Customers are saying

Customers are positive about the AC1200 Dual-Band Wi-Fi Router's ease of use, range, performance, and signal strength, with many praising its simple setup and strong, reliable connection. However, some customers reported occasional connection problems and found the router to be somewhat large. Positive feedback also highlighted the router's good coverage, price, and dual-band capabilities. A few users mentioned experiencing lag, though this was not a widespread concern.

    Bought another brand in September and by November it went out. Bought this one and it's perfect! Love the security settings and performance.

    Easy to set up. We have two routers hooked up in the house now, to accomodate all the devices we are using. This new router solved our problem.

    This is a real sound wireless router and the ability to use the linksys smart wifi app is a big plus. Easy to set up as well. Great product!

    Works as expected, can be difficult to configure, would consider buying again if hard drive attachment added to product would be easier to access

    It is a very fast router, however it needs to be reset nearly every day, which is very annoying, especially when I just want to get work done.

      Hi Redwdogg39,

      What you’re experiencing is not normal since the router shouldn’t require a frequent reset. Our Escalation Engineers could try a couple of steps to help resolve this issue for you. Send us an email at [email protected] with your contact details and the link to this review.

      Regards,

    Our backup power hub went out unexpectedly. We use it to house our routers and such. Works perfectly and does not trip or anything.

    I read several reviews before purchasing. The folks a the store could not answer basic questions (which should have been my first clue), In short, the router never worked so I returned it.
