I bought this router a few months ago partially based on this review and have regretted it ever since.

Decent hardware & signal

Unable to connect to internet on reboot/power outage; Requires complete reset reconfiguration

This router won't current work with Sky fibre due to the inability to pass the username and password to the modem. This is being worked on however.

Amazing router. Very easy to use and the SRM software to control this router is the best I have ever used. Also bought the AC 2600

Would've been a five star review if it was not for problems with the USB storage device. I tried to Western Digital external USB hard drives that were listed on the compatibility list and neither were detected.

Best known for its network-attached storage (NAS) product line, Synology enters the router market with its Router RT1900ac ($149.99), and it's an impressive debut. This reasonably priced dual-band model delivered speedy performance in our throughput tests and is equipped with a nice selection of I/O...

Strong 5GHz throughput performance in testing; Reasonably priced; Solid feature set

Middling file-transfer performance; 2.4GHz range could be better

Not your typical router: this 802.11ac gadget can also double as a NAS drive for sharing and downloading files. It's easy to use and well priced: here's our Synology RT1900ac review

For technology enthusiasts the name Synology is, aptly, synonymous with Network Attached Storage. The company has offered a string of well regarded NAS drives for many years. What it's not known for, however, is routers , but with the RT1900ac it's clearly looking to change that.

An easy to set up router with lots of advanced features, but performance is patchy

Synology is widely known for its NAS products and has now decided to enter the router market with the RT1900ac Wi-Fi router, supporting transfers up to a total of 1900 Mbps. A very promising product with an advanced OS, it is also quite affordably priced.

Synology is best known for its NAS products, which we regard very highly. Now it has entered the router market, which, given its networking expertise, makes perfect sense. The RT1900ac is what we'd call solid if unspectacular.
