This is a very suitable product to avoid buying the wireless router that my cable company, Cox Cable, told me that I could buy from them to take advantage of their super high speed internet. Truth be told, if you want to experience the super high speed you need to be plugged into the wall. Like anyone is connected to a wall anymore. Even with this router I do not get even near the speed that I get when hard wired in, but there is no way I will be a slave to the cable.

Hi Jimbuddi,
Thank you for giving this router a five star rating. We'd also want you to know that a helping hand is always here, in case you need it.
To improve the speed of the wireless router, try adjusting the wireless. Make sure as well that the Media Prioritization is off especially if you have not prioritized any of the connected devices.
Here are some links that you can check:
