Haven't had time to actually hook it up but I think it will make the wifi stronger in my kids room.

Was a little annoying at first with the built in setup wizard, but I was able to bypass that and then setup was familiar to me and easy.

I hate this thing. It works well enough most of the time, but getting it set up was awful, and trying to manage it now that it's setup honestly isn't much better. We just moved in and needed wifi because the cellphone signal in our house is abyssmal, but without a computer, it can only be managed from the app they make you download, so between having to use data to download it and wrestling with the app itself, it took almost an hour longer than it needed to. Even the cableguy who initially tried to set it up for us had trouble. I have a much cheaper linksys router that can be set up in 5 minutes very simply from the browser on my phone. I think the purpose of the app is to better manage your mesh network, and this router seemed like a good choice since we need a second router anyways to cover the other half of the house, but I'm honestly not sure if it's worth the trouble.

I think it works well for the home office. I would not recommend it for a business office. WIFI routing is covered throughout the house.

Having problems with setting up my Kada smart plugs with this router. Had to reinstall my old router to get plugs working good. Past return date so I guess I’ll have to keep this new one. Might try one more time to install and use smart plugs with it. It did help the WiFi but if it causes problems with smart plug it’s no use to me.

It's a good router but only goes so far. Nighthawk is where its at for gamers.

Great router. Definitely recommend Linksys over NetGear. I have had 2 (more expensive) NetGear routers go bad. No issues with Linksys (knock on wood).

Easy to set up. Does everything I need it to. My previous router didn’t have adequately robust encryption and this model has the latest protocols.

Using this as an access point and thus far no problems. i did have a little problem with setup but a call to linksys cleared it right up.

Nothing fancy, GUI works as expected. Linksys - MAX-STREAM AC1300 Dual-Band Mesh Wi-Fi 5 Router - Black, does exactly what it is supposed to do. Route traffic.

This product is great when you set it up but the set up process was a little tricky but other than that it’s a good product

This device was to small to send a wifi signal through out my house I returned it for a larger device.

I am very sure this is a great product, but found out I did not need it and returned it the next day. Thank you Best Buys for all you do.

You can’t set this up without using an app and having an existing Internet connection to the router. This does zero good if you are trying to set up a router THEN hook it to the net. It works otherwise but it’s an awful setup.

I thought it would give me better connection than my old one but its about the same but it does what I need I guess

Very nice and has lots of features. Wish it had the LAN lights on the front so you can tell which ones are active.

Great router to use if you are trying to cover a small area of a house or extended the WiFi in your house.

Best part is that we get right advice at bestbuy. For this too, I got right advice and bought right router.

Had my son install this router to existing modem and it made a significant improvement with our wifi signal.

Got it from friend recommendation. It has been running non-stop since the purchase date. It is a sturdy product.
