    We purchased this item thinking that the next gen linksys would be all we need to provide strong wifi throughout our 1800 sq ft- 2 story home. Man were we disappointed in the lack of range, connectivity and speeds this unit delivered. Surprised I was as I have owned linksys b and g routers exclusively throughout the years. We moved on to Asus

    Was not able to stream over my whole house. Had to return for refund and upgrade. Probably great for a smaller house, or apartment.

    I needed to get my in-laws a new router while I was visiting them. Their AT&T router was stuck in a metal communications cabinet and could not be relocated, so I just put the AT&T router into bridge mode, disabled it's wifi, and then bought/installed this new router in a good location. Nice strong wifi signal throughout the house with high throughput. Exactly what was needed, and it was not expensive or difficult to set up.

    Works good, fairly easy set up. Range is ok. One of the antenna was broken and I don't live close to a Best Buy so I had to fix that by gluing it back together, it wasn't worth the time and effort to return it.I would have rated it a little higher if not for that.
