    Great range, much better than the FiOS Gateway I had been renting. There may be an issue with processor speed as sometimes pages time out, but we do have a lot of devices connected so maybe just need a second router to share the load.

    This router ables us to have good internet speeds despite having multiple smart tvs, roku devices, laptops, and phones. There have been sporadic connection issues, but overall no big issues.

    Needed to replace my old router, since I upgraded my internet speeds! I did some research and settled on this Linksys Max-Stream AC1900. Works great, easy set-up & handles all our WiFi devices with ease!!

    My old router died and this one was very easy to setup and has noticeably superior signal strength. I did not want one of those multiple antenna AC 3200 plus jobs just a reasonably fast 802-11AC unit. This works great.

    Our other router was not working like we thought it should, decided to just guess the problem and replace it. Paid half as much for this one and it is 100x better! Great speed and reliable connection!

    I work from home and have two teenagers and a husband who plays games online. I never have any issues with my Wi-Fi or speeds. This is been a great addition to the technology in our house.

    I needed a new router that would handle more throughput and give me a better range with also handling more devices. This router meets all of my needs. Installation was a little challenging but I got through it.

    One hiccup, but performing as expected

    I've had one hiccup where the router needed a reboot in the month that I've had it. Otherwise, it's performing as expected. Speed and throughput seem good even for streaming TV and multiple wireless devices in the home. I did try to the NAS feature at one point, and that may have been what caused the WiFi hiccup, so I can't really comment on whether that's working well or not. One poor design choice I would add, however, is that set up is a bit of a pain. If you click the wrong button on screen at initial setup, you have to do a factory reset to resolve and set the router up manually. I also wish it would show the IP address of the upstream cable modem

    This router was used to replace the standard one provided for internet. Had a very noticeable bump in Wi-Fi speed. Was also easy to setup too. Would recommend to anyone looking to improve their wifi

    I upgraded to this router to solve a signal strength issue. My office and smart TV are 2 floors away from the router. Speed and signal strength have been great since!

    An excellent choice for a basic router. Improved the connectivity through the whole house over my last Linksys whose power supply failed.

    Needed strong router to support streaming direct tv one, Netflix and amazon video plus other wifi demands of household. This offers great speed without buffering would highly reccommend.

    Planned to cut the cord and switch to live streaming TV... wanted to upgrade my modem and router to be sure that I was getting maximum speed before I did this... Replaced a Surfboard SBG6400 modem/router combo with this router... I am getting somewhat better performance (less buffering, but still buffers occasionally)... still cannot stream 4K resolution... I don't think my internet connection will support 4K streaming... not sure how to tell if problem is with my internet link or the wireless router... Router setup has many options and I'm not sure that I have it setup optimally... when I have time I will spend more time on setup and testing... maybe I will find out it is awesome if setup properly... just don't know at this point... I was hoping to plug it in, connect and get 4k TV from NetFlix... but it didn't happen...

    I came in looking for a router and sought the recommendations of an employee . I told him that we were going to use it for internet activity on phone and to stream tv. This item has worked very good so far.

    I needed a router for a remote location where there is no internet access. The purpose was to stream media to multiple devices contained on an 8tb hard drive connected to the usb 3.0 port, which it does marvelously.

    I got this router for my in-laws. They needed a router that made the best use of their modem's provided bandwidth that sent a reliable signal throughout their house. I performed the setup and security configuration which I found pretty easy, but this isn't my first Linksys product. There are some settings I wish were a little more obvious to get to, but there are a lot of nice articles and help online if you can't find what you're looking for. Overall, all of our internet devices can all connect and run reliably, I haven't had weird "Connected, Not Internet" or other data issues since setting this up. More importantly I haven't heard any complaints either.

    installed my new router without any problem. A little difficult to install other wireless , like dvd player wii, and phones. Instructions are very good. Overall it is very fast and no waiting for internet anymore.
