Ability to disable VPN per device
The Linksys WRT1200AC Dual Band Gigabit Wi-Fi Router delivers excellent performance
Especially as a network storage server. The router has an intuitive Web interface and lets you manage your home network remotely
The editors didn't like
Tied to one VPN
Warranty is void when router is flashed
The router is very expensive for one that supports only midtier Wi-Fi specifications. Its network storage feature doesn't work with Apple's Time Machine backup

Bundling a VPN service with a customisable router appears to be a no-brainer as they both target the same audience and in this particular case, the WRT 1200AC and ExpressVPN make a great pair...

Comparisons are difficult especially as I have not reviewed an AC1200 before – I tend to go straight for the top!I think there is a place for the WRT especially as an open source router as it has few competitors.However, Linksys also make an AC1200 smart...

The WRT1200AC is just way too expensive for a second-tier 802.11ac router....
While the WRT1200AC isn't the highest performing routing solution on the market, it does perform quite well when compared to other AC1200 solutions. While we haven't seen many AC1200 routers come through the lab here at TweakTown, with the Amped Wireless...
Very good performance, Good download speeds on LAN, 2.4GHz and 5GHz, ExpressVPN built-in, Decent VPN speeds
None that I can think of,
The aesthetics of the Linksys WRT 1200 AC router may not be to everyone's tastes, but if you're after an affordable, high performance AC router that supports ExpressVPN natively, then why not consider it.Due to the fact that the ExpressVPN account setting...

Supports non WDS bridging and repeating, Wowza! storage performance
Expensive, Smaller feature set than other topend routers
In all, the WRT1200AC deserves its #2 rank, and might even have edged into #1 had TP-LINK's Archer C5 been a true AC1200 class router. It's kind of ironic that Linksys had its own technique come back to bite them. The WRT1200AC is actually a pretty good r...
