I was looking for a reliable wifi router capable of handling vlans manageable by console port that can connect as a vpn client to NordVPN (in order to have access to services available only abroad)
I am partly satisfied
Advantages :
_vlans (LAN and Wifi)
vpn server
SNMP, radius, QOS,
_4G
Disadvantages :
_console port physically present but useless (28/09/2020) because disabled (will surely be available in the next firmware update)
_configuration of the router only through the web interface
The LDLC service department was very helpful and replaced the router after a problem.
I was able to reconfigure the replacement router without any problems using the backup file. Now it works perfectly and does not crash anymore. The wifi may be a bit limited.
Otherwise Cisco offers maintenance contracts for professionals.
This router is very quick to install, and the features are those of a standard CISCO router (6rd and 6in4 support, VLANS, LAG, Firewall, VPN, NAT, DMZ, Jumbo frames, WIFI Guest, running/startup config, 4G backup + dual WAN, LDAP & RADIUS Auth ...) and
allows a RESTCONF/NETCONF configuration.
The only drawback for me: the console port is disabled.
I recommend it!
Hello,
The router had to be replanted several times for Cisco to ask me to return it to Hungary at my expense. For the last 3 days, radio silence despite my reminders
Remark: the telephone exchanges are in English.
I have to admit that I am very disappointed with Cisco's policy regarding equipment for individuals and SMEs. I've been using this brand for a while now and it's exactly what I wanted to avoid...
After less than a month of use, the router froze twice, blocking all communications. A Wifi reset and a reboot were necessary. The administration possibilities are very good but it is not reliable.
