    I have had to call tech support twice. Connectivity was poor on the wireless. They helped me change settings. Connectivity improved, but I am still having issues maintaining wireless connectivity. Called again and still have problems with wireless connectivity.

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    It does the main job well, is fairly easy to configure, but requires creating an account with Linksys before you can set it up. The USB port is listed as 3.0, but fastest I could get it to run with a drive was around 30 MBps write and 45 read.

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I have my router installed in a bedroom the front of the house. If we are in the back of the house on our laptops, the signal is weak to non-extent. I will be returning this router to upgrade to one with a stronger signal. When in range, the router performs well.

    The range isnt long but its still pretty good. Sometimes it takes too long to reconnect after a reboot. The dual band works great and is easy to install. The interface is very user friendly.

      Hi, Pedro,

      We're glad that you find the extender easy to install and use. To improve its range, place it away from things that causes wireless interference, such as metal objects and thick walls. Ensure that it has the latest firmware as well to stabilize the connection. Email us your contact details and the link to this post at LinksysCares@linksys.com so that we'll introduce you to our Escalation Engineers for further assistance.

      Regards,

    We are so pleased with the quality of this product! We were having problems with the old rotor and did not realize how badly it was actually working until the new one was installed. This rotor had a cheaper price but offered equal performance as more expensive brands.

    The new Linksys Wi-Fi router that I purchased from Best Buy has solved my computer problem. I did have to spend a considerable amount of time with Linksys support but they were very helpful and we finally got my wireless printers working correctly.

      Hi Lily,

      Your experience with our product is important to us. Based on your post, you're having difficulties with the wireless connection. Adjusting the wireless channel of the router, relocating it or adjusting its antennas may help so you can also connect to the network while on the second floor.

      For further assistance, you may email us at LinksysCares@linksys.com. We'd be happy to serve you.


      Sincerely,

      Linksys Support
