    The firmware is a major step backwards. No option to turn off the WiFi. No option to access the external storage other than a computer. It is being returned as soon as I found out the firmware is lacking on important basic features. I will not be using Linksys routers anymore.

      Hi, angeljako,

      The Linksys MR7500 Mesh WiFi 6E Router has a web UI that you can access locally using the router's IP address. The web UI allows you to configure the WiFi settings and set up the External Storage feature of the router. Should you need assistance with the Linksys router, you can reach out to us at LinksysCares@linksys.com with the link to this review for our reference.

    Not as powerful as hoped, does not cover 2000 sq ft on 2 level brick home well. Kicked down to 2.4ghz channel, unless close to router. Went with Atlas mesh instead, way better coverage AND bandwidth. Just my experience....

      Hi, MIKEY,

      The Linksys Hydra Pro 6E should be able to deliver up to 2,700 sq. ft. of WiFi coverage. We could have tried to reposition one of the antennas to reach the 2nd level and made sure that the firmware is up to date. Should you need assistance, you can reach out to us at LinksysCares@linksys.com with the link to this review for our reference, and we'll have our Escalation Engineers assist you.

    Out of the box none of my Apple devices would connect. Had to seperate out the SSIDs for the five devices to connect. Then they would connect to the 5 mhz network but not have internet. Found the ip privacy setting on the phones that I had to turn off. That allowed the phones to connect to actually have internet. Apple TV still has no internet if connected to the 5mhz network. Finally today one apple device was connected but had no internet. Rebooted and hard booted thw phone, still mothing. Rebooted the router and everything was fine. All other devices were fine. The router randimly decided to block one device. Guess its going back.

    Serious firmware issues. After firmware update could no longer access router firmware settings. Kept getting login error contact costumer support. Tried all suggestions but failed to get it to work again. Returned it to Best Buy and got the NETGEAR NightHawk AX8 AX6600

    Do not buy, have had for 6 months and the wifi barely works, 10mbps when i get 850 wired on 1 gbps service... tech support literally was "restart the router, follow the troubleshooting guide on the website" which i did multiple times before calling them... linksys wont admit something is wrong with the wifi part of this router, they are doing everything they can do to avoid replacing it under warranty.

    One of the worst networking products!

    The range is horrible, the speeds are horrible over WiFi and hardwired, could only ever have about 10 wireless clients before it would knock a random one off to replace it. Setting up the mesh was actually pretty simple, though it just made network stability worse. I would lose connection for about 20+ min on Ethernet devices when the mesh was connected and using Ethernet for backhaul. I returned after 24hrs. I have a rule for products I buy. Setup must be simple, quick, an any sort of a hint of an issue in the first 24hrs or during setup. The product simply gets returned. I don’t troubleshoot, I don’t open support tickets, and I definitely do not provide any sort of diagnostic data to the product developer. Companies need to start handling QA themselves, and need to understand they don’t get to just put a box on the shelf and take money. Save yourself sometime, and be more entertained by not having internet, driving to the ATM, takeout $600 in cash, then put it on your grill and light it on fire. Seriously the worst, do not buy.
