 "Zyxel router not up to the job" 2009-02-05
By Fabrizio Della Corte (Lugano, Switzerland)
I recently purchased the X550NH router from Amazon because of the following additional features that my current Draft N Zyxel router did not have:

-802.11 n (v2.0)

-GLAN ports (4 LAN + 1 WAN)

-External high gain designer antenna

-Scheduled WLAN on/off

-VPN tunneling



I have other ZyXEL devices including an NBG-415N router that I was planning to replace with this X550NH. I also own a DSL_ modem and a VOIP box from ZyXEL. I am giving it only two stars because the router is not functioning as it should.



Benefits:

-The design & size (looks good and does not take much space)

-Nice the external high gain antenna



Shortcomings:

-The admin GUI is much better with the older device (NBG-415N). The X550NH does not offer a help screen and has fewer options.

-It appears to be VERY slow (slow response time for the management web interface as well as the navigating the Web)

-PC disconnects frequently from router, even though signal strength seems at max (i.e. I need to refresh web pages often).

-No updated firmware available
