    It's a router. It was on sale, I had reward points. I bought it very cheap (basically 50% off full price). It works. It has good range. It has a on/off switch, abet in an akward location so turning it on/off is annoying but doable. Definitely serves it's purpose before it will have to be replaced in 2 years.

    Simple and easy to set up. After plugging it up and setting up the app which was easy to use. Everything is fairly straightforward to do. The router doesn’t have as many customization options as other router but it’s simple and just works well.

    Needed a replacement router since lightning hit it, took 10 mins to setup signal isn't the best feom front to back vs my previous one. Ended up buying an extension to bounce the signal. No other issues runs clean and fast for the price

    It's a good router for a small apartment. It does it's job well and gives me no real issues. Set up was simple and the app works great. Did have to reboot it once, but that may have been an issue with my service provider.

    QOS setting at top tier, you can set down speed, whoever connects when connects, perfect for multiple unit apartments and small hotels. Never needs restart, we first installed in about 3years ago, still didn't restart at once.

    Needed router for new office. I wanted something high end with lots of juice and I needed it that day so couldn’t wait for delivery. This was the best that was available in store. It works well, not complaints whatsoever.

    Just a good basic router. No-frills, but it has decent range and an easy-to-use setup process for someone just looking for a better product than what's provided by their ISP.

    Great little unit. If you have a small apartment and don't have a lot of people with multiple devices streaming all at once, this is the device for you. Easy setup and pretty much plug and play! Easy to use.

    Linksys makes really good products. This one doesn't disappoint. The router is basic compared to their higher versions but its performance is great. I haven't had to reset it yet.

    I’ve had this router for close to one month now and it works fantastically. I get the exactly mbps this router offers and in most cases up to 20mbps higher. I get total coverage inside my whole house (a three story town house). I have not received any lag or any issues at all with this router. Definitely worth the money! The only issue I have is during set up it creates two guest networks, one 2.5ghz and the other 5ghz. I have not found out how to delete these as, in my case I don’t need them. Not a big issue at all. Overall a 5/5 star product for sure!

    This was probably the easiest router I've set up for awhile. The 5G is fast. The downside is it will only handle 10 devices or i would have given it 5 stars Other than that it's a gppd router.

    Great product, internet by far faster than the original router. Almost getting my full 500mb now versus only 200. I can allow, or not allow just about anyone on my network. Even has an option for guess WiFi. Good stuff !

    This is great and works amazing however at set up we had a few connection errors. Once we reset and started over we haven’t had any issues! Especially since this was added to the collection of routers we already use.
