Cons and watch-outs

What to verify.

Trade-offs and buying checks, not claims that a product is defective.

  • Dual-band Wi-Fi 7 operates on 2.4 and 5 GHz.
  • Only one wired LAN port remains when using Ethernet WAN.
  • Voice requires an eligible service and compatible SIP settings.

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.

For an RSP-supplied router, compare any hardware fee, required plan term, return obligation and locked provider features. For retail hardware, confirm Australian stock and the exact regional model.
