Review On Edimax BR-6208AC Router

I have been using this device for 5 months and in the beginning, I like too much. But as time goes, it works very badly. Connection, not secure shows always. Disconnects automatically after some time of connection. Speed is not up to mark. 

I visited edimax.setup for setup, but the interface is confusing. The setup operation is also not easy as the Edimax team claims. I contacted the customer care support team, but they didn’t pick up my call. Then after many days of contacting them, they picked up my call but they didn’t reply to my exact question. 

They are blaming me that you surely dropped this device and demanding high money to fix this solution. Buying this device is still a nightmare for me. I suggest all the buyers not purchase this terrible product.
