under load for the last 3 firmware releases.
        Wifi range is also pretty poor considering those antenni.

  Expensive. A pair of Orbi has been cheaper than this. How much better is AD? None of my devices support it yet, so it would be of limited use. But almost everything I have supports AC.

  10Gbps SFP is very unusual for a home router. Good if you have a NAS or roll your own.
