    Perfect price and performance. Router is in my basement and gets 50+ mb in 3rd floor. I am able to steam 1080p easily over WiFi on 2.4 ghz.

    This router handles speeds pretty decently. On occasion it drops connection but I think that's only because of how many devices get connected

    I was looking to replace my older b/g router and was looking for one that had guest access internet capabilities. This one does, and it was on sale, so it was a no-brainer. The only issues I have had are that it seems to have overheating issues. I made sure to move the router to a location that is well-ventilated and had nothing blocking the bottom vents. The other issue is that to use all the functions this router provides, you need to directly connect your internet to this router. That is a problem for me, as I have to use the FiOS provided router. Otherwise, I am pleased with my purchase.

    The router was simple to set up and seems to be roughly twice the power of our prior router. We now get signals throughout our house, which has not been possible before.

    This router I purchased on a black Friday deal for a great price. My old router was not an ac router. Once I insta this one speeds tripled. I highly reccomend this product.

    The last routers I have bought, linksys, Cisco and one other. Seems they tend to "heat-up" when used or at least left connected 24 hours a day, and stop working. The desktop computer says "you have no internet connection"! Then after hours of troubleshooting, unplugging modem, unplugging router, several times; it seems to restart and continue working for along period of time. I keep a new, unboxed router of a different brand at the house in case of router "failure"!

    The router instructions were easy to follow and I was up and running in a few minutes. I is much faster than the one it replaced. I've been using it for about a month without a hitch.

    There were so many to choose from but after reading and comparing all the features this unit was best suited for my use. I have a very old home with solid brick walls and our old unit had difficulty with sending a signal through out the house. I now can have multiple users on netflix and playing games on line with no signal loss. Instillation was a little tricky because it took my smart TV and computer a few tries before it would recognize the new signal but once we got up and running there have been no problems.

    I bought this router to increase my wifi. I have 3 smart TV's, 2 Laptops, 2 smart phones, and desktop. All work good with this router. I used to own an E2600 and couldn't get all my devices to work, but with this I can. I can get wifi in my back yard which is a plus, so I can do yard work or sit by my pool to listen to music or surf the web.

    Very easy to setup. Love the fact that it comes with app for your phone in which you have full control of your router. You can also set up downlod limits for guests, and use different password for them.

    I am overall pleased with the router, it is my first Linksys networking device. Only negative is the speed of the USB 3.0 port but I can't say for sure that it's the port itself causing the slow transfer rates. You will not be disappointed with this router, period.

    Purchased this item on sale. The installation process was a bit of a headache for me, but now that it is installed, it works great. Range is decent but I notice it slows down if a door is closed.

    I am not a tech guy and hate the thought of having to hook things up. This was VERY easy to set up - even for me. That's about all I really care about. The router performs a lot better than my old one.

    Very easy to setup. Just plug and play and visit the website to name and password protect your network. Range was decent but did lose some signal through walls. Great if you don't have a large house. The iPhone app was also very helpful in monitoring your network and turning on or off guest network and access.
