The worst there is, yes it has a stable connection, yes with a cable it reaches 1 gbps, but with a Wi-Fi connection, if you don't sit right next to it, the speed drops to half at a distance of 4 meters. I have spoken 3 times with OTE and explained that with a 500 connection I had the same Wi-Fi and Ethernet speed permanently, and even in an adjacent room over 10 meters, a steady 500 on all devices with Wi-Fi 6. In fact, when OTE remotely activated the 1 gbps connection, the previous router managed to reach 750 mbps consistently with Wi-Fi. Now with the new useless router, I have 150 mbps from 500 and 750, and their response is to play with the frequencies. I will communicate more with them; I fell for it just like the others in the comments. Never take this router, and its extender is laughable; my devices had a better connection directly to the router than with this one.
EDIT: 16/09/24 For anyone wondering after they send it from OTE, I solved my problem by buying a pair of TP-LINK Deco X50 v1 WiFi Mesh Network Access Point Wi-Fi 6 Dual Band (2.4 & 5GHz) in a Dual Kit. At a distance of over 10 meters, I download with an average of 600-850 mbps and upload with 100-150 mbps depending on the device. With a Gigabyte motherboard that has a built-in Wi-Fi antenna on the computer, I have almost 900 mbps wirelessly and 2 ping while browsing. In gaming, depending on the game, the server, and the device, I notice 25-60 ping. The best part is that I placed the second deco in its box because these numbers are from the deco that is plugged into the Fritz box, and it was better than getting a signal from a second deco in the room where I have my devices, thus allowing for real coverage over large distances and floors, which the router by itself and with its extender, without help on Wi-Fi, is laughable. Regarding the deco, +3 years warranty and an excellent mobile app to manage everything easily. Anyone with a cable will find it useful as it is without buying anything; otherwise, it is not worth downgrading the line. The Speedport Plus 2, which has the best Wi-Fi I have ever seen, may not work well at 1000 mbps, and the Wi-Fi of this Fritz is the worst I have ever seen. Conclusion: If they install you with this router and you work remotely, buy TP-Link Deco yesterday; otherwise, with an Ethernet cable, it does what it promises.
The worst... wireless... with 1 gbs... line... the WIFI performance at a distance of 3m... 250mbs.... Far away and disappointing. This router is problematic. I contacted EETT and after a document I sent to OTE, they downgraded my line to 500mbs... They gave me the speedport plus ii at a distance of 5m the WIFI gave 430mbs... conclusion... this model is useless. The Germans give us this in Greece... because they consider us third world... NEVER go for a 1gbs line. The law is clear... loss from your provider up to 20%... if companies tell you... "we do not guarantee the wifi speed... it is illegal towards the customer... The speed in fiber optic... is GUARANTEED.
This particular product is provided by COSMOTE for 1Gb fiber optic connections.
As an owner of a router from this company for several years and completely satisfied with both the quality and performance, especially with the 7490, I accepted the offer.
Compared to the ONT - NOKIA - and router, the fritzbox7490 measurements were: 938 download, 102 upload.
When the technician installed the 5530 on the fiber optic and we measured it, it showed 920 download, 100 upload!
Initially, the phone did not work and with the technician's intervention, the problem was resolved.
However, the router worked for about an hour and a half and then burned out!!
It was replaced by the technician with a new one, which now seems to not work with the DECT phone base.
Weak WI-FI, excessively heating up to 67-70 degrees constantly.
Of course, due to FritzOs capabilities, it has many features and in mesh networking it transfers everything (wi-fi, phone).
The conclusions are yours.
REVIEW / PRESENTATION / TIPS
Update: 11/16/2024
The schedule internet time per device has been integrated, meaning you can set what time the internet will turn on and off for each device. It's good if you want to set limits for your children, etc., from the parental controls section by creating a new profile.
***Three stars only for its poor WiFi, since it is AVM***
I have the same problem as many of you with the WiFi.
