    Plugged it in, loaded app, followed a few simple steps and was up and running in minutes. In my 2000sq ft home with this placed in the back room I get full signal everywhere and take advantage of 100% available internet bandwidth. Very happy and love knowing if I ever need to expand I just buy another node for the built in mesh networking!

    My wife and I both work out of home offices, so WiFi is important. Additionally, all our video entertainment comes via streaming. Spectrum provides our internet, and combined with this router, we have blazing speed. Set up was easy via the Linksys app, and we immediately saw an increase in response from our previous router.

    This works amazing. I have a 2000 sq ft home and it is on one end of the house and it covers both stories and every item we use for wifi. It was super easy to set up. It has a very user friendly app and you can control who is using the wifi and disconnect them on the app. Highly recommend.

    This Router is "Smart" and has made it so easy to keep track of all our Devices. We can now use our different devices all over the house without a drag on the signal everytime another device is started. I especially love the fact that I can use my mobile phone to control the functions on the Smart WiFi system. Definitely a keeper!

    The setup was so easy...using the app on my cellphone. I was able to have the router up and working, and all my devices connected in about 15 minutes. I like the device prioritization option. It's a great way to make sure the most important devices get bandwidth when needed. Signal strength is great and reliable. A real value!

    Got this for inlaws. This replaced a basic router they've had for years. Increased coverage and throughput. Very easy to set up and I can monitor the status remotely, as long as they have internet. The status LED is nice to quickly troubleshoot problems.

    Linksys-AC2200 Triband mesh router works perfect for us. We used to own an older Linksys for the last 4 years and its about time to give our wi-fi router an upgrade since we just bought a new 75inch smart TV. Wi-Fi coverage is awesome, no dead spot anywhere in the house. Easy set up too.

    this router was put into place to replace one that was 6-7 years old. setup was simple and easy, even though it did requrie the use of an app on a smartphone. if you are in need of a new router to restore your speed or to get wifi into a further area of your home, then you should consider this router.

    At this price point, this router is excellent, delivery signal through the house with almost no loss. It’s future proof with the wifi 5 capabilities. I have connected more Thant 15 devices at once, and they all performed well. I definitely recommend this to a friend and family.

    I purchased this to replace my six-year-old Linksys EA6350v1 router. Granted, it is overkill for what I need and I didn't need it for the mesh technology, although if I change routers in the future, this will be useful for my parents who have spotty WiFi connection in their house. They could certainly use this along with the Velop Mesh WiFi Extender. I already manage a Velop Mesh setup with the Linksys app and I have always had great success with the Linksys brand, so I knew what to expect. The setup was simple and management is a breeze. Granted, there isn't much you can configure with the router like with other brands but that was OK for me. The changes I made were: - Disable UPnP (Connectivity > Administration) - Custom DNS to use Cloudflare and Google DNS (1.1.1.1, 1.0.0.1, 8.8.8.8) (Connectivity > Local Network) - Disabled sharing 'Router diagnostic information' (Troubleshooting > Diagnostics) - Enabled Logs, although it doesn't tell that much (Troubleshooting > Logs) I decided to create one SSID rather than two due to its smarter technology built-in. I had to reconfigure a couple devices that only use WiFi 4 (OG Chromecast, Brother printer) but that was no problem. So far speeds have been expected and connections have been stable although it's only been one day.

    Replaced a Netgear that was dropping signal several times a week. After several weeks, continues to work fine with good coverage throughout my two story house and with 20+ connected devices. No issues with streaming movies to Apple TV while also gaming. Companion app is nice as well.

    I am a little challenged when it comes to technology. I woke up one morning with no WiFi. I realized I had no lights on my old router even after unplugging it and plugging it back in. I went to Best Buy and this product was recommended. It is easy to install, even for someone like me and works great!

    I purchased this router to replace one that was failing. Best Buy provided it at a great price. The router was easy and fast to set up with the Linksys app, so that it serves as a drop-in replacement for the old router. The performance is rock solid throughout our house. I am extremely satisfied.

    I purchased this fir faster wifi and to avoid paying rental fees from my internet provider. I pay for 400 mbps so this product works great with all of the devices connected to it. The app is easy to use and I haven't encountered any issues.

    The router was up and running in about one minute using the App (I already had the App from a previous Linksys router), could not have been easier. Speeds were amazing, 250 mbps over wifi about 60' from the router itself with 2 kids streaming on their own computers. Very pleased with this unit.

    i purchased 2 of these routers. easy set up and easy monitoring via mobile app. the only thing I can't seem to change is the channel. it will pick the best one for you. Good coverage in 2700sq foot single story residence. the app lets you monitor your online status and speed test as well as other functions.

    Wi-fi in my house was bad with old router and not getting anywhere near my download speed. This particular device came in second as far good range and speeds. Ended up with the more expensive Eero system which works great in my house. This unit would probably work much better in someone's house with a different layout or materials in walls.

    Easy to set up and configure exactly the same as my moms old router. Nothing tricky. Took maybe 15 minutes and was very ready to go. If my mom hadn’t known I was doing it she would have had no idea it changed. The signal in her house (townhouse) was noticeably stronger and faster.

    This replaces my faulty (and old) Airport Extreme. I have found it to give excellent coverage. Easy to set up. Recommend keeping the same name your other router was using so you don't need to set up all of your devices again.
