Hi Anders,

I'm not really an apple router fan but I'm not saying they are bad or otherwise,
May be slightly out dated,

In saying that I used an airport express before getting my netgear nighthawk 
router 
I find it's interface great to use and accessible from my iPhone or iPad 
through the nighthawk app 
Very accessible with voiceover 
Oh and windows if you need it.

 They have a number of different devices,
Mine is an R8000 I think it is, I've kind of just ignored the model now as it's 
just sitting and working as it needs to.

 4 antenna 
4 ethernet pors on the back and a USB port on the front for connection of god 
knows what.
I've never used the USB for anything,

The device also has OpenVPN built in and very simple to use / setup for anyone 
that wishs to have a secure log in and connection back to your own home via VPN 

As I said, there is a range of nighthawk devices and the ones I looked at can 
do giga bit wired and ac wifi 
I rate them as a device to buy but really it's up to you.

If you had the money and it's avaible in swedan then I'd say look at the R9600  
I think it is which was the top of the line device when I was looking,
It is well over spec'd for new Zealand with WiFi AD 
And things that probably only a business would use.

Hope that helps and good luck.


Simon

Subject: New router or not?

Hi!
We’re getting fibre connection at 1000 Mbit here in my apartment and i want to 
make use of that as much as possible.
So i will be connecting my airport extreme to the new connection.
However i am wondering if the airport extreme is out of date as a good router 
and if i should get me a new one instead?
If i get a new router then support for OpenVpn is a must.
So i ask if someone here can give me some advice?
Thanks in advance.
Note that the interface for a new router of course has to be VoiceOver friendly.
The airport utility is one of the best i’ve seen so far.
I know that there  are routers with Unix interfaces, but any tips are welcome.

Thanks.
/A
