    Solid device. Rogue company

    The device is solid. But the company is clearly on the way to be consumer hostile. I wouldn't recommend. The mobile app setup process requires a linksys account (or they hide it so well a 10+ year IT industry person cannot find the way around it). This gives me no benefit at all. Why'd a normal consumer alter their router away from home? This only gives the company access to my most important internet device. Why are they so determined? Clearly they want to monetize it some time. Other small stupidities: 1. There is a commercial link on the web admin page that cannot be moved or removed 2. The admin password has to be 10 long with upper,lower letters numbers and special chars. This is stupidly complex. It provides little protect to the security, only to encourage leaving the password unchanged, making the security worse.

    Mesh is amazing. If you haven't used it yet when creating a Wi-Fi network it's absolutely worth the upgrade in equipment.

    Did not meet expectations……Wi-Fi was weak, no options to customize settings such as;(channel/bandwidth)……No type of smart connection, just a plain old basic router w/ 6GHz band….I don’t even have anything that connects to the 6 GHz yet, so basically I purchased a dual band router w/ WI-FI-6 & WPA3 for +500.00. NO! I DON’T THINK SO! Returned after a week of use!

    This router was ok. Not what I expected. It wasn't playing nice with my switch. Once connected to the switch it will slow down in transmission speeds. I used another router and switch and it worked fine. LAcking port control for speed in the interface. It is very limited.

    It's a good and reasonable price for 6e WIFI router. I replaced the ASUS RT-AC5300 by this one. So far, this one provides me with stable network connectivity in both wired and wireless. I'm happy with this one! :)
