Review on MikroTik RB2011UiAS RM Routerboard Rackmount 5XGbit by Ray Sheptock

I had a Netgear house, wired router. I bought it with caveats: all the reviews said it had a steep learning curve. I laughed in surprise as I pocketed it. A few R2D2 beeps and it worked - much faster than Netgear's startup and boot diagnostics. Right out of the box, this kid instantly connected, booted, and deployed a pre-installed routing and firewall service to my home. I began to trust Netgear: a good half hour of reboots, power offs, wishes, dancing around the keyboard. MikroTik joined and removed my default Netgear songs and dances which worked right away. The first router overview page that popped up on my computer screen was simple, detailed, and straightforward. EASY. EASY. Yes, there are many things in the set that you can DIY. The options menu was as long as my leg. I'll leave that to the guys who need more than a reliable router for home use. There is a wiki page for this device where everything is described. For those who need to get set up for business, save the page to the wiki for offline use and you're done. Excellent price. Excellent value for money and quality.
