    Good range, never really have to reset. Used it for 3 months now, no problems. If you want something that you don't want to hassle with, this is a great choice. Best bang for your buck.

    I think that it would be great if the packaging had more information about whether or not a router is compatible with specific internet service systems. We had a great sales assistant, and he seemed knowledgeable and said that it would work with our modem. However, it was frustrating to get it home and not be able to have it work with our other equipment. We returned the next morning and exchanged it for the Century Link combination modem and router and it worked beautifully. Thank goodness that Best Buy makes returns and exchanges so easy.

    With my rented xfinity router, I had to use wifi extenders to cover my house. Items would drop off line. Did not have these problems with this router. It's signal easily covers my whole house.

    I was looking to buy one of the top, most powerful routers. Sales rep suggested this one for me. I live by myself and am the only user. No lags. No drops. Perfect for streaming and Xbox Live.

    This router works fine. If you are not technical it is easy to set up. I would prefer it if it had the option to go directly to manual configuration

    From unbox to internet was about 15 minutes. The app will be useful in my office setting where I need to distribute temporary passwords and have guest internet access.

    I've purchased top of the line home Wireless Routers before, but this one was a step or two down on price-point, but more than a couple steps up regarding performance. Pleasantly Surprised!

    Works good when hard wired in but WiFi signal is low and slow and I'm only 10ft away and no walls to go thought. My cable modem router combo is on the other side of the house and goes thought 5 walls and has better signal.

    I needed to purchase a router for my daughter's apartment. It had to be strong enough for multiple devices over two floors. The sales associate recommended this router and it is working great.

    Had purchased a Lynksys router that for some reason put out a strong signal but had no internet. Returned it and got the Netgear router. Installed easily and works like a charm.

    Not the most sexy product to review. I'm no tech wizard. But it does it's job. Online you have access to all it's features. Even I figured it all out. So it should be a breeze for you.

    My router of another brand wasn't performing consistently. So I bought this Linksys. I have yet to require to reset the router like I used to. I think this is better.
