Pros & Cons
Cons
I like the design and the supposed feature set, but this router doesn't work in any way as advertised. G port does not work correctly, it is slower when set to 2.

It will not auto negotiate and even manually configuring it causes network flapping
Price
With that said i bought an inexpensive set of media converters to use with it and they work fine
It took me quite a while to find this router at a good price as availabity has been quite limited
For the price you cant really beat this for features
Shipping
The delivery was quick and no issues with the product
Competitiveness
This is one of the most high powered routers that mikrotik makes
I tried 4 different makes of sfp fiber modules including the mikrotik brand which mikrotik states is compatible and none of them work
There are certainly worse devices that cost a lot more
The interface may not look as pretty as unifi but its got so much more functionality and horsepower

The chip it uses for moving packets in hardware 88e6393x is pretty versatile though this is where weak points emerge
