Overall I am very satisfied with this router. The router has a very fast and reliable connection. The only issue that I had was it was a little time-consuming to get it setup on my Windows 10 laptop. However once I got everything setup and running it was a very fast,stable and reliable connection! I would definitely recommend this product to anyone from the business professional, student,casual home user as well as gamers!

For someone who really likes to their time making a decision on anything they purchase, this buy was really hard for me. My Apple Airport Time Capsule recently gave out and without having WiFi it was necessary that I make a timely decision because let's be serious, there isn't a whole lot that we do that doesn't require wireless internet these days. I made a trip to the store and an employee helped me go over a few options, comparing what I had previously to what all is out there now. He recommended this router, saying it was just as good as what I had if not better. HE WAS RIGHT, THANKFULLY! This router seems to be so much quicker than the one I had before. I would most definitely recommend this to anyone!

Extremely easy to set-up. Love that it has an app. It is easy to control through the app and website. I wasn't getting the speed I've been paying for until I upgraded and got this router. Now, the speed has increased greatly. Best decision I ever made.

Best router I've ever used.

I love my AC1900 router.
First, it was fast and easy to set up. The interface also made it easy to rename my Wi-Fi signals with an easy to identify name. Setting the new password was equally easy.
Next; the router signal is very strong through my two story house. My wi-fi internet down load speed upstairs, is equal to the direct network cable connection down stairs at my modem.
I did have a problem later with my first router. Linksys customer service was extremely helpful in correcting the problem.
I would recommend this unit for any one wanting a new router.
(I have used this router for regular computing, Netflix, PS4 gaming, and World of Warcraft.)

My old Linksys E3000 was damaged by power surge. Looking for replacement. Read many reviews of different products. This was one the best and after a month in use would say I made a good decision.

Keep losing signal

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
I did not plan on buying this router but asked the Best Buy tech what he would recommend and he suggested this router. My main problem with the old router was range. My cable comes in through the basement and I had an extender but would lose the signal. Just want something where I would not lose the signal. I am not a tech person and just wanted a plug and play with no problems.
My first problem was that it did not set up. I called tech support and after an hour they had the router working. About 2 weeks later, the wifi stopped working on my computer. I also problems with the connection on my TV. I called tech support and spent another hour on the phone and they were able to get it working by switching it to another channel or frequency.
It worked for about 2 weeks. Then my computer kept dropping the signal about 4 times a day. Very frustrating. My 2 teenagers also told me that their wifi kept getting dropped and that the new router "sucked."
I called tech support for the third time yesterday. Spent close to another hour on the phone and they did an update. It has been working today.
I have spent 3 hours with tech support. I have had my signal drop on my computer close to 30 times. When it works, I get a good signal throughout the house. However, it has been frustrating.
I did not expect the hassles with a new product that I just spent $200. I am hoping that I am done with tech support but only time will tell. I probably should have returned the product but I am now outside the return period for Best Buy.

I bought this router, with the mindset of getting another one, a night hawk, and i walked out with this one. Why? well i had 14 days to return it and I knew I would definitely use it up in time to make a decision. I am beyond glad I chose this one. It has very user friendly interface, an app for your mobile device and best of all 802.11ac for 5 ghz. Its advanced and does a great job with multiple devices via wifi. As far as speed, it communicates very well with everything. I could not be more happier with this decision. This is coming from a lifetime ASUS/Netgear network device user. Good job Linksys!

I've had Linksys products - old ones that were bullet-proof and had to be retired due to technology passing them by. I've since moved to Netgear products and was interested in seeing what Linksys has done to improve what damage Cisco did to them.
The setup of this router was fairly straight forward following the directions provided.
The overall performance of this is about what I had with the Netgear products that didn't cost this much. As this has AC which my Netgear's don't support, I tried with my new laptop and saw no difference in speed connection; maybe my laptop doesn't support AC so I ordered a USB AC device and will test and report once it comes in.
Unless you need the AC function, there are less expensive alternatives to this that work great. This product is acceptable, but unremarkable for the extra money over Netgear wireless routers with gigabit connections for four items.
I recommend this with the caveats above. If you can get it on sale, that improves the rating.
