Does everything a router does, plus access point, repeater, Ethernet bridge and client mode and more.
Weaknesses:
If you change mode of operation after changing WiFi settings, it will lock up the unit where you can no longer change anything. Hardware resets common. Complains about invalid region when the option is greyed out.
Netgear support either is too dumb to admit firmware fault or refuses to fix it.
Two units in a span of a year, and both have same bug.
Summary:
Make sure you know what you are setting, as once it is done, you may need to hardware reset this beast. Otherwise, it works like a charm!
