Finally! I am online without interruption
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This router is perfect! I have had problems getting and staying online for years. However, since I set up the Linksys EA6900 AC1900 Dual-Band Smart Router, I have had no problems at all, even when streaming movies.

Very good signal and range
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I needed a new wireless router to help get the signal through the 1940 plaster walls of my condo. This router not only gets the signal through the walls, but also reaches outside. Now I can enjoy the sun and surft too!

Easy and Great
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This was easy to set up and has worked great. I love it! I had bought a different brand, (not a cheap one) but it never worked properly. I'm glad I spent the few extra dollars - it is worth it. No problems anymore.

Great range, far better than my old router
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The range is great, easily hits whole house and even my garage. The setup and router interface is very easy and intuitive. The only con I have noticed is on occasion my network speeds get slow. The data rate itself stays high but it takes a while for pages to respond, once they do it goes fine. I have bypassed the router and plugged straight to the modem and the problem goes away. But it is only intermittent so I took off only one star.

perfect all in one unit
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was going to buy a dual band router and wifi extender separately until the best buy associate asked me if I needed help. I explained what I was looking for and he suggested this product. Without going over the $200 range to the really expensive units this unit was on sale and he gave me feedback and suggested this unit. Great advice since this unit has done everything I need. We still find that he we are on 2 computers and cell phones in the same room that they are still a little slower than we would like but overall very happy with this unit and would highly suggest. Bonus was try and find it on sale.

Easy setup, strong coverage
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great router. Solved signal strength issues such that the limiting signal was the cable company. Upon inquiry the cable company lowered cost per month by $50 per month and increased throughput by almost 10x.

What we needed

I love this wireless router.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It works great. Very fast and has a long range. It's in my living room and I can now use my iPad way out in my back yard, also I never have an issue with buffering when watching Netflix or Amazon Instant Video. This router is more expensive than the others but worth it. You get what you pay for. I cancelled cable tv so everything my husband and I watch is on the internet now. We can each watch a show in different rooms and never have a problem with it running slow. Love it!

too soon to know
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.finally installed router less than a week ago. Supposed to give me more power against the competitive wireless forces around me. So far i have still lost wifi service at least 2-3 times. have always been able to get it working again. It's not any faster- things are often still very slow. I should mention that i'm not a great techy and am looking for user-friendly products that work for me. PS- your survery requires me to say if i would rec this to a friend. Requires! how should i know at this point. i hate those required things when neither answers are correct for me!

Good product but was overkill for my needs.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This was recommended along with another product and this worked, but the other didn't. Went back to store and got all needs fulfilled with ONE product that works great and saved money,
