ER707-M2 router provides dual 2.5 Gbps LAN ports and multiple WAN options to support high-speed networking in dense environments such as retail stores, hotels, offices, and home workplaces. It integrates up to six WAN ports (SFP and RJ45) plus a USB 2.0 port for mobile broadband backup, supports a variety of VPN protocols and a hardware VPN engine, and is compatible with Omada SDN for centralized cloud management. The device also includes user access controls, captive portal authentication, and can be managed locally through the web UI or remotely via the Omada app.

Advantages

Dual 2.5 Gbps ports deliver increased local throughput for bandwidth-intensive tasks and multiple users. Six WAN ports with SFP/RJ45 support and a USB WAN option provide flexible and redundant internet access, while multi-WAN load balancing improves utilization across lines. Built-in support for SSL, GRE, IPSec, PPTP and L2TP plus a hardware VPN engine enhances secure remote connectivity and VPN performance. Integration with Omada SDN enables centralized cloud management, and the Omada app offers guided setup and ongoing monitoring from mobile devices. Access control features including IP/MAC/URL filtering, ACL and captive portal allow precise management of user permissions and network resources.