The technicians from Cosmote are facing the same issue.
With an ethernet cable, I am at 1048/104mbps max, with -13.2dbm max line noise. Extremely good, due to the good installation by the contractor since I was overseeing them during the work.
With WiFi at 998/102mbps in the area where the router is (5Ghz) at a distance of 2 meters. Every meter you go back, it drops dramatically. At 4-5 meters without obstacles, it reaches a max of 750mbps and so on.
In the 2 furthest rooms where I have another 2 computers (about 15-18 meters), with obstacles of 2-3 walls and closed doors, having the router on the other side of the house in a corner and not in a central location, and with Fritz! Repeater 1200AX I reach 350mbps/100 and 400mpbs/101 in 89 square meters with proper channel selection (manual).
As a router, it has incredibly many and useful features, but its WiFi is poor for a Fritz! router. It should ideally be combined with Fritz Repeater 1200AX Mesh.
Aside from the WiFi issue, the router is flawless with Ethernet connection, good materials, settings, and amazing capabilities. Temperature-wise, it is OK due to the frame construction.
Basic mistakes.
Never use powerlines on fiber optic.
The noise should not exceed -23dbm.
An excellent fiber optic connection ranges from -13 to -16dbm
(this is influenced by the work done as well as the cabinet).
The latest router upgrade is version v8.00, make sure to do it. If you also have the Repeater 1200AX, upgrade that as well.
If the router does not automatically upgrade, download the manual files from AVM's FTP address.
The positive fact is that there will be future upgrades - although the WiFi issue will not be fixed and the reason is the 2 internal WiFi cables - I believe they are routed incorrectly over the board (version 2 - like the one provided by Cosmote). There is a solution, and if you search on YouTube, you can change the routing of the 2 cables or even better, connect 2 or 4 external antennas to the board - it's not difficult for someone who is knowledgeable.
If you want the absolute, buy a decent 2 or 3 band MESH package, but personally, I don't want to suggest a new purchase where you will spend an additional up to €200 on something decent.
Pilot testing at 2000mbps went excellently (photo) with an ethernet cat6 cable.
There is still no commercial availability of 2000mbs/200 for individuals, but we might expect it in the second quarter of 2025. I can't mention anything else!
6 useful TIPS to improve your connection with this specific router.
1) Make sure the router is located in a central spot......"as much as possible" if feasible and not in a corner. If it's not in a central location or the square footage is large, you will need a Mesh Repeater "yesterday".
2) Same SSID name for 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz SOS!
3) "Automatic" WiFi channel finding as suggested by AVM. Find the channels yourself from the router settings to determine which are the ideal channels for 2.4 and 5Ghz. I have photos here in the review for finding better channels as well as some main settings for WiFi.
4) Purchase "Definitely" Mesh Repeater - the Fritz! 1200AX from AVM is quite good (there are better ones, of course). The connection of the repeater must be made at a very close distance to the router, meaning in the same room SOS! Once connected, we take it out and place it in the dead zone we want.
5) For better performance and to avoid disconnections due to temperatures since the SFP Module reaches 75-77c without air conditioning during the summer - buy a Cooling Pad for laptops and place the router on top. It reduces the temperature by up to 20 degrees. You will easily get it down to 49c, having over 25 active connected devices at a cost of 10-12€.
An excellent and honest cooling pad is this one from Powertech. I have also uploaded a video.

6) Upgrade it yourself or with the help of a specialist with 2 or even 4 very enhanced external antennas up to the extension of the antennas from an independent German store that deals only with FritZ....google it and you will find it.

I was given this by Cosmote with the fiber 1gbps with LAN, I consistently get over 970mbps, and with WiFi it goes from 500mbps to 800mbps
In Ethernet mode, it works perfectly without any issues. However, when it comes to wifi, it's a disaster. It barely reaches 500. I switched from Cosmote to Inalan with 1000/1000, and the router they gave me (ZTE F6600P) on the same phone line provides 940/600.
