I would recommend this to a friend Can't reset, manufacturer dodging warranty
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If I could give this zero stars, I would. Difficult to set up, impossible to troubleshoot or reset. Be aware, if you buy this product and it fails, Linksys will go out of their way to avoid honoring the warranty - chats with tech support, multiple phone calls, bogus warranty link. Nightmare. Escalating now.
