    I wanted a router to cover a 2300 sq house, and this one did the trick with coverage to spare. The Smart Linksys Wifi app is also cool, allowing you to monitor all network devices.

    I had a little trouble setting this up, but it was probably my fault. It setup differently than all my previous routers. So read the instructions, right. It is fast enough for my needs. Streams good, and keeps up with my cable speed.

    I installed this router which replaced my old one on Christmas morning and wow what a difference!! All of my electronics are performing significantly faster than before (laptops, iPad, iPods, etc) . I would recommend this router to anyone. The only challenge I have encountered is trying to get my wireless printer to connect with the router.

    My cable company only provides a modem and wants $5 a month for a router. Went to Best Buy and was recommended to get this one and bonus, it was on sale! It was easy to set up and has a lot of nice features such as allowing you to turn a guest mode on and off. I have an 825 square foot apartment and it reaches all over it as well as outside in the garage! Very happy with the router.

    This router has provided a wireless connection for eight devices at the same time in our house. The data speed did not noticeably slow, and connection was simple and smooth. I would recommend this router to houses who want fast wireless and have a large number of wireless devices.

    I am really happy with this purchase it something like plug and play. I have not had the opportunity to take advantage of all this router offers at this point but I look forward. This one is faster and my old router was shot. It keep dropping the connections so imagine how happy I was to be able to watch a complete show without having to get up and reboot my router. Love this product!

    Gives me much faster speeds than the nearly 10 year old router I was using prior. Doesn't give the coverage I was hoping for though. Live in a modest size apartment and it doesn't cover the whole place with a strong signal.

    Picked this up because my other router wasn't working. Easy set up and the router is sleeker looking then my last one. Would definitely recommend as a purchase if you are in need of a router.

    This router works great! The speed is noticeable, especially on the 5ghz band. I have an external hard drive attached to the available USB port on the router and I back up all of my macs wirelessly with out any problems at all. I bought this half off during Black Friday and this router is worth every dollar of it retail price.

    I had this router for about 3 weeks and it has performed pretty well. I have had to hit the reset button about a week after I got it up and running but haven't had any trouble since.

    It is speedy and easy to set up as a standalone wireless router. However, if this is to be added to your existing home network as a secondary router, the set up can be challenging.

    Linksys has finally started to take some of the magical gobblety-gook out of setting up a Wifi router, without completely dumbing it down. Very easy to set up, no CD needed. It's also been easy to get back into it and change things on the menus.
