Synology routers are a powerful wireless router for homes and small offices seeking to understand, control, and secure their network.

"If you're moving from a device like the AirPort Extreme, then I recommend considering the Synology RT2600ac. Not only should its wireless tech serve you well into the foreseeable future, but it's also extremely easy to use thanks to SRM and the DS router app."

Notes: RT2600ac in February 2017. Two or more connections must be established. Tested in an octoBox anechoic chamber using a 2x2 client and IxChariot as the test program. Actual data throughput and range may vary under different network conditions and environments. The precise roaming behavior is controlled by client devices. Some clients might experience a short connection drop or be "sticky" to an existing AP. Synology SSL VPN is compatible with multiple operation systems, including Windows, macOS, Ubuntu, iOS, and Android. Access for one concurrent account is available for free for selected VPN features: Synology SSL VPN, WebVPN, and SSTP. Client VPN Access License is available to add more concurrent accounts. Functions including L2TP/IPsec, OpenVPN, PPTP, and management features are available without additional charge.
