    From start to finish I am extremely happy. Mike in the installation bay is nothing but friendly & professional. He has been involved in my other trucks as well getting new audio componenets and remote starts.

    It was just what I needed. I woke up that day thinking, self, you really need a black box with two antennae that looks like a giant ant head, then, BAM, Best Buy had it! I recommend this to anyone looking for a giant ant head.

    Very difficult to connect to the internet without an iphone. I spent hours on the phone with customer service. Expensive. I have used the same brand routers for years, but this was the worst.

    Whole house wifi and easy setup. This is used at a central location on the first floor, and we do not have any dead spots. We have not had to reboot the router after the initial install, and everything has really been stable.

    200 mbps upload/download speeds, I am about 20 feet away from the router using WIFI. I like it and it hasn't given me any issues so far, and I game on my computer. (I have a gigabit internet connection).

    This router worked well for me as a single user but once my son and grandson moved in with me (both gamers) I found that it frequently needed to be rebooted.

    Got this to replace our old router which kept making us reset the internet every few hours. It’s been about a month and haven’t had to reset it since. The app Linksys recommends for this is extremely helpful and easy to setup.

    This router is ok. I think way too much is being pushed to use the mobile app instead of traditional setup though. Slim design is good. Does NOT include mounting screws.

    Good product for the price connection has been stable so far. Hope it stays that way as I add more device as I have only six connected so far and it says it accommodates 12.

    Finally got it to work with a lot of telephone help. Does not come with instructions so plan to spend phone time if you are technologically ignorant as I am.

    Loved the dual-band on this router. Our doorbell only works on the 5Ghz band. Some older devices only work on 2.7GHz. The setup seems to require a bit of technical knowledge.
