I purchased this router to upgrade to the AC standard. Having two growing kids makes it important to be able to connect multiple devices (desktops, laptops, external drives, tablets, and phones) to our wireless network. This router seems to handle all the traffic just fine. It's quite often that a couple of us are watching Netflix while another couple of us are surfing the web or downloading/uploading large picture files. Again, this router handles it just fine. Would definitely recommend this router.

We set it up and right away it kept kicking us off the internet. We called Linksys twice and each time we spent an hour on the phone with them trying to fix it. By the end of each call, the problem was fixed but within a day it was kicking us off again. We were told by Best Buy and Linksys that it shouldn't be kicking us off so we returned it for a different one and haven't had a problem since. 2 stars instead of 1 because I'm hoping the problem was just with the one we got.

Set up was easy and there was no adjustments needed.
The salesman pretty well sold us on this unit and it was a good idea.
