    New Synology Router arrival soon?

    I was thinking of the same thing. I'm interested in if they will release 1.3 or 2.0 and what new features will be added or improved to make 2600 and 2200 better.

    Fingbox Review

    I am looking into the Fingbox myself. Currently, I am using a Synology 2600 router which doesn't provide any client notifications. I like this router but doesn't provide any notification when a client attempts to join or when a client is online. I have a few questions about the Fingbox. 1...

    Asus ac3200 Remove Clients

    Well, I have moved on to a Synology router which is better than Asus 3200. That is my opinion. I don't use Asus routers anymore.

    Netflix and ATV Connection

    Yes, the iPad and ATV are in the same room. I am on 2.4 for both devices. Yes, I do mean static IP. I wasn't sure if assigning the ATV a static IP bears any difference or not. I didn't think so. Again, if I could wire the ATV I would but right now it is not an option.

    Netflix and ATV Connection

    I have an ATV 3g and a Synology router. The router is located in the next room. I am using Wifi. Recently, I tried to watch a movie on Netflix. I started to watch the movie and within about 20 minutes, the movie started to buffer. I expect this type of behavior on Kodi and Amazon Fire Stick but...

    Asus 68u DDNS Slow

    Just to further explain this. At work, if I use Safari or Chrome, I enter https://noname.asuscomm.com:8443, there is a delay for the Admin interface to appear. Once I login, there is another delay before the landing page comes up. If I click between categories/settings, there is more delay...

    Asus 68u DDNS Slow

    I have a 68u running 380_7378 stock firmware. I have DDNS configured for remote access to the router. The access is very slow. I have tried Safari and Chrome. I have deleted the cache and everything seems to move in slow motion. There is a 5 minute delay just moving between categories and...

    RT2600ac Block Sites

    Forgive me for asking a fundemental question, does Synology RT2600ac router block both HTTP and HTTPs sites? For example, if I wanted to block Netflix or Youtube on this router, I want to make sure these sites are completely blocked. On a Linksys and Asus router, you can ONLY block either HTTP...

    Synology DS Router App

    Last night, I fired up the Synology rt2600 for the first time. I got the thing configured and after I connected a few devices to it, I was playing around with the DS Router app. I was looking at the settings and poking around, I was surprised on how simple it was and I thought it was lacking...

    Considering a Synology Router

    Thanks for the information and taking the time to provide screenshots. I appreciate it. Looking at the pictures, I don't see anything that grabs me or stands out as a feature. I understand RT2600 blocks HTTP and HTTPs. Is that true? How does the Google Safe Search work with this router and...

    Considering a Synology Router

    Thanks for the replies. I was simply asking about the Synology RT2600 router and its features. Since Linksys is no longer releasing new firmware for the 1900ac, I thought I would try a new router. Again, I have tried Netgear r8000, Asus rt68u and a crappy Homehalo model. I have tried Asus...

    Considering a Synology Router

    I am new to Synology products. I want to find out if Synology router would be good for me to buy. Currently, I am using the Linksys 1900ac router and I have tried Asus 68u, Netgear r8000 and Homehalo routers. Homehalo sucks and is made for the non technical user. Asus is ok and provides a lot...

    Time Schedule and Blocking Sites

    I am trying out the Nighthawk R8000 router and I am comparing its features to Linksys and Asus routers. The router has the latest firmware version. I have a few questions about using the Nighthawk router. I am, more less, confused about some of the features such as time scheduling and blocking...

    Linksys Updates Smart Wi-Fi App...Finally!

    Trust me, I am not holding on to anything, well life but not my breathe. That is my biggest complaint, among other things, that I have with Linksys and/or Belkin. They are very slow to release new firmware versions and new features. Do they not have programmers working for them? I know Asus...

    Linksys Updates Smart Wi-Fi App...Finally!

    This newer version supports the EA9500 router? This is good news but how about Linksys updates the overall management of the routers. For example, add new features to parental controls. Please update bandwidth usage. Maybe add web history so you can see which computer and wireless device is...
