RB941-2nD RouterBoard hAP lite 2.4GHz home Access Point lite

This is a fantastic portable AP, I carry it to work with me to prove to customers their wireless APs are defective, or to hotels to have my own Wifi. Like other Routerboard products, you use Winbox to log in and manage the unit. Tons of features and can customize to whatever you want. Runs on Level 4 of the Mikrotik license, which is more than what you need for a home router or AP. Constant updates. Always adding new features and fixing bugs. This is by far the best I've seen from router manufacturers. Can be modified for a WISP, or a wifi-bridge. Can be powered from a computer/laptop. I'm currently typing this on a laptop with a USB cable powering the unit. BGP/OSPF/RIP routing protocols, which is great for testing or introducing into a large network environment. No Console port. Not even worth taking off a star. You can use Winbox to connect over MAC address even if you screw something up on layer 3. Overall, still a fantastic Wifi router/AP after a lot of testing and use.

The shipping was incredibly fast, and the item was exactly as advertised. I love it and would 100% purchase from this seller again.

perfect for our home as an access point. Im using this for the houses wifi it workes perfectly. The signal strength is customizable but its range is wide enough to encompass our single story house. The wifi strength is weaker than normal routers but for me that's perfect because I'd like to avoid being bombarded with radiation.

You won't find anything better at this price point. Don't let the size and price fool you, this is a powerful WiFi router with high end features. If you don't need 5GHz and gigabit ethernet, this is going to work as good or better than any of the "Cisco"/Linksys, low end netgear, or similar Belkin offerings. The RouterOS system is unmatched by all the competition in this price range. Many of these companies don't offer timely updates or stop releasing firmware upgrades altogether. There are limitless possibilities with cheap devices like these from MikroTik. Granted, they may not have a as clean and polished a configuration experience for the new user as they would be accustomed to. The quick setup page is certainly enough for any novice user to get going, but for anything beyond that I wouldn't want to try to train anyone that isn't already comfortable with networking and IT. In short, MikroTik has been the most exciting thing to happen for me which inspired and renewed my passion for networking. I have two more on the way now that I've seen how well they work.

Purchased this router to test out (was not given or exchange for review). Router works good, simple first time setup works for simple locations who just need basic internet connectivity, or ISP Mode works for simple locations of the same (i.e. checking email, using a tablet, watching a few videos, etc.) Where I think the router lacks is that the ports are only 100Mbps, and would not work good for a camera streaming setup, large usage of internet, etc. Those operations need 1000Mbps ports, but for $25 it does work as advertised. We found on our unit once using the reset button we could no longer connect to the device and had to use the Mikrotik WinBox software to connect to it via MAC address and setting a static IP on the computer to do so. To me this complicates things for the average user. Overall this device performed fine, worked great for the situations that needed to, but to me just failed in proper operation. (Which is if you press the reset button as instructed in the manual it comes back to factory settings and setup, not having to go in by software and MAC to issue a reset from there before it does.) Good value for the money, but only rated a 3 for stability for the reset issue.

This router is amazing. It has routerOS and while it's not super easy to use it has incredible amount of options and settings. I was able to setup VPN with IPSEC between two of those routers over internet and create routing between two facilities. You do get your money worth of components so don't expect getting 200 Mbps over wifi but it's very capable device. BTW, I'm getting about 20 Mbps through the VPN so it's totally doable for applications that don't have heavy data flow.

Muy buenooo

Finally MikroTik the maker of amazing enterprise class routers has built a consumer SOHO router at a price that nothing available on the market today can touch. MikroTik routers are not the easiest to configure (the advanced features) if you aren't familiar with their language. But if you want 100% control of your network this is it. I use it for QoS (prioritizing devices over others) and many many other advanced features. WiFi output power is much greater than other consumer routers. Another plus is this works as a great travel router for hotels or to keep safe with personal WiFi when Ethernet is available. Because this takes MicroUSB for power you can power anywhere off of USB battery pack, car charger, etc...

