## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can you use a range extender with this device?**
A: It is super easy to add a Synology MR2200 (about $100 on Amazon) as an additional access point, with either a wireless or wired backhaul.  The advantage is that your mbps isn't cut in half as it is with range extenders, and you are managing the network as one mesh system.   

 I currently run the RT2600ac as a mesh system with two additional MR2200s as access points.  One MR2200 connected wirelessly with 350mbps connection.  The other is connected via wire to a concrete garage with 980mbps connection.

**Q: Can this router handle plex streaming over wifi on 4 tv's at the same time?**
A: I use it on to stream Plex and Netflix on 5 separate devices at the same time, but have combined this router with Synology's MESH network devices. Works like a charm in a 3,000 sqf house on 2 separate floors.

**Q: Looking for a secure and inexpensive vpn as well as firewall. anyone using this for a small office group vpn? easy to self configure?**
A: Secure, VPN, Firewall.  This device does all three but it really depends on the needs of those three topics.  Synology updates their firmwares often to mitigate security issues, you can check their updates here in their release notes: ( https://www.synology.com/en-global/releaseNote/RT2600ac#ver_7779-1 ).  This is something you don't see often with other router manufacturers.  I suggest going thru their website to see if it meets your needs.  

As for "inexpensive", this is very subjective word but considering the length of time they support their products with firmware updates, and the consistency of their updates, I do believe this to be "inexpensive".

As for myself, after owning other brand name routers (D-Link, TP-Link, Asus, and Netgear), and changing every year because of problems, I'm definitely sticking with Synology.

**Q: I have a 3800 sq ft 2-story house (1900 sq ft up and down). Will this router come with a range big enough to cover the whole house?**
A: It may work, but that's a pretty large place. I'd really be looking at something like an Eero.  A Mesh type Wifi Network.  This is exactly what they are designed for.

There's a lot of factors that go into how good your signal will be in the place you live.   Eero and these other MESH systems generally have an app that you run on your Smartphone to help you place these things in the best locations.  Eero generally comes with 3 units.  1 is the main unit that the cable modem or DSL modem would plug into, and then the 2 remote units.  It'll have you walk around your house to figure out the best location for the other 2 units.  You don't want to use a Wifi Extender.  That's old tech and in effect cut your Wifi speed in half.   1900 sq feet for just 1 story is almost pushing it for a single router.

I am a fan of Synology equipment and this router did not dissappoint me. It was very easy to set up (alongside my VirginMedia Hub 3 modem) and configuring it is simple.

    Performance Boost
  

*by M***. on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 7 October 2019*

Replaced ageing router with the RT2600AC (already have one of their NAS boxes), coverage and speed around the house is a lot better and some 3 to 5 times faster, setup  is very comprehansive and the VPN into the router is plus. Have only had it a month now but extremely pleased and consider it good value for the price tag.
