The Best Buy sales associate hit a home run when he recommended the Linksys 802.11ac router. It was a good value, easy to setup and works well with the Internet and Apple TV.

If you live in an apartment complex or a crowded neighborhood, this router is a must. I cannot do anything on a 2.4 GHz frequency making this router a must-own.

We purchased this router to replace our previous one, which kept dropping the signal and we always had to reset. This one works great...no dropped signal!

My wi-fy router is accessible from any room in my home. It does use a lot of power so I placed felt feet under it to help dissipate the heat.

Connection and signal strength is GREAT. I have an office area outside of my house about 70 feet away from the router and get an excellent connection. Well worth the money

This router was very easy to set up. My husband and I can be technically challenged, but the clerk at Best Buy told us this would be easy and it was.
