Most Critical Review

Range is absolutely Horrible

TRENDnet TEW-818DRU AC1900 Dual Band Wireless Router, DD-WRT Open Source Support

Pros: The only thing I liked about this router was the size, upright stance and lights to let you know what the router is doing.

Cons: Trendnet advertises this router as whole home coverage with powerful amplifiers. I found this to be very untrue as the 5 ghz band was good for 10' and the 2.4 ghz band was good for 15' so its more like a whole room router. I had 2 of these and after the second one was no better then the first one I requested a refund.

Overall Review: I used the first one for a week to see if some burn in time would improve the range and it didn't so I thought that I just got a bad one. I sent it back and got a replacement and the range on the new one was just as bad, I finally gave up and sent it back for a refund. I basically wasted a month and $25 waiting and paying for shipping.
