The router works well. It doesn't have the best reach for larger homes.

Signal Range is not that good!

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
This router is durable, because it doesn't break easily. But, its signal range is not as good as I thought it would be. I have trouble getting a steady signal on the 2nd story of my home, even though the router is just below on the first floor. The signal seems to have trouble getting through the ground floor OR 1st story's ceilings and the floors of the 2nd story.

Hi Dean9536,
Raising the router above floor level can improve the strength of your wireless signal. You can also tweak its wireless channel to avoid possible interference on your network. Let us know how it goes at [email protected] with your contact details and the link to this review for reference.
Regards,
Rechel Linksys Support
