Complex interface, but powerful
I got this because the brand is highly-recommended online. I use it for basic home internet usage, including streaming via Moonlight, PSN, and Xbox. I also specifically chose this one for the SFP port for running fiber to my garage, and it works great for that. The setup interface is VERY in-depth, and you can do pretty much whatever you want with it. That said, it is not as simple to setup as your average Netgear or TP-link router. If you know what you’re doing, or don’t mind doing some research to figure things out, then by all means have at it. But if you are just looking to get online, I would recommend going with a big brand from a box store.

Very Fast Router!
I replaced a 10 year old TP-Link router with this one. The speed went from 50mbs to 650 mbs! The only issue I had is that the instructions supplied are in tiny font that I needed a magnifying glass to read. This router has a pre-installed password that is located on the tag of the router and box...again tiny font. I was able to download instructions from the website along with the software needed to access the router to apply the password. After watching a few installation videos, I decided to give it a go with just the standard set up. It worked perfectly!

rock solid
I've been used to pfsense, setting up this was not so easy as it's definitely not for beginners, I have lot's of experience but this was fun to learn and once is properly configured you can almost forget it's there. In my case it solved many DHCP related issues because of how my stupid ISP handles that and on pfsense i never found what was going on.

If a gift like this was received!
Awesome product, great addition to my home lab. Integrates well with my home lab setup.Provides robust, granular control allowing a fair amount of flexibility.Ability to use the command line to apply the changes is a high point for me.If you've been looking and are considering this device, I highly recommend it.The implementation of VLAN's I was able to put to use with ease. Pushing to OpenWRT based device and serving multiple wifis on different VLAN's.Will need to give device a short break, if not can spend all day thinking about what and how you can do something.

Way more stable that TP-Link Omada
Its been a week or 2 and no issues, performance wise I couldn't be happier. I used Mikrotik software 20 years ago when I worked for an ISP and wasn't disappointed. My last router would random reboot then one day wouldn't boot. I am an advanced user and appreciate all of the configuration options available even though I have no use for them on my home network. Easy to configure for basic internet connectivity, fast reboot time. I hope the hardware holds up.

Decent little router
I have yet to really use this was planning on redoing my home network set uo.with a different internet company and they never completed the work. I'm sure it works well and will do some testing but should be good enough for most home users. (NO Wifi for anyone looking in the future)

I’ve loved MikroTik for years, but it’s just no longer a reasonable choice
I have owned this model router for many years and I have always loved it until now. The router OS is absolutely amazing, it’s fast and offers enterprise level configuration. However something is now seriously wrong with these routers which makes them unusable if your primary goal is just simply to have reliable Internet access.My first one worked for several years with zero problems before it started randomly rebooting and dropping connections. I tried all of the “fixes” I could find on the Internet, but nothing would work. I figured it was just old hardware and decided to replace it with the exact same model. After a few weeks the new one is now doing the same thing and randomly rebooting!There is no valid explanation or excuse for it, the Internet just randomly drops and then eventually you can hear the BEEP noise when the router reboots itself and starts back up. The error log sometimes shows that there was a “kernel failure” around the time of reboot.Unfortunately, I just don’t have the time to troubleshoot these problems and need a router that is more simple and reliable.It’s really sad to say, but I can no longer trust these MikroTik routers to provide reliable Internet access for my home. It’s still a cool toy to play with for a hobbyist or if you are trying to learn about networking, but it is not so cool if you work from home and literally rely on reliable Internet to survive.I had to return mine and go back to a boring TP-Link router that has much less options and is quite slow, but is rock solid reliable.

Difficult on purpose
I know this router is for geeks / hackers / experts? But, it feels cryptic on purpose. Like there's a terminal that has a short line length limit. It's 2025!!!! I have had line length limits since my 8bit computer days in the 80s. Many of the settings in the UI are ridiculously over complicated. I guess every setting in their has a purpose but it certainly feels like it's been designed to be difficult as like a gatekeeper. I much perferered my EdgeRouter X but Ubiquiti stopped making them so I gave this a try. I got it setup but it was way more work than it needed to be.
