willthetech Posted October 12, 2020 Posted October 12, 2020 As the title says, just ordered my R2. I still have the R1, but honestly it felt sluggish and the no gigabit internet support had me put it away for over year now. hopefully I did not make a mistake again...I guess we will see.
Alias 1aB Posted October 13, 2020 Posted October 13, 2020 the R2 is so much better than the Netgear Xr450 I had at least for me. Plus I have everything in my house hardwired so the somewhat limited wifi connectivity of the R2 does not really affect me. And when i say limited, its more on the 2.4 Ghz band. And DumaOS 3.0 is so much better than 2.0.

I will have a dedicate router to do that (WAY better WIFI)...Just trying to make sure is not a R1 experience all over again. But it seems a lot of people are happy with the purchase...cant wait:)
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted October 13, 2020 Administrators Posted October 13, 2020 Thanks for the order and your continued support! It runs much smoother than the R1 and you'll be able to get much closer to your paid for speeds as well.
willthetech Posted October 15, 2020 Author Posted October 15, 2020 Got the R2 2 days after ordering. That's nuts...all of he way from the UK to the US. Very busy GUI, overwhelming at first. I will test during the next few days to get my final thoughts. I noticed that I turned off WIFI and guest WIFI (both 2.4Ghz 5.0Ghz), but still showing up as an SSID in my PC. Any Ideas? is this a bug...
