    Buying this router has made a huge difference in my internet speed. My download speeds take a fraction of the time that they used to, and I can actually do online gaming now. Very useful if you live in close proximity to other routers. It's pricey, but if you want fast internet, it's worth it.

    Was previously using an older router and had trouble receiving connectivity throughout the house. Since we have hooked this up it has improved speed and am able to connect anywhere around my home. Also has guest access so that it won’t slow down when people are over using the internet

    It seems like i go through wifi routers every 4 years, not sure why buy getting to be pretty predictable. This time around I wanted something with a bit nore range. This certainly fit the bill. Our house is 2800 sq. Ft and this easily covers it including my front yard. The setup was linksys easy - I commend them on how quick you can be up and running. I am oleased with this router. Hope it lasts as least 4 years like the other one.

    Great trI band router with multiple configuration elements allowing you to set up guest networks which is great when friends and family come over. Range is excellent in and around the house. Sometimes it seems to good as my cell won’t disconnect until I am a half block away

    This router was easy to set up and the speed is a LOT better than before. We are able to have many computers going at once. The X-Box1 is still glitchy at times though, even with other comuters off. I think it is the internet provider who is the problem, not the router....

    So far I have noticed an increase in overall speed and reliability. Set up was straight forward and instructions were fairly thorough and clear. Penetration through walls appears no better than the Net Gear product this one replaced.

    It was time to update/upgrade my wireless router to keep up with the demands of streaming 4K videos, gaming and the use of multiple devices at the same time. I found this model and it met the features I was looking for in a new wireless router. So far so good.

    Our old router was old, outdated, and way past needing to be upgraded. We decided on this one and it's been awesome! It has a lot of different controls you can set online that our other one didn't and that makes it helpful to keep an eye on everything. The setup was also fairy easy. It gets the wifi all throughout our home (our old one was spotty) and doesn't get bogged down by a couple phones and televisions streaming movies/shows all going at the same time. We will recommend this to our family and friends. It's well worth what the price that's asked for it.

    I was recommended to get this while it was on sale, so I read the reviews and decided to buy. It was fairly simple to set up, getting my computer to stay logged on initially was a pain tho. So far I’ve had it a week and it’s gave me a great connection.

    This thing works great! My wireless download speed nearly matches my actual bandwidth. Setup was really easy and fluid, and the admin interface is simple to navigate. I love that I can connect my external HDD to it and access it from all of my devices.

    Wow what a difference, I use to have the modem/router from comcast always had to call to complain about speed. They always blamed it to my house. I decided to buy this router and I love it it's worth every penny!!! I definitely recommended to everyone!!

    I had a very old LinkSys wireless router and decided on this one after looking around. I've always been impressed with LinkSys and they didn't disappoint with this router either. It was quick and easy to install. My speeds in the house went from an average of 20 Mbps to an average over 120 Mbps. This router has done exactly what we needed and expected it to do. We have it in the center of the house so we don't have any issues with signal strength anywhere in the house. I would recommend it if you're looking for a good mid-range router.

    It didn't take long to set this router up and do some minor customization on the network name and we were up and running in less than 30 minutes. I love the fact that it have a secured guest connection option. I would highly recommend this router.

    I purchased this router on a Black Friday deal for half off. My wife and I had been thinking of switching from the cable company’s gateway/router for our triple play to a phone/internet modem and our own router for better performance. The gateway/router we had pulled in 300 - 350 mbps over Ethernet on our 300 plan but WiFi would only get me 45 - 90 mbps on my iPhone on the 2nd floor with the gateway on the first. After installing the Linksys ac2200 router to an Arris modem and getting identical results over Ethernet, I pulled down 150 with a momentary 204 mbps on my iPhone over 5ghz WiFi on the second floor. Also, my HP officejet pro 8620 that would fall off the network daily with a static IP and need to have WiFi turned off and back on to reconnect, now stays connected to the network. This was definitely worth the expense.

    Another great linksys product. Upgraded as my older one wasn’t adequate for all my new devices. Very easy set up that the most basic beginner could complete it. I have a 2400sq foot home with lots of devices and it covers the area perfectly.

    My old netgear router was so slow; I wasn’t getting near the speed I was paying for. Before I got maybe 10 to 20 mbps and now I get 220 mbps and I only pay for 200. The range is decent for my three story town house and I get good signal everywhere. The app interface is awesome and super easy to use. You can control every setting from the app and even prioritize which devices you want to get the most signal, which comes in handy for streaming. Overall, I would highly recommend getting this router especially when it’s on sale.

    Had a netgear ac1900 that bricked itself by updating firmware. Purchased the ac2200 links us to replace it, and couldn’t be happier. Easier setup and user face, and great WiFi range.
