Amped Wireless RTA15 High Power Dual Band AC  Wi-Fi Router

 

The good: The powerful Amped Wireless RTA15 router offers long Wi-Fi range, decent data speed, and a robust Web interface. The device is ready to work right out of the box.

The bad: Compared with similarly priced routers, the RTA15’s performance falls short, especially in terms of Wi-Fi signal stability.

The bottom line: The Amped Wireless RTA15 is a decent Wi-Fi router, but better firmware is needed for it to live up to its high cost and our expectation.

The RTA15 High Power Dual Band AC 700mW Wi-Fi router is the next step in Amped Wireless's quest for bringing great Wi-Fi range to its customers. The router packs even more power than the company's previous models and it's the first to support the 802.11ac Wi-Fi standard.
In my testing, it indeed offered very long range. Unfortunately the benefit of the large Wi-Fi coverage was, to some extent, canceled out by the signal's instability. The router's wireless data rates, though fast, were slower than those of similarly priced routers.
