Hey guys,
So recently I purchased this little guy Cudy Dual Band WiFi 6 3000Mbps Gigabit Mesh Router | M3000_W (1-Pack)
[ It's a newer model that released near the end of Jan ]
And I'll just drop a quick little review because there wasn't much info out there when I was trying to read up about it.
INITIAL THOUGHTS:
So where I sleep is a little far from my router in the lounge, and my wifi signal was never the greatest - That's where this little guy comes in.
The packaging it came in was really nice, felt like a good quality product, everything was wrapped up nicely. Upon taking it out the box the router was extremely light, too light.
You can see through the air vents at the bottom and there isn't much going on inside the router lol.
Build quality i'd give it around a 7/10. Could be heavier.
PERFORMANCE:
The wifi coverage has been a huge upgrade from my Comtel supplied TP-Link , that thing was a piece of junk. All my household wifi gadgets connected easily, and my internet just feels a lot faster in general.
I now get full speed in my room , Youtube videos play much faster and my little google home doesn't have a noticeable lag anymore when the lady is talking to me.
I'm only on a 50/50 mbps fibre package but it's nice to have the full speed wherever I am, even outside in the yard.
INTERFACE:
Super easy to use - Everything is very easy to setup up and while being very simple it has quite a lot of features I haven't seen on other routers.
The router uses Cloudfare's DNS by default, and Googles as a backup.
Performance I'd give it a solid 10/10 [ FOR MY NEEDS ]
DO I RECOMMEND?
I would say yes, but maybe go for the cheaper one if you don't want to spend too much. I don't feel like there would be a huge difference.
I'll keep this updated as time goes on, thanks for reading.
