Admin User Interface
This Buffalo admin user interface is extremely fast at loading as there aren’t any fancy graphics or flash content attached. The dull information architecture is confusing and takes time to get used to it. The user interface shows many complicated technical terms which people in general wouldn’t be able to understand without certain level of computer based education while Buffalo is targeting consumers of all class. You might need to Google the product and read some articles first before using it.
Speed Test
The router can support 10/100Mbps on LAN/ WAN. So, large file transferring could take a while. The speed on LAN to LAN is satisfying as the maximum speed goes up to 100Mbps. When it comes to Wi-Fi, the speed is acceptable for 1/5 of the price costing for the Cisco Linksys EA4500, when the Buffalo router cover up to 50% of what the Cisco router delivers.
Signal Test
The tall antennas might fool you. If there are multiple walls between the user device and router, the acquired signal strength might be weak.
Product Summary
Pros:
- Low costing
- Decent data speed for LAN and wireless networks
Cons:
- Weak wireless signal
- Comes without Gigabit Ethernet support
- User Interface is too technical to operate
