Very easy to setup
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have been using Nighthawk routers for many, many years. Well, the new Rax4 or whatever, was horrible. I couldn't stand it. Bestbuy way pretty much wiped out of everything when I went there to get a replacement, so I picked this up. If you want something you can just plug in, connect your wifi devices, and go about your business, then this is ABSOLUTELY the router for you! Extremely friendly interface and app, ,very good speeds, and oh yea, it is ready for you to add Mesh Nodes if you decide! For the price, I am not sure what all can hang with it. With that said, if you are a gamer or tech junkie like me... you will be annoyed. It has a "device priority" setting that i guess is supposed to be like a QOS. The 2.4 and 5G channels are both combined and I changed it 3 separate times before it finally stuck. So just be aware that this has some good power and features, but it is a ways off from a gaming and performance machine!

A Decent Reliable Router
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this to replace a failing Netgear R7900 that required a reboot 1 - 3 times a week. The setup was fairly simple. The only part that I found a bit challenging was trying to enter the DNS server info for OPENDNS vs using my ISP's DNS servers. After some digging and research, I found how to change the DNS servers. I personally prefer OPENDNS' parental control filtering over many of the pay services available, plus it's free. At the time of writing this review, I've been using this router for 13 days and no issues so far. I also work nights from home and my children are doing school remotely, so I disabled the auto update feature. I didn't want the router rebooting while in the middle of my work. I manually check once a week for firmware updates. I took one star off, because I don't have the option to manually backup the configuration on my PC.

GOOD COVERAGE - LAME INSTRUCTIONS
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.GOOD COVERAGE - LAME INSTRUCTIONS - I needed to upgrade and this using does well. The instructions were a single sheet the size of an index card and unhelpful. Fortunately, Linksys had great help at the other end of the 800 number so we are now good to go.

Great value for the price
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This router was very easy to setup and solved a lot of our connectivity issues with some of our wireless devices.

Nice router connectivity may be an issue
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Nice router super easy to install as with most router brands. Solid Linksys App experience for this device. The one big issue at least on my unit is the signal drops/connectivity issues with four active antennas, it could be that my internet is being throttled down due to everyone being at home because of the pandemic causing the drops but it was installed in a fairly small apartment so this should not be a problem. I never had issues with my old Netgear AC1750 these past few months until it finally stopped working. I will continue to use this router and see how it behaves but will return and exchange if this issue persists. Just something to look out for if you buy this unit but the speeds are as they should be and build quality is excellent.

Posted .Hi, Slycktech25,
Connectivity issues could be caused by wireless interference. You may try to use the channel finder on the Linksys app to optimize the router and, make sure to update the firmware for isolation.
Let us know the result at [email protected] with your contact details and the link to this review for our reference and, we'll assist you further.

Easy setup and solid performance
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Our modem with built in WiFi router wasn’t quite doing the job we wanted so we got this router to have a more comprehensive experience. Setup was a breeze and it works great. Future expansion is a nice option too. Highly recommend.
