    Updated wireless router

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    My old wireless router started having issues reaching through the house and would cut out. I researched several routers and so far this has been the best choice. I was able to hook everything up and get online within minutes. The website at Linksys gave me the control I needed. Great product for the price.

    Great Router for Most Needs

    With 3 PlayStation 4's and multiple laptops and phones in my house this router still performs beautifully. The priority mode isn't mentioned much on the packaging but helps decrease network traffic from interfering when you need bandwidth the most. Worth every dollar and I'm sure it will last a long time.

    This router has good wifi range 2g is slightly weaker but 5g is spot on. I have whole house coverage up to 3000 SQ ft and roughly 5 to 10 feet radius. Nice interface and app is awesome also. Great for keeping an eye on guests and the kids. App even let's you check on the network while away. I recommend.

    Was really having trouble with cable wifi . Looked these up on line and it had good reviews. I went from having cable company out daily to maybe once since I purchased this, and that was for phone service. Wish I had known before all the aggravation with cable wifi about this. Sure has fixed my headache.

    I bought this router instead of paying for one thru the cable company and I tell you it was well worth it. I don't have pay extra fees for internet service. It can be alittle pricey for an upfront cost but worth it in the long run for a great router. I haven't had a prob with it yet.

    Easy Installation

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I'm not a super tech friendly person and having this installed was not difficult at all. I just followed instructions from manual and that's it. I have xfinity as a supplier and using a motorola arris modem SBG6580 my internet works much better than expected. I would post 5 but I believe that every product can be somehow improved.

    Very easy to setup and I typically need assistance from someone else for stuff like this. This is exactly what I needed for all the devices I wanted to connect in my apartment. Plus, Jason at Best Buy was super knowledgeable and helpful with my purchase decision.

    I purchased this to replace a very old Linksys that finally failed on me. the set up was very easy had it all up and running in about 30 minutes. The 5GHZ option has made things a lot faster and an amazing improvement over my 6 year old router. Very pleased this with over all.

    I needed my router to transmit a strong signal to my studio that is about 40 feet away from my house. The Linksys - MAX-STREAM AC1900 works. I appreciate the assistance of the two Best Buy employees who helped me choose the right router, at a reasonable price.

    Bought this router as an upgrade to an older Linksys router I had. I've had the router for Several months and so far everything has been great! For my 1600 sq home it provides excellent coverage with no dead zones, and I took my time trying to find one.

    A very good router that fulfill my requirement

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I bought this router at retail shop, this router provide a good range of coverage of WiFi signal but not the best. the speed of downloading and for gaming is 8 out of 10 mark I given. The location for the router we is quite important for better coverage. I recommend this router for 3/4 HDB or Condominium type.

    One of the best routers for the least amount of money you can buy (especially when its on sale). Easy set-up but if you have no-script be sure to disable it first. PC Mag. editor's choice.

    This was as easy to set up as any plug-and-play item you will ever buy. Not only does it have a great GUI, but it has an on-line option that allows you to monitor this router and its network from anywhere you have internet access. Great buy!

    This router is amazing has great range and customizability. I am very good with routers and this one makes it even easeier. The only thing is the 5ghz range is a little lacking for where I have it, but the doesn’t bother me much.
