Just beware that once you hit around 40 devices connected via 2.4ghz/5ghz... some of the devices loose the ability to transfer data. I repeatedly had to disconnect and reconnect in order to connect to my network/internet. I'd guess 80% of the devices were IOT type devices, so transferred very little data... didn't matter.
Also, as others have mentioned, firmware hasn't been updated since 2019.
I really do like the antivirus/antimalware capability though.
I have this for half year. Very good router so far. My desktop connected to wi-fi doubled download speed (it yses 2.4ghz). All other devices at home use 5ghz networks without any issues. It works pretty stable ( rebooted it one or two times).
I bought the C4000 from Costco and loved it. So much that when I sold my house and left it behind I bought a refurb Archer A20 to replace it. The A20 does not work correctly at all and I did not notice until after the warranty ended. Googling indicates others with similar issues... dual band does not work, firmware breaking things, etc. On mine, 5ghz is inop even though the control panel indicates otherwise. It also says my 2.4ghz is operating on channel 161. Its a shame because when working it is a great router.
