Once this router was running it has worked great. Setup was not as easy as brochure indicated. I should have known this but the router has to download some info from the ISP to populate the settings. This is not mentioned in the setup installation but when I used Linksys online chat they told me about it. I have been able to remove a previously installed wifi booster and have strong signal throughout the house.

The Linksys AC1200 Dual Band wifi router was easy to set up . The wizzard dose most of the work for you. At first I had a problem going into router settings but on call to support and the problem was taken care of. You can control the bandwith for the first 3 items, I us this feature for live streaming of internet. The router is upstairs and the Nvidia Shield is on main floor, and a Roku is in basement, everything works good.

Purchased this router to replace a previous one that just didn't have enough wi-fi reach. I leave in a multi-level home. This one has a really good reach (i live in a 3,000 sqf home). It also supports older and newer (2 and 5 ghz). Networks. It comes with a usb port to which I have attached an external HD that now serves as a network storage unit. I've been using it for about a month now. So far no complaints.

This was my first non-Apple router, but it was very easy to set up via the web admin portal, and has a lot of great features like port forwarding. I have a long apartment and it reaches from one end to another. It's given me no trouble in the 2.5 years that I've had it (the Spectrum internet it's connected to...that's a separate story).

Happy with the ease of set up. Wishbthere was a stronger signal in our clubhouse as we have to use a range extender due to the 1920's construction of the building. Alsonuse Linksys at home.

It would have been 5 stars except the guest option was a bit confusing-still not working right for guests?! As far as connectivity and dependability, excellent!

Does everything that it's supposed to. The only issue is the dual band, most products only support the 2.4GHz. Only newer products are compatible with the 5GHz.
