Drops WiFi connection
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Router reboots itself for no reason even when just browsing the web, once or twice per week. Router worked fine for three months, then I exchanged for the same model. Second model started doing the same after about a month. It could possibly be the firmware update breaks it a some point. I have been a fan of Linksys routers for years but this family of routers with the Tri band technology seems to be unstable. When it works is great but can’t rely on the router to stay on. I switched to a netgear. So far signal is stable.

Good price for the model.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The package contains very little information on how to set it up. Everything has to be done online. I had to call Linksys tech support and allow them to take control of my computer in order to set it up. With my previous Linksys router purchased years ago, there was an installation disc included that did all the work of setting it up and I was expecting the same with this one. Had I known it was such a problem to set up, I would not have purchased it. Also, it is supposed to cover "up to" 2000 sq. ft. of area but it barely does that. I should have purchased a more powerful unit.

Good one
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have being using this router for more than 4 months now, and I don't have anything to complain about. What I really like is its coverage; it's installed in my living room (same place where my old router used to seat), and I have good WiFi coverage in my two condominium bedrooms (this was a hassle with my old router). My internet service is up to 30Mbps and I use up to 6 devices, and this router seems to manage it very well because I do not feel any slow or lagged connections.

Linksys continues to evolve the router industry
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I'm a Linksys fan, and I've become a Linksys fan because of the great work they are doing. Routers used to be a very hard thing to understand, program, etc. Linksys has made those difficult chores something of the past. This latest iteration of router shows the advancements they have made. This router will give you amazing speed, with an easy setup, and unmatched reliability. As for the installation, you open the box. Plug it into your internet connection and an AC power outlet, download the app, connect to it in WIFI, put in the password on the bottom of the router, and you are all set. The app walks you through the rest. I had the router set up in a matter of minutes. Seriously. I've done setups on their app before, but this is so automated it literally walks you through each step without any gray areas. A novice person can set this up. The router itself will provide you with lightning fast speeds, utilizing your full internet connection. I had tested my old router setup and also this one, and there is no comparison. It is about 2x the speed of the last system. The app is laid out to make it easy for anyone to set up a system with the step by step instruction. It just works. It shows you what is connected to the router. Many options, but made with simplicity in mind. The best part? Their standalone velop repeaters will work with this, to expand signal even further. a small white box that plugs into your AC power outlet. All of this can be monitored via the app to see what devices are connected to which unit. As for range, this thing is a workhorse, a fast workhorse. It worked vey well, out into the street and even down the street. First time I have gotten that kind of raw power from a router, that it would get me that far!!! If you like to upgrade your slow routers, this is a great choice. Lots of devices (over 25 or them) and every single one of them connect to this router, all sharing the router doing streaming of shows, streaming music, lots of internet browsing with email, and even schoolwork online. No lag, no hiccups, just solid workhorse performance. The best part? This is compatible with the Velop system. You can use Velop range extenders with this and keep an eye on them in the app, to be sure they don't "go missing", which could be my kids pulling the, out of the outlet so they can use the outlet for something else. I can go plug back in the missing unit. Great job Linksys! Always a great job, making it a win/win.
