[QUOTE="HarborFront, post: 705057, member: 55987"] Nope I have not. In fact I moved from using ASUS RT-AC5300 to the Portal Router The reasons being Portal 1) has Dynamic Frequency Selection (DFS) for congestion-free surfing 2) has very much better privacy policy than Trend Micro. FYI, Trend Micro is collecting a lot of your personal info Yes, although the Portal Router's spec is not as high end as the ASUS RT-AC-5300 but the Portal Router is adequate to cover my whole house. Unfortunately, the Portal Router does not come with AV/AM and privacy compromise protection for IoT devices so I'll need a Smart Firewall and eBlocker to do that. I have already mentioned in my starting post that if you do have a high-end router with IoT protection built-in then you don't need a Smart Firewall [URL='https://portalwifi.com/']Portal WiFi - Home[/URL] [/QUOTE]
