    I use this router for business at apartment complexes. It has been very reliable. The range for the wifi portion works very nicely.

    This router is a POWERFUL one. I was really only looking for ONE wifi option, but it gave me TWO. This was a bit more than I was expecting. It is good, but more than I really needed.

    When choosing my router I read all the reviews available. When I went in to make my purchase the clerk explained why my choice may not be the best for my situation and recommended this router. Bought it and am very satisfied

    So far, this product seems to be working well. The sales associates at Best Buy were wonderful in helping us to choose this based on the fact that we needed Apple TV to work better in our home. It is!

    Finally upgraded to broadband and chose this as our gigabit router. Works great handles many devises just fine. The ability to prioritize devises for speed is especially nice. The ability to log into the app and see what is currently online through the router with additional guest controls through the app are also appreciated. Handles my high-speed connection fantastic like. While running PC gaming, streaming from TV still pulled a speed test from the phone for over 50mb/s download.

    I had a modem/router bought from AT&T (one of their recommended ones) and it was terrible. I set this up with ease and so far have not had to reset it. Constant connection!

    Was very easy to connect to the internet modem and to all our shared devices. Previous wireless routers lost device connections but all devices are staying connected. Has good security features and allows quests on easily.
