Our old router would drop the wifi signal multiple times a day. We've had this one a couple months and I can't recall a single signal drop in that time. This is a great router, highly recommended.

Good router; powerful; easy to set up; this router is good when you only have a couple of devices. but any more than 3, then you need something more powerful.

My previous router was giving me a lot of problems when doing online gaming or watching movies online. But this router works a charm. I can be playing online while my wife is watching some movies..

Easy to set up and so far, so good. Our old router kept dropping off and Netflix was not working hardly ever. We have had no issues and I haven't had to restart at all since installing this router.

Works great and was very easy to set up. The ability to hook up a USB hard drive to it is awesome. I can use my Roku TV to stream movies from my USB hard drive right to my TV!

The setup was very simple and took about ten minutes. No issues with computers or phones accessing the WiFi. One tv is having connecting issues but I am not sure if its the tv or the router settings.

Great router. Accommodates 10 in home devices at one time with very little drop. Works great streaming my videos to my tv's. Also, covers a great area without an expander.

This router and the new modem I purchase with it were both set up and operational within minutes of plugging them in. Haven't had a single issue in the six months they've been operational.

This router is Robust, Functional and Easy to Configure. Have it for a couple of months already without complains. One recommendation is to do a firmware update as soon you take it out of the box.

Dual Band Wifi Works Great - Router Works Well

Dual band wifi router works great. 2.4 Ghz and 5.0 Ghz are easy to setup and work well. 5.0 gets faster speeds and 2.4 gets longer range. I use both bands as I need the 2.4 for wifi far away from the router and 5.0 for streaming media close to the router. For some reason the wired routing didn't allow me to get full Internet speeds out of the box and I had to do a little tweaking with the settings. That is why I gave it 4 stars.

Had a Netgear that went bad after a firmware update. No regrets though because the Linksys is so much better! Better signal and setup was a snap. Very happy with this purchase.

Needed a better wireless modem for streaming off of Netflix, and this model seems to work very well for two floor device operation.
I really like the 'Dual adjustable' antennas.

WRT 1200AC dual band router

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
I received this router through Linksys friends and family program for free to test. I connected my router to my modem using the provided cable and ran the easy Wifi setup program which included changing the default admin password. When device rebooted I now had working 2.4 and 5 Ghz wireless and working internet connection. I especially liked the network map included in the firmware and also the new ability to list my devices in priority order to gain access to my bandwidth. So far this device covers my two story ten room home adequately with wireless signal. Definetly a step up from my former Linksys Valet router.

I bought this Linksys Router a while back and so far it is amazing so easy to setup and very fast about twice as fast as my old router. I did a test and with my old router i got about 24 mbps download and with the new one i got an average around 64mbps download speed. I highly suggest this router even for the person that has never installed a router before they make it so easy to setup anyone can do it.
