This is a pretty good router for the price. I have a 50mpbs hard-wired connection and get 35mpbs+ wireless now (only 18-20 before). Adjustable antenna is great as well. Only slight knock is that there seems to be an occasional buffering issue with the Amazon Fire Stick and this router (not sure which is to blame). My cable modem has also rebooted a few times, again not 100% which device is the issue but for the most part reliable, smooth wifi
