Needs better device management. Speed and configuration is simple enough as long as you are own on using a smart app

I guess my expectations were too high. I thought this would be a huge improvement over my 7 year old Apple AirPort Extreme setup. Well . . . it is not an improvement - even with wifi 6 devices. Additionally, set up is horrible. The app has glitches and freezes. I had to call tech support and spent almost 2 hours on the phone with a very nice person who helped as best she could. After several resets, etc., it is now working, but has a horrible time switching wifi 6 devices to 5Ghz (or anything faster). What this means is that often a wifi 6 capable device is stuck with speeds around 50Mbps (up and down) when the ISP provides gigabit. I have to turn off wifi on my phone or computer and then turn it back on to get it to connect at faster speeds. Sometimes that doesn't work and I have to "forget" that network and then join again. First day has not been good.

Excellent system to expand wifi throughout house with room to expand and add next gen devices. Simple to install and manage. We doubled bandwidth speeds and reached corners of our home and property not possible with the first gen Linksys Velop mesh system.

Super fast and great bandwidth. They connected easily. Wish they came with mounting hardware for the price you pay. Good for 195 connections. The jury is out on that. For tabletop hardware they could look less like speakers. Unless they worked as speakers.

When it works it’s great when it doesn’t well it’s a pain to get support to work. My child’s phone acts as an emergency medical notification and losing WiFi in the home is a problem. After two days I’m still working with Linksys and about to call bestbuy.

Very very unhappy with this product! It works one day and then not the next.. extremely frustrating with a house full of people.. would not recommend this product

Very fast with connected devices within your network. However, I couldn't connect my indoor security cameras to the router. Called customer support and they were not able to help me. So I returned it.

Want a wifi that will be the closest thing to future proof. Get this one. With the 3 nodes it is so versatile. Connect only 1 to the ethernet and it shares it across all 3 nodes. ***** 5 STAR PRODUCT *****

The setup was seamless and the device App interface is easy to use and to keep track of your wireless Network. 802.11 radio reception throughout the residence is definitely better now.

Finally upgraded from Apple's AirPort Extremes to a proper mesh system, and it's WiFi 6E to boot. Futureproofing ain't cheap, but so far, so good. Haven't had to reset them yet.

At the end of the day thats what its all about. I had a Linksys mesh with 3 extender nodes. I now have better and faster reception on all of my devices.

Amazing! Thought i would need all 3 for my 3k sq foot house but 2 is more then enough.

Amazing speeds. Unfortunately, the constant drops, even after separating bands and designating channels made this unusable.

Yea for this to work, it is better to go with the full three mesh system. Using it individually is no viable. PLus it is expensive for wifi 6e.

For the price of these and the 150 device bragging we are running 50 and it seems to struggle, great parental control but limited to 14 devices

This item is amazing no more buffering very fast internet and Best Buy has been so helpful and helps you set it up.

The best Wi-fi system I have owned. I have a two-story home. I have strong Wi-fi in every corner of my home.

The finest mesh system we have owned. Had a velop ac setup, then tried an Asus WiFi 6 setup. Wish I had skipped the Asus setup….

Great mesh router solution. You get what you pay for, this is no exception. Highly recommend this one.

Great WiFi mesh, I have both the mx8503 and this mx8502 for 5 mesh devices to cover my residence
