Works great, stays cool, no RFI Tech Level: high
Ownership: 1 week to 1 month
Pros: I am a radio amateur, and was looking for a router / firewall that would not cause interference with my radio equipment. The TZ-150 has been great in this regard, I’m guessing the metal case provides a good shield and prevents RFI. Also, the unit runs very cool, which should help it live a long life.
Setup was easy, although the supplied manual could have more technical detail. The SonicOS ...

Fast and Powerful Tech Level: high
Ownership: 1 month to 1 year
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Stable, fast, site-to-site VPN, QoS
Cons: No wireless; limited flexibility on firewall rules.
Other Thoughts: I recently configured two of these and found them ideal for site-to-site VPN to a SonicWall Pro 2040, although you cannot get very granular on rules unless you get a TZ170 with the Enhanced OS (much mor...

Good but no QoS inside VPNs Tech Level: high
Ownership: 1 month to 1 year
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: I will reconfirm everything I wrote in my "Fast and Powerful" review of these devices.
Cons: However, I have since learned that SonicWalls do not support QoS WITHIN a VPN, so if you're expecting your VoIP phone to get priority on your site-to-site VPN, you're out of luck.

They Make good products Tech Level: high

Pros: I have used sonicwall products in the past and I do like the ease of use and the detail you can achieve in the inspection of whats going on. The software is nice and if you want real detail use the kiwi software to recieve very detailed info.
Cons: They are like any other fruitbar in this area as to mean they always want money for any of their special features or addons....

2 TZ 150s Working Great Tech Level: high
Ownership: more than 1 year
Pros: Purchased two TZ 150s, one for my mother and one for my Aunt (located in different states), so that I have network-level VPN access for remote support. I also setup these two remote locations as remote backup sites so that I can store archive files on their PC hard drives (each have 500GB drives, partitioned and secured). VPN works great.
Cons: The GAV, ANTI SPYWARE AND IPS...

Good, but not for complex firewall rules Tech Level: somewhat high
Ownership: 1 month to 1 year
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Pretty much does what it's supposed to. I don't know of any other hardware devices for the money that have a whitelist-only URL filter.
Cons: Better not need more than 22 firewall rules. It ignores you if you try to enter more than that. According to a Sonicwall online forum reply, that's normal. If you need more rules, b...

Stay Away from Sonicwall Tech Level: high
Ownership: 1 month to 1 year
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Absolutely None!!
Cons: This is a terrible product. From day one you are hounded by Sonicwall to upgrade the warranty and subscription plans. The warranty is only for 30 days! What kind of a manufacturer only warranties their product for 30 Days? My guess is a manufacturer that does not have a reliable product to sell and ...
