    I purchased this product after my old router died. I wanted a duel-band router that was capable of at least 300 mbps at 2.4 hertz. When I got home to instal it, I had issues using my smartphone to set it up; it was no where near as easy as the box made it out to be. We have it in the center of our small home, yet we do not get good reception in our bedroom. My we have also had issues with this router being unreliable, losing connection.

    I am not really savy when it comes to setting up electronics but this was easy. The instructions were easy to follow and I was up and running in no time. It can't handle more than 10 devices which is fine at this point but I might need to upgrade in a few years. I was told it would have better range than my old router but it doesn't. My son used to have no problem connecting in his room but has found he needs to be closer to the router sometimes.

    Replaced a D-Link that was constantly restarting. Almost a plug and play operation. We were back on line in 10 minutes. All wireless devices reconnected( I used the same network name and passphrase) and the wired devices only needed a restart. The dashboard is very flexible and I really like the feature of being able to schedule a device restart once a week at a time of your choosing. The unit has not dropped us once since the install. Would be nice to have a couple more lights on the front of the unit to tell status at a glance. And that is the worst I can say!

    First time using a Belkin product, I'm not a big fan of what they usually produce but this was cheaper than Netgear and I was restrained for financial reasons. Anyway, this product has been great though it has had some issues that I never have had with Netgear products, like the 5Ghz signal being stronger than the 2.4Ghz or their easy to use interface being a very basic web portal that is anything but easy. I'd go with Netgear over this since you have more control and they have a legit app for mobile devices and not some web portal.

    I just received the Belkin AC 1200 router and spent last night getting my equipment linked up to it. Fairly simple. You need the CD to install software so you can access the website to make any changes in your security settings. Dual Band 2.4 and 5.0 GHz plus Guest settings. The shape is fairly nice. A blue/purple glow from the front tells you it is working. The is very small WPS button below the status light that you press if you are trying to link a printer to the wireless access point. It is not very easy to see.

    Purchased 14 months ago, it has been a good wifi router. The ItelliStream feature would never work, the feature is suppose it to prioritize the traffic on the my network, but it would run for a long time until I cancelled, usually after 1 hr. It does handle the download speed of 293Mb that my ISP provides. The problem I am having now is that the router is "locking" up where the wifi is seen, but can not be logged into by anyone, including direct wired computers. I must unplug and replug back in to reset. This is happened 3 times in the last 4 days.

      Hi, TXTornados,

      The IntelliStream is expected to work once enabled. As for the setup page, you should be able to access it without restarting the router. To isolate this accordingly, please email us at [email protected] with your phone number and the link to this post so that we can get you over to our Senior Technicians.

    The fact that this Router sets you up with a standard port as well as a port for streaming media and gaming works wonderfully. Range could be a little better.

      Hi EStar,

      We appreciate your time in reviewing our product and providing your positive feedback. We suggest that you position the router away from windows, thick walls, and move it to the floor where you're most likely to use Wi-Fi. Adjusting the router’s wireless channel is also a good move to avoid possible interference in your network. Use the Wi-Fi analyzer app. It helps you to find a less crowded channel for your wireless router.

      For further assistance, feel free to email us at [email protected] with your contact details, location, and the link to this review for reference.

    This Belkin router works ok I guess. However, I have noticed that I don't get a good signal in my bedroom. I live in a 700 sq ft one bedroom apartment and I only use the wifi for my ps3, phone, and laptop. I have high speed internet (25MB) and it works very well when I am right in front of the router. For some reason when I step more than 20ft away from the router, the signal strength drops to almost nothing. I expected more from a dual-band 1200 series AC router.
