    I replaced my older router so that we could get better 4K streaming. This one works great in that respect. Decently priced as well. My whole house gets great signal.

    Outstanding Router!

    I can honestly say this is the best router I have used! This is replacing a two year old router from another major brand and there is no comparison between them. To begin, the setup could not have gone smoother. The time it took from taking it out of the box to having it up and running was less than five minutes. That's including changing the default router name and password to custom ones. The setup guide that is included is simple to understand and there are not to many steps. I connected it to the incoming internet signal, turned on the power, gave it a few seconds for my laptop to recognize it, connected to the Linksys setup page and away we go. Also, the page for setting up the custom options is very easy to navigate and customize. The router itself is loaded with features. 2.4GHz and 5GHz channels (also a guest feature), MU-MIMO, USB 3.0 (2.0 as well), and 4x Gigabit LAN ports. More features than I will ever need and very future proof. The three removable antennas are easy to install as well. Now for the most important part, the performance. Seeing as this was an upgrade to an older router I fully expected it would perform better. What I wasn't prepared for was how much of an improvement this would be. The only part of the two story house that the signal even drops from five down to 4 bars is the farthest point away upstairs (on either 2.4GHz or 5GHz). This is compared to the old router that would be at one or two bars at that point. And as for the speed, well, it is allowing us to get every bit of the speed we pay for from our internet provider (Charter) and then some! We pay for 60Mbps internet and with this router we are getting consistent Wi-Fi speeds of 65-67Mbps thru the entire house! I know the router can handled much higher speeds as well. The old router would give us around 20-25Mbps if you were close to it and much less in another room. If I had one complaint (and I hesitate to call it that) it's that is is a bit large. But not so large as to be an issue. All in all, I couldn't be more impressed with this router and I have no doubt that with the vast ports and features I won't be needing to upgrade for years to come.

    Replaced a malfunctioning 5 year old D-Link with this Linksys. Very easy to install and setup. Worked like a charm right out of the box and is still going strong.

    I love the new router. It works as advertised. I have over ten devices and used to use a range extender. With this router in a one bedroom apartment, there is no extender required.

    I had a Linksys router before and was happy with so I thought I would buy another one. I'm not overly impressed with this model. It's missing some features that I would have liked to have like SSH access and the ability to send log files to another device. I also had issues with the 5G Wifi. My smart phones and table devices would occasionally have internet issues and I noticed that if I did a disconnect/reconnect to the 5G Wifi that it would start working again. I finally disabled the 5G (using only 2.4G) and my devices have worked fine ever since. I would have returned the router but some of the issues didn't occur until after the return policy. My plan is to buy a better Wifi router as my primary device and use this device to extend my Wifi network.

    It covers perfectly the whole house with very good power farther than this, nor does it lose capacity even for the amount of connected equipment, laptops, Tv, cel, etc.

    Great overall router. I bought this for my home and we have many wireless devices in the house (multiple TV's, 4 cell phones, 5 computers, a few tablets, a printer, etc.) and we were losing our connections all the time with our old router, but not with this one. Also the increase in TV streaming with this router compared to our old Linksys router was amazing as well.

    I got this because my previous one couldn't handle as many devices as I had. It's fairly user friendly, but I thought it would be easier to make use of the stronger band... everything still goes to one.

    Works great in our 2 story home, using the Linksys Smart app gives you control of your wifi from anywhere, turn wifi on/off, monitor the router and change settings too.
