Cons and watch-outs
What to verify.
Trade-offs and buying checks, not claims that a product is defective.
No multi-gig Ethernet.
Dual-band wireless backhaul shares airtime with clients.
Older than newer Wi-Fi 7 choices, though still adequate for most NBN plans.
Before buying, confirm exact ISP login, VLAN, BYO support and home-phone requirements. Wi-Fi coverage is never guaranteed from a floor-area claim alone.
