    Bought this router as recommended by our provider's technician, to replace ASUS router that only lasted 1 1/2 year. It is a lot cheaper than the old ASUS we had, but seems like works just as good, the way it should be, and I hope it last a lot longer.

    First I want to say that I do not know much about Routers. I just want my internet to work. We have been using this router for many months now and have not had a single issue with it! That is what I NEED from a router. I would recommend this one!

      Hi, Watapr,

      This is not the router's expected behavior as it should provide a stable connection once it's set up. We can try setting fixed channels on both networks to help improve its wireless performance and avoid interference in your area.

      Please get in touch with us at LinksysCares@linksys.com so we can get you over to our Escalation Engineers. They'll guide you through the process and ensure that you can achieve the unit's full potential. Indicate your contact information and the link to this review for our reference.

      Regards,

    I have a smaller house, around 1 sq ft with a full finished basement and this router hits every corner with little drop off. It still has some drop off from room to room but not much. Definitely a good router for the price

    I moved and needed to buy a new router. So far, the connectivity and speed of this router have been excellent. However, I'm having an issue with its range. The apartment is a longer 1BR, and it has cement walls. I feel like I should be able to connect without issue to the back of the apartment, even with the cement walls, but that has been an issue. My desktop pc, which has a good external wifi card, works fine. However, my laptop and phone get sporadic connectivity, even though they will read 2-3 bars. I'm going to pick up an extender, which I hope solves the issue, but it has been an unforeseen problem.

    It was a friend's recommendation. There were more options in store (other brands and prices), but he knew that this one would work without problems. It has been working pretty well in a 3 bedrooms/2 floors house. I would recommend it!

    Purchased to be used as a WiFi Hotspot. Somewhat tricky to set set up at first, but after some research found a way to bridge with my FiOS Gateway to establish a WiFi Hotspot to extend signal strength without dropping packets.
