    This Wi-Fi is better than the router provided by AT&T. But, it was not nearly as easy to set up as the salesman told us it would be.

    I'm sure it would have been great because it was highly recommended by someone professional that uses it but due to the make up of my house it would not work for me.

    my old router finally gave up. Once this was installed it was instantly 100 times faster with downloads and gaming even from across the house. one major issue with the old router it didn't have a far reach and you would lose connection. this router was the right choice and I'm so glad I finally have a reliable wifi connection.

    This unit has replaced my cable company provided wireless router. This unit in conjunction with an extender fixed the issues. This unit also gives me the ability to block access to several inappropriate topics and set time limits, among other security related features. Super easy setup and up to this point, zero down time.

    Best router I have had, only gripe is that it took sometime to set up. It has a lot of built in features, like dlna, FTP, network sharing of usb devices. Has two USB ports. Speed is great, the user interface is good. You can even run a speed test from the web interface and can set up external access to the router, it can set up a guest network as well

    Not the speeds I was expecting. Bottom line, you get what you pay for. I went from a Netgear N900 to this. Not impressed, even though it is supposed to be technologically more advanced. Don't waste $$ on this item. Spend the extra money and get something better.

      Hi, IMAX3DBuff,

      Knowing your experience and observations with the router's performance is very important to us. Allow us to dig more details about the situation so we can provide assistance accordingly.

      How much speed are you getting when conn​ected to the modem and when wired to the router? If there's a big difference, updating or re-flashing the firmware usually helps.

      Feel free to reach us via email at [email protected] should you need further assistance. In the message, indicate your full name, phone number, location, and the link to this post. We'd be happy to help.

    We needed a different bandwidth for our router, since the microwave oven was interfering with the old router. This dual bandwidth router solved the problem.

    This wireless router is fabulous, increased download speeds, no more loss of connection and there are no more dead spots in the house. We have two gamers living at home and have 4 devices on WIFI almost all the time, since we added this router we have had no issues with connections or internet speed.

    Not a bad router for the price. Quick setup and it walked through pretty easily. Would like some additional options above the FTP for being able to access content from the internet. This is 2013, we should have SFTP minimum.

    It is a really good product. I am very pleased with it. The ability to function at top range, quality, and speed over 2.4 and 5 is really helpful. Wish it had been a little cheaper (it probably will drop in price once the brand new stuff gets all the bugs out) but I am very pleased and glad I invested in it.
