    Router works great. Consistently supports about 20 devices. I just added some home automation, and a new a/v set up, and it handles everything like a champ.

    For the price this thing fails on all levels. Does it work as a WiFi router with triple radios, yes. Does it have good Range and throughput, yes again. Can it support USB connections for use with network attached Storage, not really. Linksys failed when they designed and manufactured this giant paperweight to use a know vulnerable SMB1 protocol for accessing the connected storage. Windows 10 "WILL NOT" connect to storage on this device without the user installing the CIFS SMB1 protocol (30+ years old). The router is still for sale in retail outlets but has not had a firmware update in 2+ years! Why is it still being manufactured and sold??? Linksys does not support their products. Going back to ASUS once I get some use out of my 390 bucks wasted on this thing.
