Garbage. It will not maintain a connection to the cable modem, it restarts every few minutes at random intervals, completely useless.
I'm a fairly tech-savvy person who's knowledgeable about WiFi protocols and home networking. I have uploaded the latest firmware, reset the device to factory settings TWICE, and have not made any exotic changes to the standard settings.
IT DOES NOT WORK.

Hi Yarsan,
We understand your sentiments and our apologies that you have to go through this. This is not the expected behavior of the router especially the frequent reboots as long as you are using the power adapter that comes with it. As for the connection between the modem, trying other ethernet cables would help. Moreover, our Second Level Team is always ready to assist you. You may email [email protected] with your contact details, other relevant information, and the link to your review for quick reference.
Regards,

Easy to set up, the coverage is actually above what it claims. My low rating is that it is significantly slower than I expected.

I'm not sure if it's my phone, internet, or router, but I seem to continuously have trouble with wifi calls. Buffering on my TVs is not an issue though. Wierd

Bought it during the quarantine. Turned out not to be adequate size for my house. I some how missed that factor in the selection process. So many variables!

Hi, Ned1952KWS. The Linksys EA7200 router is ideal for a small-size household but, you can add additional range extender's to extend its wireless network.

Had nothing but issues with this start of the 2nd week of owning it. Keep resetting and Wi-Fi wouldn't be available but would still have connection via the Ethernet cable, and then put of nowhere it stop working. Returned it and bought the Netgear Nighthawk Ac1900 so far this seems like a better purchase faster speeds and having been kicked yet.

I bought this less than a month ago, and it drops constantly. Of course, I am outside of Best Buy's 2 week return window (when I considered returning it, it was literally 5 days outside the window), so I can't return it. I have googled and changed settings, turned off features like the second band and guest access, etc., and nothing works. My previous Linksys router lasted over 10 years and just recently started dropping. This is an expensive paper weight.
Check the date of this review - I imagine that companies change suppliers of parts all the time, so if this is recent at the time that you are reading this, try a different router.

Bought this to replace a dead wireless router (Netgear) that had never been sensitive to EMR issues. This damnable think drops wifi connections constantly when such things occur as the furnace starting up or the microwave running.
Unfortunately I did not realize this was such an exasperating issue until the DAY AFTER my final return day.
Not happy with Linksys and not happy with Best Buy!!

Hi,
Connection issues from the router may possibly be caused by several factors such as outdated firmware, or frequency interference from other wireless devices. Tweaking the router's wireless channels and making sure the firmware is up to date could help resolve the setback.
We'd like to have our Escalation Engineers take a close look at this. Just send us your contact details at [email protected] with the link to this post as a reference.

Still cannot get it to work. Had to go back to old one until I have mire time to mess with it. Did everything instructions said and internet would not work. Ran trouble shoot. That was useless.
The reason I say I would not recommend is because of the issues I am having getting it to work currently.

Hi, Rgonzalez,
This is totally unexpected! We can isolate the setback by plugging the unit into multiple outlets to see if the same thing happens. Our Escalation Engineers would love to assist and aid in experiencing the best out of the unit.

I bought this linkys after reading the good reviews.
It was easy to connect. However, the wifi signal of this router is very weak. Definitely not for a 1900 sq ft house.
Sitting 10 feet away from the router, my iphone only got two wifi strenght lines. No signal in the basement. The wifi signal in the garage was so weak that the garage door opener wan't able to connect. What a disappointment! I'm returning it.

Purchased as a in-place replacement for a Linksys WRT-1900ACS that stopped working in mid July 2021.
Sadly the AC1750 slows down daily, drops the Wifi signal several times a day and requires a reset to get it working again. Updated the firmware to the latest version and it still has the same issues.
Ended up locating another new WRT-1900ACS (since the product is no longer available at Best Buys) and replaced the Linksys AC1750. Glad that I was able to find another WRT-1900ACS.
