Router Limits

Bark Technologies acquired Router Limits at the start of 2020. The Router Limits app and site stopped being supported on March 31, 2023.

The good news is that Bark has taken Router Limits’ technology into the Bark platform and made groundbreaking updates to it — resulting in a stellar product called the Bark Home. We encourage all previous Router Limits users to switch over to Bark.
