Customers are saying

Customers are impressed with the AC1200 Dual-Band Wi-Fi 5 Router's ease of use, performance, and range. Many appreciate its affordability and the strong signal it provides, resulting in excellent coverage throughout their homes. While some experienced connectivity issues, the positive feedback on setup, performance, and range outweighs the negative. The router's compact size is also a plus for users with limited space.

    I bought one of these for my two-story primary residence and it worked very well so I bought another for our vacation house. It is fast and reliable close to the router, but the speed falls off precipitously. The speed of my connection upstairs in my study is routinely less than 10 percent of the speed close to the router. It might have something to do with construction, but I'd have guessed that my 100-year old primary residence with plaster walls would be less permeable than my 50-year-old vacation house with drywall. In any event, it doesn't work for me in home number 2. If I'd realized Best Buy had such a short window for returns, I'd have given up on fine tuning and returned last week.

      Hi, Leonard,

      We hear you. Obstructions such as walls and large thick objects can indeed affect how the signal travels. Aside from relocating the router, we have to make sure that signal from the modem is stable as well. Changing wireless channels is also advised. Feel free to email us at LinksysCares@linksys.com the link to this post so we can discuss this further.

      Regards,

      Mara

    I purchased this router to replace one that was at least 5 years old. Initially, the network kept disconnecting. After contacting Linksys I manually downloaded and installed a firmware update and everything seems to work fine. My devices all have excellent download speeds even through the walls. A good value overall.
