      Hi, DD22401,

      Setting fixed channels for both frequency bands would help in boosting your Wi-Fi range depending on your current network environment. Try channels 1, 6, 9 and 11 for the 2.4 GHz network, and channels 36, 40, 44 and 48 for the 5 GHz. Should you need a hand, email us your contact details and the link to this review at LinksysCares@linksys.com. We have our Escalation Engineers always ready to serve you.


      Regards,

    Bought my Garmin 2589LMT in Charleston,WV on my way down to Florida. My previous Garmin I had for 8 Years died there so I bought this one. This Garmin went dead today after less than a week and I'm on my way now to Best Buy to return it. The timing of your survey was perfect.

    Build quality is decent. After the initial setup, the device worked optimally but when added loads were placed on the device to test performance, system began to overheat which caused the devices to drop connections frequently. Recommend this device for light usage.

      Hi, MikeP77373,

      Thanks for expressing your thoughts. As you reported, the router overheats and it causes frequent dropping connection which is very uncommon. As you know, the router is capable of connecting up to thirty-two wireless devices simultaneously. Allow us to make this right for you. Do you happen to know if your router is running on the latest firmware version? We recommend to manually upgrade/reflash the firmware of your unit using a wired PC. If the upgrade is successful, please proceed in doing a factory reset and reinstallation. We would also suggest relocating the router in an open and well-ventilated area to avoid possible overheating and likewise to provide you a much wider wireless coverage. Should you need further assistance, get in touch with us so we can assist you accordingly. Email us the details at LinksysCares@linksys.com along with your contact information and the link to this review for reference. We would be more than willing to help you out.

      We look forward to hearing from you the soonest.

      Regards,

      Hi, Joey,

      Adjusting the wireless channel of the router and relocating it are two steps that would help to optimize its wireless range. If there are still dead spots, then there could be interference in those areas and adding a range extender could solve this challenge. Please do not hesitate to contact us for assistance and inquiries via email at LinksysCares@linksys.com. We’d be happy to serve you.
