    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    More cost effective. Get video history for much longer period included in purchase. Nest only gives 4 hours unless you buy Nest Aware. Easy to install.

    I pay for 45 mbps speeds from ATT and was typically getting 15-20 mbps at a time while using their equipment. With this router, I easily reach my 45!

    Nice router

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I actually like this router. Before I brought the EA9500 I was using the WRT1900ACS. When I brought another Samsung smart tv, I noticed that my internet was lagging when I went online from my PC. I take it my new tv was hogging all the bandwidth, and I have more than 11 devices in the house that are wireless. So I decided to upgrade my router to the EA9500, and I haven't had any problems with getting online from my PC at all. All my wireless devices worked with no problem. I even Streamed 4K content from YouTube channels with no issues.

    Awesome Wireless router

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I love the router and the only reason I gave it 4 out of 5 is sometime it will stop all internet for a split second and reconnect. Other than that it has lightning fast speed.

    Super fast stable connection, all day, everyday. Really like the 8 Ethernet ports on the back instead of the standard 4. Game changing.
