It can however you may need to update the firmware out of the box so it has support for VLAN 10 on PPPoE.

Thanks Mike, any idea of speed tests using Spark Fibre Max? currently my Linksys EA-9500 gives me 955 Mbps down and 435 Mbps up

That is doing a damn fine job then!

It can do Gigabit speeds totally fine without any stress. Is a great router.

Cable has great speeds, but wi-fi not the best due to concreate ceilings, walls and floor 

Don't buy a Dream Machine, run some cabling and install an Access Point. There's no router that's going to suddenly make Concrete go away.

Sorry, I was not precise in my last reply.

I have a Linksys EA-9500 in the lounge with a LAN cable run to the back bedroom into a PC with POE switch running 4 Axis cameras

Wi-Fi is configured and a good connection in the lounge but moving to the back bedrooms Wi-Fi drops by around 70% while doing speed tests

I have installed a UniFi Pro access point cabled to the router in the lounge and configured, so now great speeds, however disabling the Wi-Fi on the Linksys, speeds in the Lounge are reversed, I was going to get another UniFi Pro Access Point for the lounge but thought the Dream Machine would be better to replace the Linksys?

how are devices still coming out in nz without firmware that supports VLAN 10 PPPoE out of the box....

I thought the same thing, but Mike said "may need"

To confuse consumers

I agree it isn't going to make the concrete go away but disagree with your statement to not buy. The Dream Machine will offer better all-around routing performance than the OP's previous router with multiple devices. We're not talking about synthetic speedtests here - we're talking about downloading with multiple connections on multiple devices and the router being able to handle all these connections at once. Plus, it provides the ability to easily add access points in other places and have them all managed from a central place. It is quite an upgrade no matter how you look at it.

Yes - "May need" is the word here. Basically the first firmwares didn't have VLAN 10 in the setup wizard making it impossible to proceed. Ubiquiti added this very shortly after. It all comes down to the out of box firmware.

I've set up quite a few of these and some have had the borked firmware but others have not. The one I set up a week ago was totally fine (new stock at Go Wireless).

Not all ISPs require VLAN 10, right?

Correct. There are some that don't need it but most do.

I know that Bigpipe needs VLAN set to off
