    Extended functionalities + openwrt

    A number of features are available and can be configured, including VLANs and the WDS (Wireless Distribution System).

    I bought 2 wax206s: one as a WDS Access Point and the other as a WDS client.

    I didn't test the Netgear interface: I installed Openwrt and its Luci web interface.

    French notice deficient

    Excellent product but complicated to program due to very poor instructions.
    I've been using it for a while now and it's not that bad.

    Good, but must do better

    Looking for a wifi 6 router with a 2.5Gb WAN port, that can be positioned in a patch bay/communication cabinet, without looking like a weird insect full of antennas :)
    The speeds are good, Ethernet, Wifi (2.4 and 5 ghz).
    I'm not sure if it's a "Professional" version or not, but it's not very functional, and it's not very easy to manage... Not even an integrated DNS server (like on a Synology), primitive firewall, etc...
    Given the price, it does the trick while waiting for better.
    When will we see a full 2.5 Gb wifi router or more?

    Does what it is told

    The WIFI terminal works perfectly. I like the many advanced settings, including the VLAN. It's just a pity that the settings for disabling WIFI at certain times are not more flexible. Uplink connectivity in 2.5GBASE-T without worries.
