USG Lite 60AX feedback as requested for device testers

Possu

Device itself nice and compact, very suitable for Home Office users, especially in organizations which already have their network infrastrucure based on Zyxel devices. Two 2.5GHz ethernet ports makes it also future-proof for increasing speeds on home internet connections. Configuration is as easy as on any Nebula-based device and does not require much effort to get up and running. Wifi 6 works fine as expected. The Ad Blocking feature is nice to have on gateway level, works there better than with browser add-ons which are often recognized by sites and then heavily nagged. It's a pity that it does not work for ads in video content in sites like Youtube or Redtube etc. I also find it somewhat restrictive that the ethernet ports can not be directly assigned to virtual interfaces, would make it a bit easier to separate devices allowed to access company network via VPN from those devices which are for personal use only or used by other family members. Other slight negative thing is the mechanical stability of the device when all six ports have ethernet cables connected, it has a tencency to tip backwards. But those are minor issues, overall a product that can be recommended.

Hi @Possu ,

Thank you for taking the time to provide your detailed feedback on the USG Lite 60AX!

Currently, our blocking system filters advertising categories based on website domain classifications in our database. It does not block pop-up advertisements that appear within websites.

Regarding the restriction on directly assigning Ethernet ports to virtual interfaces, we currently recommend using the Switch to implement VLAN segregation for subnet management.
