  8. The majority of testing of this unit took place with it being simply a wireless gateway. It was tested for a few minutes acting as an actual router, and proved to be a very average broadband router.

    Tests on the range of the wireless capabilities showed first packet loss to start at approximately 500ft, with total packet loss and loss of connection being a little under 1500ft as promised. Speeds proved to be very near 10MBps in throughput tests.
