[QUOTE="AndreiP, post: 843417, member: 79748"] I apologise for the late reply; I've been meaning for some time now to post an update here, on the community. The first batch of the Avira SafeThings router was a success, although in very limited supply. It was a first test for us, to see if there's a market for such a product. The feedback we've gotten was both solid and vast; there's a good portion of pride we've took in our results, but also sides where we need to do better have surfaced. Where we're doing great - that's security, as that's what we've been doing for so many years now. That's where our team owns knowledge, and our innovative approaches to apply security for IoT have proved to work. Where we needed to improve - that's hardware. As much as we strive to provide a strong suite of security and privacy features on a gateway, users will still demand top-notch networking capabilities from a box (mesh, hi-performance platform, latency booster, apps ecosystem). And that is totally normal. This is why we have partnered with TP-Link - the global leader in networking devices - to provide a complete product for securing the smart homes.
