    • Think I Finally Found a Decent 802.11ac Router
Style: RT2600ac Pattern Name: Wi-Fi router
If there’s anything I learned in the last 10 weeks from trying to replace a Netgear WNDR3800 and R6300 with a newer 802.11ac router is that wireless is consistently inconsistent. I tested the Synology RT1900ac, Netgear R8500 (3 of them thanks to failing radios), ASUS RT-AC5300, RT-AC3100, RT-AC1900P and now the Synology RT2600ac. The R8500 was faster overall than all of them but there was no way I was going to continue with replacements with repeated radio failures and wasn't going to put up with their tired interface and lack a features. I really liked the RT1900ac features and interface but had average performance at best. I wound up settling with the RT-AC5300 because it was almost as fast as the R8500 but had a better interface and features. There have been reports that the radios in this model have been failing like the Netgear and left me uneasy; I’m wondering if it has something to do with the Broadcom chipset they share or if they’re overheating because there isn’t any way to adjust power with both tri-band models. Luckily the RT2600ac started shipping before my return period expired on the RT-AC5300 and keeping the Synology. I wish performance was better overall than the R8500 but I’d stack it in-between the two with the Synology beating the Netgear on a few of my tests. Performance for all models were inconsistent and neither of the top three dominated, but my choice was based on performance in locations and operations I perform the most, family feedback, features, product management and usability. I like that you can adjust power levels but only low, medium and high are offered; the low levels on 2GHz and 5GHz cover the areas I need on that segment of my network. The other models don’t let you adjust power levels. It’s nice I’m not restricted to 16 character passwords like the ASUS models. One down side is that it doesn’t support 64 HEX characters like other routers and clients and have addressed this with Synology. At least they responded the next day to my query unlike the other manufacturers. It’s great that Synology and ASUS allow you to change the admin user name and also support HTTPS management on the LAN side as well as selecting your own port unlike Netgear. The Synology has certificate support which can be exported to other appliances and allows SYSLOG as well as other features. I’m currently using the router as an NTP server and pointing all devices to it so only one device goes out externally for time. Another feature I’m looking forward to testing more is the IPS beta add-on they have; it’s a free feature and there’s also a paid subscription service. You need to have external storage to download and use so a fast SD card should do. Off the top of my head it added about 10% CPU usage up to (30ish) and the same amount of RAM. There are other packages available that can be downloaded like a DNS server, VPN and others but not planning on using it on this router. I was pleased to see the addition of eight 5GHz band channels (52-112) (the RT1900ac had this as well) but haven’t had the chance to use them. There are currently no users on those channels in my area and it reminds me of the days when I was the only one using 802.11a on 5GHz for years. Too bad it’s getting crowded like 2.4GHz in my area. I think Synology made good with their second router attempt and glad I’m able to use “big boy” features not seen on consumer/home routers and for less cost. ASUS can try to polish their UI with their “updated” 5300 for a lot more money but my money is going to Synology with a more complete package. I’m also confident they’d support this product with updates longer than the home versions based on experience with some of their NAS devices. This isn’t a controlled test environment but my typical “real world” operation. Used a PCIe Half Mini Card Intel AC 7260 2x2 (867 Mb), an ASUS USB-AC68 USB 3.0 3x4 (1300 Mb), and Netgear A6200 USB 2.0 (867 Mb) adapters for testing. Routers were swapped at the same location on a second floor and clients on 1st floor (same location) at about 45 degree angle and approximately 40 ft. away. Power was set to high for RT2600ac and both used same fixed channels on 5GHz where adjacent interference was minimal. Routers were upgraded to latest versions, set in AP mode and fully configured as I would normally run as well as client adapters updated on Windows 10 64-bit. USB-AC68 using USB 3.0 system: RT-AC5300 – 128 Mb peak / 128 Mb typical download 240 Mb peak / 232 Mb typical upload 232 Mb peak / 168 Mb typical download w/MIMO 200 Mb peak / 264 Mb typical upload w/MIMO RT2600ac – 136 Mb peak / 120 Mb typical download 200 Mb peak / 184 Mb typical upload 128 Mb peak / 120 Mb typical download w/MIMO 208 Mb peak / 200 Mb typical upload w/MIMO USB-AC68 using USB 2.0 system: RT-AC5300 – 256 Mb peak / 248 Mb typical download 224 Mb peak / 216 Mb typical upload 240 Mb peak / 224 Mb typical download w/MIMO 32 Mb peak / 24 Mb typical upload w/MIMO RT2600ac – 272 Mb peak / 264 Mb typical download 264 Mb peak / 200 Mb typical upload 272 Mb peak / 264 Mb typical download w/MIMO 208 Mb peak / 200 Mb typical upload w/MIMO A6200 USB 2.0 adapter: RT-AC5300 – 88 Mb peak / 88 Mb typical download 200 Mb peak / 184 Mb typical upload 88 Mb peak / 80 Mb typical download w/MIMO 192 Mb peak / 184 Mb typical upload w/MIMO RT2600ac – 96 Mb peak / 72 Mb typical download 192 Mb peak / 184 Mb typical upload 112 Mb peak / 80 Mb typical download w/MIMO 192 Mb peak / 184 Mb typical upload w/MIMO Internal 7260: RT-AC5300 – 328 Mb peak / 304 Mb typical download 184 Mb peak / 168 Mb typical upload 128 Mb peak / 120 Mb typical download w/MIMO 288 Mb peak / 272 Mb typical upload w/MIMO RT2600ac – 240 Mb peak / 144 Mb typical download 224 Mb peak / 200 Mb typical upload 240 Mb peak / 192 Mb typical download w/MIMO 264 Mb peak / 192 typical upload w/MIMO Gigabit Ethernet: RT-AC5300 –536 Mb peak / 504 Mb typical download 920 Mb peak / 904 Mb typical upload RT2600ac – 632 Mb peak / 504 Mb typical download 920 Mb peak / 904 Mb typical upload Highest speed gap in favor of the RT-AC5300 was