Sorry, don't know about that stuff but I do know that this router will prioritize the connection to my xbox and you can monitor every device on your network from your PC. No more lag on gaming. No problems with this router.

I haven't really encountered any attempts at DDOS to answer that, but I do know there is a plethora of options for setting up a VPN. There are options within the software (provided you keep it up to date, the original shipped firmware was buggy) to specifically subnet for the VPN based on MAC address and allow the rest to be open. This allows for good control over bandwidth management if you decide not to use the built in bandwidth management software.

It has a guest access which I have turned off. I had to look to confirm it has 2 USB ports because I don't use them. Remember a router is a relatively slow computer so why use what little computing it has to deal with this stuff. We found that by passing our VPN through to a computer rather than letting the router handle it, our speed was much much faster. I think the same would apply here.

Sorry, not sure what type of security you're looking for but the ISP should provide that. I'm not aware of any security features and nothing mentioned in the owners manual.

For maximum network security I would NOT open any ports on your router. A safer way to do it would to use a VPN enabled router and then VPN in to your home network. With this setup just use the App as you wold if you were a home. You will need some Internet "savy" though.

If the router has up to date software you should be able to load it without to many problems.I bought one the software was not current so I had to contact their help staff. They had me up and running within a half hour.

1. Yes. Not sure if there is a limit, we have at least 8 VPN clients connected and all is well. I think you can run as many clients as you wish as long as you don't run out of CPU or memory. Mind you, you'll need to do a lot of reading to get a VPN going, this router supports many VPN schemes and nothing is preconfigured for you.2. Yes and yes.

Yes, very limited though and in general this machine has had significant issues communicating with my computers on the network. If I could get rid of it, I would. They also offer no support. I would NOT buy this again.

yes, disable dhcp, and don't use the wan port, make all connections (to main router & to connected devices) using the lan ports. also i advise giving this (access point) a specific ip address, so you can connect to it easily to reconfigure etc.

Over VPN is 16mbps or 10 depending on IPsec or SSL VPN. the latest firmware will drop it down a little more but add in VLAN support

Correct. The configuration is a bit complicated, but it's a fantastic router with great features if you know how to set it up.

Yes it can. But you will be able to locate it once it goes online. Make sure to setup security options though. Or download androiod device manager or avg free.

May have to Google that. I have a security system that it works through so they will need some sort of a modem or something. Sorry I can't be of more help.

I am going to say yes even though I have no used it as a server. I am using it for access and it works great. I have no problems connecting to multiple VPN clients and secure connections.....and it is very fast and dependable --- rarely drops connections.

I don't think so, but I could be wrong. I'm only using it as a VPN between the house and a location in the US to mask my IP.

I would not buy this one. I replaced mine with a TP-Link router and it is a way better router and really easy to connect to. I left feed back on the one I bought to.Have a nice dayTed
