    This Router was an upgrade from our 7 year old one. It seems to be an improvement with our connections!

      Hi Arthur,

      We'd like to offer our assistance in improving the router's performance. There are a lot of factors that may cause getting low wireless signal from the Linksys router. These are:

      • MTU Size
      • Frequency interference from other wireless devices
      • Low signal quality received from your wireless router
      • Router’s firmware needs an upgrade

      To avoid these, you may adjust the wireless settings of the router. Also, make sure that the router is on a higher location or less interference area.

      These links might help:

    My old wireless router bit the dust. I picked out this newly updated, much more expensive model that the online community said was awesome. It has a much smaller coverage footprint than the old one! Very disappointed. Next time...Asus!

    We are happy with this router but seems to lose the Internet Connection. We reset it and it works again. We plan to ask the Geek Squad about the problem.