COSMOTE provided me with the 1000 Mbps connection, it is plug and play... the speed on LAN is consistently at 940 down and 103 up. I gave it 4 stars for the Wi-Fi, which reaches up to 850 down and 103 up, not often, usually it is above 500 down but up to a maximum of 600. The up speed is consistently at 103.
I got it through OTE after upgrading to a 200Mbps fiber optic line. Being the owner of multiple fritz models for the past 15 years, I have been completely satisfied with their device stability, although they are sensitive to power fluctuations.
However, my experience with this specific router has been terrible for the past month. The router syncs close to the nominal speed (970 up / 97 down) and the LAN connections work normally at high speeds (with minimal losses due to wiring).
But the WiFi performance is abysmal!
The router was placed in the exact same spot where I had the old router, the well-known Chinese speedport from Cosmote, which I must note was reliable. The wireless speeds it provided, even when you were next to the router, did not exceed 500 up / 100 down.
If you move 5-6 meters away (in a straight line), the speeds drop to 100/70, and if you go to the next room, even lower.
The worst part is the incredible instability of the WiFi. In areas where you have good speed, it can suddenly become extremely slow to the point of having no internet connection at all.
Things get even worse in terms of stability as soon as the repeater from the same company, included in the OTE package, is connected. We get frustrated and unplug it from the socket.
We have tried countless tests to figure out what the problem is. We moved the router several meters away from a PC, which OTE suggested might be causing interference (in the same spot where a cheap Chinese router worked flawlessly, just 1.5 meters away from the PC for years).
We tried changing networks, measured the other networks operating nearby, basically did everything that can be done in these situations.
The company's response was for us to set up a mesh network with cones that would boost the signal and block other signals, in other words, spend around €400 to solve the weaknesses of this specific router.
It is unthinkable for it not to be able to function effectively in an 80 square meter, three-room space, with the router placed right in the middle.
This router was the reason we chose the 1000Mbps line, but it turned out to be a big disappointment. We have asked OTE to solve the problem, hoping that we simply received a faulty product - it happens sometimes - but from the responses we received, we understand that... this is how (doesn't) work this particular model.
For those of you planning to get it, wait until there are more user experiences. For now, it doesn't seem to resemble any of the fritz models I have had so far.
At €230, no, it's not worth it.
At €180-190, it's just fine.
I got it because I have a gigabit line and wanted to take advantage of the 2.5 LAN.
The settings were easy and quick.
Speed: 1030 Mbps download, 105 Mbps upload.
Be careful because it doesn't take the standard optical fiber plug but a thinner one, and if your provider didn't install a socket for you, it won't work.
WiFi at 5G, at a distance of 2 meters, gives me 500 Mbps.
Since I see it in other comments, don't expect WiFi with 600, 700, 800 Mbps!!!
Update: 10/10/24
Because I see many complaining about the speed, kids, don't expect 1000 Mbps on your WiFi, COME ON!!!!
Only with a cable.
I've set up a new network with WiFi 7; I might see 1000 on WiFi, but at the first wall, bye-bye!
Relax a bit; in the end, it's your investment to create a fast network in YOUR SPACE!!!!
The well-known router that people give for the 1Gbps connection... excellent for professional use, good for home use. It has some drawbacks, though, such as not being able to create multiple SSIDs and not being able to have different passwords for the 2.4 and 5 frequencies. Another drawback is that it connects to the ax configuration (WiFi 6) but does not have a plethora of bandwidth options to choose from, meaning it connects to limited bandwidth where the speed is slower compared to WiFi 5, meaning it's a hit or miss
The worst thing, I got it for free from OTE with a 1gb connection; with a cable, it reaches 1gb, with WIFI 300 FAR AWAY!!
1000 with Ethernet but nothing with Wi-Fi..... at 2 meters not even 500.....