Je l'ai acheté car pendant mes vacances d'été j'ai pus me connecter sur l'un des Mikrotik qui avait a la plage. J'ai sus entré en tant qu'administrateur. Il y a tellement de paramètres. TOP ! Je l'ai acheté pour avoir plus d'expérience dans le réseau. Je dirais que ce WiFi conviens a une personne qui connait rien en informatique. Et ce produit est Plug and Play ça veut dire que des que l'appareil est en fonction et branché par un câble RJ5 il fonctionne directement. attention a ne pas avoir la même adresse ip : info l'adresse ip de ce Mikrotik que j'ai reçus est le 192.168.88.1 pour ceux qui se le demande. Pour info je l'ai su grâce a l'application fing qui permet de scanner les réseaux connecté. 5/5 et en plus minuscule !

Produto bom!! Gostei

Un prodotto molto completo, con caratteristiche per tutti i gusti e necessità. Ha talmente tante opzioni e configurazioni possibili, che ad una prima occhiata è davvero semplice smarrirsi. Dopo aver analizzato l'interfaccia, ci si accorge, anche con l'aiuto della guida online (quando non si sa ad esempio che cos'è "CAPsMAN" e simili) che alcune sezioni possono essere tranquillamente ignorate SE non utilizzate. RouterOS è un sistema proprietario; ho avuto qualche problema con la current version 6.41; funzionava davvero male per creare un "PTP Bridge AP" (Point To Point Bridge Access Point), sono DOVUTO PER FORZA tornare al canale "bugfix only" versione 6.39.3 e resettare le impostazioni, per far funzionare questo apparecchio come punto di accesso wireless attraverso una lan cablata e riuscire ad accedere correttamente alla gestione via web. CONSIGLI: Immagino che molti vorranno creare un semplice access point via LAN. Ad esempio in questo caso, basta usare le configurazioni rapide (Quick Set), PTP Bridge AP; Ho messo un IP STATICO fuori dal range DHCP del modem-router principale (consigliato); Gateway e DNS con IP del modem-router principale (nel mio caso il DNS era un server pi-hole); Nella stessa pagina impostare anche il Wi-Fi a piacere; FATTO. Insomma, per le configurazioni base non è neanche così complicato grazie ai preset. Ho disattivato alcuni servizi che non utilizzo nella sezione IP e disattivato il WPS nella scheda Wireless. A questo punto con tutta calma e se vi interessa, potrete fare degli approfondimenti online per vedere se ci sono delle opzioni che potrebbero essere interessanti da implementare nella vostra rete. Dato il prezzo onesto mi sento di consigliare ampiamente il dispositivo; ripeto, ho avuto solo qualche noia con il software ma rimanendo ad una versione precedente stabile e corretta (canale bugfix) non ho avuto più nessun imprevisto. Probabilmente il canale current è troppo ""instabile"" in un certo senso (o almeno nel mio caso). Sinceramente cambia poco nulla tra le versioni e preferisco la stabilità. Segnale Wi-Fi buono. CONSIGLIATO (allego foto con la router board interna)

Can't get better for the price, and although I have plenty of wireless experience this device would not talk to sonos play 3 unless wireless N was off, and then my macbook refused to connect. Didn't get much help from the forum. With a little persuasion these can run openwrt which I find far better to use, but then you won't learn the firmware which although highly complex, has every feature you could possibly think of. 5v .8a micro usb power is convenient, and will run happily from most devices USB port. Update Jun16. After my own router packed up, this was all I had. Plugged in, figured out port forwarding (NEVER via the web interface - command line only) and it has easily been the most reliable router I have used. There was a huge software/firmware upddate to 6.35.1 which fixed the wifi issues. It has been up for 4 months without a single problem. Very efficient wifi - Outperformed a RT-N66U with tomato. It's running from a USB port in the back of a DVD player. Although I find these things a bit bonkers configuration-wise, just find out what you need to do. portforwarding port 514 to 192.168.0.14 from the external web is as follows: /ip firewall nat add chain=dstnat dst-port=514 action=dst-nat protocol=tcp to-address=192.168.0.14 in-interface=ether1 Open the web interface's own command prompt, type that in and that's it. Nothing else. It simply works. Try that with your dlink/linksys/belkin jokers and it won't be as simple. Get one as a spare - Same price as 3 pints of poncy bitter up town.

Bor man i ett hyreshus och leter efter en väldigt svåg accesspunkt är detta en bra val. Men Har man lite större lägenhet Eller Bor man i Villa bli man bara besviken. Genererar hoss mig mindre än en tredjedel av yttäkning som en "vanligt" router.
