And prolly skimps on the actual parts that matter like the quality of radios, RF management, etc... There's one company that allready has touchscreen anyways called Securify almond. So no this company is not the first.

The only use for that storage space that I can see on a router is the OS itself and WAN optimization cache... which this most certainly DOES NOT HAVE!!!

I'm seriously thinking about it. My D-Link DGL-4500 has been having more and more hiccups and I really don't see any routers on the market that are that attractive for the asking price. The one thing for sure that is stopping me from contributing is that they haven't convinced me it will actually be a good router. Case in point, the Indie Go Go page says nothing about whether it even has a web/remote admin page. I sure don't want to do all configuration directly from the router. Also, I'm not entirely sure the touchscreen/Android actually serves a useful purpose. If I bought it, it would mostly be for the hardware (2x5GHz, 2x2.4GHz antennas and lots of USB3/SATA connectivity).

i agree with many, i'd rather have that cost of screen and arm cpu implementation put into something that pertains to its job....routing network data.

Decided against it. The router isn't next to me and it isn't moving. The person who does sit next to it would never use it. It would probably only get used like five times in its entire life. Additionally, I have no 802.11ac devices and there are none in the foreseeable future. The $200 featured price is tempting (nothing on the market presently can compete just looking at its hardware) but when it's main features would not be used much/at all, I should be looking at a $50 802.11n and not this.

If you're looking in the 'under $50' range...put this on a short list.

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produ...e=asus_wireless_router-_-33-320-168-_-Product

With Shibby Tomato...it's a pretty damn good router.

Also...

I came from a D-Link DGL 4300 that I loved...never dropped a connection in 5 years.

It's made me a big fan of D-Link...so for my own home, I'm using the DIR-655(refurbs are about $30). Despite quite a few people complaining about them, it's the best router I've ever owned. The only downside is with the custom chip they use in the 655...you can't use any open source software on it...but....the latest 1.37 firmware is rock-solid. I'm running two pc's, Roku, and Ooma on mine and it hasn't dropped a connection - period. I've tested an ASUS RT N66 in the house and the D-Link had much better coverage and seemed faster to me(it had less trouble connecting at 300mbps). Just my experience...but I ended up returning the ASUS and keeping my D-Link. I don't plan on upgrading for quite some time. Although...I do get the upgrade bug like everybody else...so I'm a regular reader of small net builder.

Nothing in our house connects over 300mbps...why buy more.

Best,

LC

I ditched consumer grade networking becuase the companies don't give a shit about their customers and they rarely fix firmware when my Meraki Z1 has had two firmware updates since I got it about a couple weeks ago.

having proper VLANs (most consumer implementations have no trunk ports and no custom DHCP scopes) and having more control of my network is worth it. It also has PER CLIENT policies as well so i can allow/block stuff on a per client basis and it also intergrates with meraki systems manager as well. See my review for more details. I have real time B/W monitoring, event logs, site visit logs, application usage logs, performance logs, rogue AP detection,etc. It also has a neat android app for monitoring the Z1 as well. Oh and it also has SNMP support so I get PRTG sensors :)

Ah man I can't explain stuff well. Um, like a jerk or sudden, small movement? I meant "twitch" as a reaction to them calling the 500GB SSD memory instead of storage. 500 GB of RAM would be awesome. :p

but isnt that a license router? how is a consumer going to buy that and afford to have it licensed for use? is it a reduced functionality mode like watch dogs?
