Netis WF2415 300Mbit Wireless N Gigabit Router Review

Introduction

Today I’m taking a look at the Netis WF2415 300Mbps Wireless N Gigabit Router. A simple approach, but one that looks like it offers anything you could want in a normal home.

The Netis WF2415 offers wireless N speeds up to 300Mbps as well as full Gigabit transfer speeds on all RJ45 ports, including the WAN port. It also has a WPS button for ease of use and connecting your wireless devices to your network.

Four Gigabit LAN ports should be enough at most times and it’s rare to see more. The WF2415 can act in a variety of modes such as AP, WDS, AP+WDS, Client and Repeater; this makes it pretty much universally usable. The mounting system allows you to hang the router in any direction. A simple but clever approach and one that works each time. The two 5dBi high gain antennas are fixed and can’t be removed or replaced – at least not easily.

Inside the router, we find a Realtek RTL8198 SoC processor specifically designed for use with routing as well as the Realtek RTL8192CE highly integrated single-chip MIMO (Multiple In, Multiple Out) Wireless LAN (WLAN) solution.

While nothing of this blows our mind, it sounds like a solid choice in a basic router – one that could easily satisfy the needs of most people.
