It's ok
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I feel like it should be better based on other reviews and how large it is. But it's not great. I still get spotty internet.

Posted .Hi, Jeremy,
The router should give you a solid wireless signal on a large house. There is a possibility that signal interference is what's causing your intermittent internet. We can have our Escalation Engineers assist you with some adjustments to your settings to help you achieve the performance that you expect.
Just send us your contact details at [email protected] along with the link to this post to complete your case.
We hope to hear from you soon.

Posted .Hi, Spools,
This is not the behaviour that we expected from your EA7300 router. This could be caused by an out dated firmware or misconfigured settings on the unit. Let’s get you over to one of our Escalation Engineers for resolution and to check the possible cause of this dropping connectivity. Email us the details at [email protected] with your contact information and the link to this review for reference.

Posted .Hi, Amanda420,
We're glad to hear that you've found the EA7300 Router easy to setup. To boost the range of your Wi-Fi network, we recommend assigning fixed channels for both frequency bands to what will work best with your existing network environment. Try channels 1, 6, 9 and 11 for the 2.4 GHz band and channels 36, 40, 44, and 48 for the 5 GHz. Should you need a hand, tap us anytime at [email protected]. We have our Escalation Engineers always ready to serve you.

Okay
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It seems to work okay but I definitely prefer Apple products. Setup is much more streamlined on airports.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendworthless
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.First this router didn't last 3 weeks before it started turning off and needing rest or whatever before it restarts after unplugging several times for about 10 minutes. Second, this worthless item can not be returned after about 2 week in which had I known I would never have purchased in the first place. I have to quit buying from Best Buy as this happens often with many items. I stopped buying from Best Buy about 10 yrs or more ago due to same reasons and thought I would give them a try again. Live and learn! This item was bought NEW but didn't have the plastic cover on it as they should have so probably even been repaired before. Who knows?! Owned this item 2 months, used it only the first 5 weeks struggling with unplug/replug, reset etc etc etc. Went back to my $28.00 wireless for good connect with no problems until I can afford a better router. No more LINKSYS or BESTBUY.

Good basic router
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Returned Linksys router because it did not perform better than my existing older Belkin 600 DB router. My internet speed still dropped about 5mbps after covering 30 feet to my two smart TV sets so now I am purchasing broadband service of 40mbps and get less than 30mbps at my TVs. This works for 4K streaming of Netflix/You Tube.

Not Good at ALL
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this product thinking is was going to work for me better that the old one I had but this piece in item is even worst every time the light is blinking making it impossible to connect to the internet. Horrible don’t waste your money.

Posted .Hi, SwtGirl,
There are a few factors that could cause the issue like a defective cable. We can try swapping the Ethernet cable from your modem to the Linksys router for isolation. Also, try to connect a computer directly to the modem and, check if you're getting a stable connection from there. Let us know the results at [email protected] and, we'll have our Escalation Engineers provide further assistance.
Please don't forget your contact details and the link to this review for our quick reference.

Does the job
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Does the job but signal seems weak at times. Be sure to put it in the middle of the house.

Posted .Hi, Kippo,
Aside from placing the router in the middle of the house, try also to set a static wireless channel through the web interface as it could help in stabilizing the signal.

Posted .Hi, Chris,
If you’re encountering weak or poor signal from the router, there are a number of factors that might cause this setback such as physical obstructions, wireless interference, or outdated firmware. Making sure the router is running with the latest firmware and adjusting the wireless channels can help optimize its performance.
We’d like to have a better look at this and provide you with further assistance. Just send us an email at [email protected] with your contact details and the link to this post as a reference.

Worked great... for a month.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It worked well for 4 weeks or so. I came home from work to find the light blinking. I tried unplugging and restoring power to my modem and the router in that order, but still wouldn’t work. Called customer support. And, after wasting over an hour of my time, they told me they would have to make a Mac clone and figure this out. Also, they wanted to charge me to do this. I got a bad unit, and Linksys has bad customer support.
