Pros & Cons

Pros

This is a very stable wifi router, and you will get very fast speeds if you configure it correctly. It's price competes with consumer grade routers which don't offer nearly the same level of management. Wpa3 is fully supported for the new wifi6 ax sta...  Read More

No marketing mumbo-jumbo. Just works. It works like a champ! Good stuff. There's a few of them on amazon that are inexpensive.

The engenius has a gigabit connection to the lan. Over 900mbit's in perf. Performance graphing. Fast speed when used with newer wifi cards.

The mount clips to a rail but also has two screw holes. The mounting hardware is included with the product.

Ethernet has been run so now the last thing was to install an access point fast enough to avoid bottlenecking the new connectio...  Read More

Packaging/appearance


But the eap600 it replaced in the very same spot would not even connect


I replaced a unifi device with this unit because i wanted to get out of the ubiquiti ecosystem and move to something more reliable


I can not stress how important it is to update the firmware of the engenius ews377ap before you start changing other settings

Competitiveness


I use this in my house with a couple other engenius products


2 gbs throughput from the ews377s down and up using a minisforum minipc with wifi6 so really great performance


We recently setup a pfsense firewall as our main router and needed an wireless ap
