The interface is clean and initiative. It was easy to configure and setup with most steps done after a few questions were answered in the setup process. To get full use of the speed, you will need to ensure that your devices support the new standard. Otherwise, it is fully compatible with wifi B, G, and N.

Linksys routers are number one

I have only had only two routers in my house since I moved up from dial-up years ago, and both have been Linksys. My first one started getting a bit quirky, requiring repeated reboots, but that was after better than a decade of constant use. So it was a no-brainer to purchase another one. This one was a little more difficult than I remember the first one being in trying to get to recognize my devices, but then again I probably should have read the instructions closer. My bad. Hope I get as many years from this one

We were having problems getting a strong connectivity throughout our house. The cable company recommended this brand and when we arrived at the best buy store, the salesman swore by it. Once home, we hooked it up and have no problems having a strong signal throughout the entire house.

Bought this to replace an older Linksys router. It was beyond easy to install and set up. The online tool allows you to manage numerous wireless devices and my range is significantly better. All in all I couldn't be happier. I also bought a Linksys repeater which allows me to connect down the street. That was also ridiculously easy to install and set up.

Had a problem with the old router achieving wifi coms throughout my 3,700 sqft house. No matter where I placed the last router I couldn't achieve better than "fair" connections from one end to the other. This new EA6900 provides "excellent" coverage throughout the entire house. Even my 5 MHz dongle gets great coverage no matter where I move my laptop. Can't wait for the snow to melt to try my luck on pool deck.

I'll keep it short and sweet. I have multiple streaming devices, tvs, tablets, laptops, gaming devices, 5 bars everywhere in the 3 story house...this router just does what it should, and it does it well. obviously the price is somewhat of a dink, but I think its well worth it.
