Review: Simplicity and Need for Appreciated Speed!!! - I purchased my first Synology RT6600ax April 2023. About 6months later I decided to purchase a second one and use as a Mesh (meaning like Orbi and other units tying them together). Depending on your square footage of your home, you may or may not need more than one. Some may need updwards of 3 at best or 4 or more for much larger homes. The average person likely only need between 1-3 with 2 being ideal for most. Let me start by saying you don't have to be a Techy person to setup Synology routers. The user interface (Linux) is very clean and easy to use. Adding additional RT6600ax units are super easy as well during setup. All "looks" not jokes aside, don't be fooled by it's appearance. As a matter of fact, who cares as long as it performs and that's where Synology comes in. "Set it and forget it!" You can set up to a total of 4 different WiFi names to connect to plus add a Guest one for a total of 5, to keep lets say IoT (Internet of Things) = Smart devices separate from your Gaming and/or Streaming devices. I have my Main, Gaming, Media, IoT, and Guest. You can name them whatever you like. What I like most about Synology unlike others... NO SUBSCRIPTIONS! Their security is top-notch as well as downloadable apps are free and useful. You can also create and run let say a VPN on the router and allow only specific traffic to use it and allow others to bypass it. Super cool. Set it and forget it! Now, let me say this because I've been reading some reviews here and there about Synology support and speed. I'm going to call BS on the majority and call those the entitled group who feels like their needs are important over all things possibe, not of reality. HEY OVER HERE... I'M #1... ANSWER ME NOW!!! Have to laugh at most of them or those that are just trying to re-invite their own understanding, not of what it really is. First off, if you have AT&T or another provider whose modem/router combo is the primary source of your internet, you MUST set that device in what's called Bridge mode or pass-through. That means the traffic will pass through it to your Synology router which will be the acting DNS (Communication and Traffic Router) for your service. Your Service Provider such as AT&T will not support you adding your own equipment and the Techs will surely play dumb because it's not their job to hook up and configure your 3rd party equipment. It's not Synology job to support your speed issues coming in through the providers equipment. So there's this tall tell that if one doesn't help me, surely the other will. They're 2 different entities that work together but not for us to get 100% of what we think we're entitled to have. The speeds you pay for are ALWAYS to be looked at as UP TO that speed. Speeds don't stay the same. Many factors will affect your speed. You phone don't need 1gig gong to it. It can't handle it. So it won't detect it. The 1 gig or whatever your speed you're paying for is the shared speed amongst all of your devices. As one device uses a block of that speed you have, it will affect the speed of other devices. The more the devices sharing, the less each device will get and it's ok as long as it's working. If your speeds are terrible, maybe look at whose downloading large sums of data affecting your speed. Otherwise, normal "legal" traffic usage with tons of devices should suffice. Ok, back to my review. Getting back on track... I have 2 RT6600ax routers. As I move through my house, my connection transitions to the other without interruption. I pay for up to 1gig. I'm getting through to the routher a speed of 987 pretty consistent when I check. Sometimes it'll drop to 950. We have over 30 devices. Smart home with several phones/tablets, handheld consoles when the grandkids and guest come over in addition to 3 gaming systems, 4 computers, and 5 TVs going at any given time and/or at the same time. There's a lot going on on my network. Synology handles them with ease. 2 are hardcore gamers. Ping and Speed are everything to them. There are times I may have to work from home. When I do, even with all of that traffic, as most who work from home knows (No one can be doing a lot or it'll affect calls and/or my work.) I don't have those issues. I've been happy with my RT660ax here. Just last year I purchased 2 additional for our second guest home. There, we have over 20 smart cameras around the property. It's out in the country where the fastest speed is only up to 25MB! It's also a smart home with about 40 something devices in all there. Synology handles all of those devices. It utilizes the shared speed control amongst all of those devices with that speed. I do have to admit, no gamers there. They hate it. Maybe in the future the speeds will get better but no router will make magic with speeds like that but what it will do is ease the pain and Synology RT6600ax does that. Lastly, as an update, yes, the signals show up as 6ghz aka WiFi 6. Also, it's very easy to manage your network on the go. It's really a powerful router. Some of my friends have switched to the same router as well since acknowledging my experience. You won't regret your purchase.
Review: Best in class prosumer router - This router is an upgrade from a Netgear Orbi AX4200 RBK753. That router is about 2x the cost, though it is a 1+2 satellite mesh system. I am a fairly advanced user who was looking for three things - 1. good speed and coverage, 2. parental controls, and 3. IoT lan separation support. The Netgear mesh system satisfied criterion 1, but was hopeless at (2) and (3). Parental controls are a subscription with Netgear and is pretty basic. There is also limited support for multiple networks and VLANs. And worst of all, the Netgear router interface was incredibly sluggish and frequently, the iOS app would not be able to find the router despite being on the same network. Before settling on the Synology RT6600ax, I also evaluated the Ubiquiti Dream Machine, which is also highly rated by the community. The problem with the DMP is the complexity of setup and overhead is much higher. You do need to setup the Wifi 6 access points separately and the UI is a lot more complex. It wasn't too difficult, but can be overwhelming for the average home user. The Synology RT6600ax is as simple and as complex as you want it to be. It is reasonably priced for a Triband Wifi 6 router. The coverage and speed are great. But where Synology really shines above the rest of the competition is in the software. The SRM software (v1.3.1 at the moment of writing) is incredibly intuitive to use and the router itself is very responsive. The parental controls are the best of any router I have tested, bar none, and completely free (this saves you at least $50/year alone in subscription fees on some competing systems). You can do the simple route of just specifying "Child" accounts and clicking a few options, or you can go down to fine-grained control of allowing only certain websites at certain times (very useful if you want to allow only, say a particular homework website during certain hours). Setting up separate SSIDs and VLANs for your IoT devices (I hope you are doing this!) requires just a few clicks. Most of the time was spent reconfiguring the many IoT devices to connect to the new SSID. Firewall setup is also as simple as it can be. The above are just some of the features that matter most to me personally. But there are other features that can be transformative to other home users. For those of you without a Network Attached Storage (NAS), this router comes with a USB port that you can connect an external storage and turn it into a simple networked file storage. It is not a complete replacement for a proper NAS (and Synology makes some of the best of those as well), but for those who do not have complicated needs, it is a great starting option. Finally, for those of you with sizable homes, two or more of these can be connected into a mesh system as needed. To summarize, this is the best router I have found for the prosumer. If you want to take a step up from the simple plug-and-go routers (or worse, the ISP-provided garbage) of the world, this router is a major step up. I have Synology NAS and now this router. I have every confidence they will continue to improve the already great software and add new capabilities to it.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works like SAP
*by R***R on July 17, 2024*

First off I read a lot of comments about the horror this was to set up. As someone who has taught networking at the PhD level and have networking certs, I thought how bad could it really be? Turns out, pretty bad only because of undocumented gotchas. First off, don't set this up on a mobile device. I could never get it to fully complete setup through my mobile. Even though it says you can. Second, even if you plan to use the 6600 in AP-mode and the software tells you all the ports including WAN will be bridged and that you can use any port, DO NOT BELIEVE THAT. Once I moved from lan to wan the process went alot smoother. Now that it is stood up this thing is a rock solid beast. The best way to describe this is if SAP engineers designed a router, this would be it. It is built for function and it does it very well. And just like SAP, F all on the UI/UX because it wasn't designed for you, it was designed for them. And it wouldn't surprise me if it occasionally throws out an error message in German too. Bottom line, it is great, but come into it ready to fight with it.
