It has been a while since I reviewed any Zyxel Nebula devices, but for the past few years, they have been the main cloud-managed networking ecosystem I have used, though I have flip-flopped between this, EnGenius, Netgear Insight and Ubiquiti. The Zyxel SCR 50AXE is the latest product that works with Nebula, and it is…
I recently reviewed the EnGenius ESG510 dual WAN gateway, which has a USB port for 4G cellular backup. Eager to test this functionality, I bought the Huawei E3372-325 4G dongle from Amazon, which appears to be the best-reviewed option on the site and was quite affordable at £40. Things didn’t go quite to plan, but…
Many people nowadays are reliant on Internet connectivity for their daily lives. For me, my entire career relies on the Internet, I do most of my shopping on it, and entertainment like gaming and watching TV is now dependent on it. The UK is finally making some good progress with rolling out FTTP, and gigabit…
Last year I reviewed the amazing but extraordinarily expensive Netgear Orbi RBKE963. It is the first and only quad-band WiFi 6E mesh system on the market (there are some quad-band routers) and therefore offers the best performance compared to anything else out there. Netgear is now launching the Orbi 960 router part of the system…
![EnGenius ESG510 Review – Cloud Managed Dual SD-WAN Gateway [Gateway5 4mG]](https://mightygadget.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/EnGenius-ESG510-Cloud-SD-WAN-Gateway-Review-Feature-768x474.jpg "EnGenius ESG510 Cloud SD WAN Gateway Review Feature")
EnGenius has launched its first range of SD-WAN gateways allowing buyers to have a completely cloud-managed network with EnGenius. The ESG510 is the most affordable option currently available that is ideal for small businesses. This SD-WAN Security Gateway is powered by a Quad-Core 1.6GHz Intel ATOM E3940 process, and it is equipped with dual-WAN 2.5GbE,…
TerraMaster is on a roll with launching new NAS devices recently. The new U8-450 looks impressive, being an 8-bay rackmount unit powered by the efficient Atom C3558R Quad-core 2.4GHz CPU and paired with 8GB RAM DDR4 (expandable up to 32GB). One of the highlights for me is the inclusion of dual SFP+ 10Gb Ethernet Ports,…
I cover a lot of networking products and have reviewed many excellent mesh WiFi systems, routers, access points and switches. Most of my content is geared towards home users, and this will overlap with small business users, SOHO and prosumers. I have covered a lot of excellent business-orientated products that work well for larger networks,…
Last year I reviewed the excellent FRITZ!Box 4060 tri-band WiFi 6 router and its companion FRITZ!Repeater 6000 tri-band mesh repeater. Later in the year, AVM launched the more affordable FRITZ!Repeater 3000 AX, which is what I am reviewing today. This is also a tri-band WiFi 6 repeater but cuts down on some of the specs…
Multi-gig networking has finally started to go mainstream. Many mid to high-end motherboards now have 2.5GbE, there are few affordable multi-gig switches and thanks to Wi-Fi 6E, we are beginning to see many routers and access points use 2.5GbE or higher. Once Wi-Fi 7 gains traction, real-world multi-gig Wi-Fi will be easily achievable. Even Internet…
The Nighthawk A8000 was announced late last year but has only just become available in the UK. This is the first official WiFi 6E USB adaptor to launch in the Western market and the easiest way to add the latest WiFi 6E tech to your desktop or laptop. A USB dongle isn’t my first choice…
Today, TerraMaster has announced a new affordable NAS that will appeal to small businesses. The TerraMaster U4-423 is a four-bay NAS, but rather than the desktop-style NAS products I have reviewed from them in the past, this is a rackmount NAS. It weighs just 3.2kg without drives and occupies just one rack unit being 40mm…
The Nest WiFi Pro was announced back in October 2022. Google chose to skip WiFi 6 and jump straight to WiFi 6E, giving this router the new 6GHz band, which provides superior throughput for short range connectivity. Like the older Nest routers, this works as a mesh system and can be paired with other Nest WiFi…