about 160 Mb better average download speed with 7260 adapter. Highest speed gap for the RT2600ac was about 176 Mb better average upload speed with USB-AC68 adapter on USB 2.0 system. The fastest wireless speed test was achieved by the RT-AC5300 with the 7260 adapter registering 328 Mb peak and 304 Mb average download. The same router w/MIMO enabled also had the slowest wireless speed test with the USB-AC68 adapter, on a USB 2.0 system with only 32 Mb peak and 24 Mb average upload. Wired switch speed on the RT2600ac was 96 Mb faster peak but both had the same average uploads; this was slower by about 360 Mb than other switches tested. Upload speeds were equal and as good as or slightly better than other switches. - - - UPDATE Finally got around to testing additional 5 GHz channels and the ASUS USB-AC68 doesn't work with them. The notebooks with the internal Intel NICs picked up every channel I threw at it. These are the channels the ASUS couldn't handle: 52,56,60,64,100,104,108,112,116,132,136,140 I can imagine those that turn on automagic channel selection (only on few routers that support these channels - not ASUS) and all of a sudden clients stop connecting because of adapters that don't support them. I'm glad the new router supports these channels since nobody is using them in the area...it will be like 802.11a days again where I was solo for a long while. Time to go notebook shopping so I can get rid of the legacy gear and get an internal Intel NIC. Wish I would have tested this a week ago so I could return the adapter. Guess I'll chuck it in the draw with my 1Mb PCMCIA Wifi adapter after I get a new notebook. - - - 11/26/17 Update - - - Gave up on the asus USB-AC68 because of inconsistent performance and lack up any new drivers since May. I'm not holding my breath on any fixes for KRACK for this adapter either. Intel even released updated drivers the day after mainstream word of KRACK for the AC7260 card that was introduced in 2013 and currently EOL. Oh, and Synology even updated their older RT1900AC (2 years old already) router the day after as well. ... show more

    • Great for my main house router.
Style: RT6600ax Pattern Name: Wi-Fi router
It arrived with the latest 1.3 firmware version which is incompatable with my existing Synology2600 router, and my 3 Synology 2200 mesh routers, all of which were at a 1.2 version firmware. I intend to reuse the 3 2200's in the wired mesh configuration, and downgrade my existing 2600 router to being a wired wifi access point in my garage. After struggling to figure out how to upgrade the 2200's to make them talk to the new 6600 unit, I finally figured out how. If there is documentation on this, I never found it. After checking a dozen or so YouTube experts, I took the 2200 units one at a time, did a hard reset, (pressing the tiny rear switch with a paper clip for > 10 seconds), left them to boot back up to the single blue LED, and then wired them to an open LAN port on the new 6600. Took a while to see them pop up in the Wifi screen on the 6600 routers software. After a while, the option to upgrade them appeared. Clicked on that and it completed pretty quickly. Relocated the newly minted ver 1.3 2200 mesh throughout my house and connected them with my cat5e cables. Did this 3 times and all was well. They were previously meshed by radio link but this time I hard wired them, set to AUTO connection in the software so they can fall back to a wifi radio connection if neccessary. Still have to do this with the 2600 unit, but the cat6e cable has yet to be run to the garage, so, no big rush. Aside from this, the only other issue I've run into was when I tried to use the single USB-A port to run an external drive. I wanted to do this because its required to make use of the optional Threat Protection software. Synology has a small list of acceptable drives. I tried a cheap 32G thumbdrive and a Samsung 850 EVO 500G SSD. Neither of these is on Synology's list, and both of them repeatably failed by appearing to connect and disconnect, causing the Threat Protection software to fail. So, back to Amazon to find something on their accepable list. Got a ADATA HD710 Pro, 2.5" External drive. An actual spinning disk. Seems like going backwards in time, but it is working. Software loaded and runs OK, and I still have an additional 1.4G of usable space. I did select the option to allow the disk to hibernate when not in use. After all that, the setup is working amazingly well. The wifi signal strength app on my phone just maxes out anywhere in the house. ... show more

    • Synology RT2600ac - Great for the price point
Style: RT2600ac Pattern Name: Wi-Fi router
Review Image by S Brown S Brown
I am a software engineer / remote server administrator... I have gone through a ton of routers and this is by far my favorite. Pros: 1. Multiple WAN fail over. Get two incoming internet connections, put the router in 'fail over' mode and if one goes down, the other seamlessly connects. 2. VLan configuration. Set up multiple networks and isolate them from each other. Great if you have a bunch of household devices like phones, televisions, tablets that you want to keep on separate network from your PC and NAS. 3. Very slick and easy to comprehend UI. It has a nice 'Windows' feel to it and its easy to understand and get around in. 4. Robust firewall features and good flexibility in the type of rules you can set up. 5. The free VPN Plus Service ad on package is one of the most flexible VPN services I have seen in this class of router. Among other things, It includes a browser based vpn server that allows users to access resources inside your network much like a reverse proxy without the need to configure VPN at the client end. For more info on that search 'Synology VPN Plus Server on youtube'. Cons: 1. UI (if you are constantly in the admin windows and making changes) can be a little sluggish. I am considering upgrading to the RT6600 (the big brother to this router that has a little more horse power). 2. Not enough ad on packages. The router has a great 'Package' center but there are only 7 or so ad on packages you can get. I can imagine a lot more!! ... show more
