    With the assistance of a Best Buy employee I picked out this router for streaming of the net at home. Setup way very easy and and I was online and streaming video in less than 30 minutes start to finish. I have had it less than a month and there has been no problems so far.

    Works like charm with Comcast modem. We had an old Linksys router (slow speed and interrupted connectivity) which was not a good match with the latest Comcast modem. Set up was very easy and it really boosted the network speed without any additional change or modification to the existing configuration.

    Had problems installing the router. It should have been a piece of cake but the instructions were confusing and when you make one miss step, the whole process goes to hell. Had to call customer support (Linksys) and spend 2 hours going step by step over and over again to finally get it done. The first service rep lost me on the phone connection and never called me back (he had my number) I had to call a second time and go over the problem completely a second time. Also why does all the reps have to live outside the USA and only have a basic English language skill? It was very hard to understand either rep. Sounded Indian but said they were from the Philippines. Also they seemed to be only interested in selling me a service contract for the NEW router. Would I buy it again, no, I'd go with a different brand. I guess the only really good experience was at Best Buy where the sales person tried really hard to answer all my questions on this router and several other items. Best Buy YES LinkSyS NO

    Replaced a 10 year old Linksys. New one was easy to setup but did call customer support which was a great experience to finish the setup. We could tell the difference right away with the new one. Best Buy personal helped to suggesting this model for my application and price range.

    I am expanding my office to another level in our building. I had the owner run 1 cable from the downstairs to upstairs for the additional stations. The router enabled me to connect new computers upstairs to my internet service located downstairs. I installed it myself, and I am not an IT person.
