    My other linksys took a lightning strike, so I decided to go with this one. It has good range and is easy to set up.

    Extremely happy with my upgrade and the ability to control the network from my phone. Cuts in and out at times even when the light is green but could be my modem. All in all great purchase.

      Hi Chris,

      Your feedback is highly appreciated and thank you for your time in sharing it. Bypass the router and make sure that you have a stable connection directly connected to your modem. Adjusting the router’s wireless channel is also a good move to avoid possible interference in your network. Use the Wi-Fi analyzer app. It helps you find a less crowded channel for your wireless router.

      For further assistance, feel free to email us at [email protected] with your contact details, location, and the link to this review for reference.

      Regards,

      Linksys Support

    This is my first "nice" router. I'm used to routers being universally hated devices in my home, requiring a phone call to relatives who work in IT in order to accomplish tasks that seem like they should be simple. This router is different. It just sits there and, you know, works. On the rare occasion I need to change something in the router, I can pull it up on my phone through the app instead of having to direct my browser to an internal IP address. I'm all for it!

    It was very expensive, but it did help stop SOME of my computer "freeze ups". I would have went a few dollars more if I had known that my router was (part) of the issue. I am NOT tech savvy, so...

    Go With AC Wireless GREAT ROUTER

    I replaced my older N router with a new AC Router from Linksys. I am an engineer and ran speed tests which showed more than twice as much Bandwidth and Speed. I also compared the new AC1200 to a friend's AC router and this more than doubled his speed. Not all AC Routers are the same according to my testing and the AC1200 by Linksys is a superior one.

    I have four devices connected on a regular basis plus up to three guests. I am NOT a gamer so I don't have a huge draw on broadband. The router is plenty fast and I like the "guest" access option using the second band.
