Alien Router Out of Stock?
-
So, I'm really excited to get the new Alien Router. Any idea when it will be back in stock?
Thank you!
-
@kevin-sherrell right now
-
@kevin-sherrell It is back in stock: https://store.amplifi.com/products/amplifi-alien
-
Any idea when these may be back in stock again?
Thanks
-
@casey-roy When the get back in stock, they don't last long but usually we see them at least once a week right now. I suggest taking a quick look daily for right now.
-
Will they be available at Amazon.com again?
-
@ken-hill They will be made available on Amazon as soon as they receive stock.
-
@ui-jt Thanks for the info!
-
Seems like there in stock in the Amplifi store today!
-
@Ken-Hill aaaand just got on, looking for buy 3, and sold out again already. If they can't be kept in stock for even a day (and retailers not getting any), what's the roadmap here?
Frustrated personally I didn't get to place my order, sure - but also wondering what the plan is to have a steady supply chain?!
-
@Daniel-Osers Yeah what if you get a bad one, how long to replace it? Never was at Amazon either?
-
@DANIEL OSERS yeah, these are selling out super quick, I tried to get one in January. I'm surprised to see that there a couple on Ebay though.
-
I haven't seen any in stock in 2 weeks. What is going on? When can we expect these to be readily available? Any update would be helpful, at least an ETA would be nice.
-
@clanzerio No ETA for stock as off yet, please follow my threat and I will update it when we have more info on stocking.
-
@clanzerio if the devices are made in China, I have no idea if they are, then supply is going to be quite limited. Most other manufacturers, Apple for one, are having problems. Even if there is stock ready to go shipping out of China is limited right now.
-
@John-Pappas Understood - but the supply chain issues here have been going on for quite a while (there hasn't been consistent stock since the introduction) and competitors have no problem keeping in-stock to models with similar chipsets and supply chain components (Orbi Wifi-6 for example).
4-5 months is a long time in technology not to be able to ramp up sufficient stock to serve the store (not to mention Amazon and other resellers). 6Ghz will be 2021's theme.Some transparency as to the roadmap would be helpful. For example, I am holding out to purchase 3 units but they have to be 'in' by march 3rd or I'd be forced to look at Orbi or similar. I WANT to buy the Alien
- that's why ETAs are helpful
-
@Daniel-Osers I agree, definitely need to speed things up or else I will be forced to look at some other places with better customers service, restocking and last better Prices for the waiting.
-
@nxtlvlgaming the one on eBay will cost almost double the price and with no warranty or to said the least one have to be careful who you buy from through eBay.
-
@clanzerio I'm still waiting for the next restocking, no updates yet as in today's date 20 February 2020.
-
I'm in the same boat. I initially emailed the store on February 7th asking about availability and Daniel had no idea. It's been about 2 weeks and still nothing. I've never heard of, or had, this issue before. Hell, I ordered an exhaust for my racebike directly from Italy, found out it was backordered, and I still got it faster than this.
My Fios contract is up March 2nd and I'll be upgrading my internet and looking for a mesh setup. If I can't get this by then, I'll be looking elsewhere.
