Got this on sale for my parents house, and it covers the entire 4k sq ft house really well, no dead spots or range extenders needed. Range is so good im afraid the neighbors might start leeching because their internet is slower speed...

I switch to this route from my previous Motorola Comcast Modem/Router. My old one is only a single band router, without any guest logins. For this one, I want to say, the signal is very strong, with 1 2.4g and 2 5g band, you could set up all your device in right directions. And also, you could treat your guest very well,without interrupting any current devices. And also, there is a USB port at the back of the device, which you could connect an easy NAS. It's easy to set up, you may finish everything under instructions within 15 min.

This new Tri-band Wi-Fi Router is performing great so far. I was losing signal strength with my old system, but not now! Being able to isolate devices to their best bandwidth matchups was a breeze! Perfect system for the apartment.

This is the second Linksys AC2200 router I purchased because I liked our first one so much. Now have one at cabin and one at home. The first has been in use for 9 months and has never dropped signal even once. Both have good range and speed, poviding coverage within entire two-story house and outdoors at cabin. Can even get good signal 100 feet from cabin at end of dock. I appreciate that it automatically updates firmware to keep security featues up to date. Has more features than I will ever use.

I was running both wired and wireless Internet access through the router that Centurylink supplied with my account and I was having severe stuttering and buffering in my streaming media. On a Black Friday sale I picked up this router and replaced the Centurylink-provided Arris device and it has made all the difference in the world. Once a show buffers I don't get a single stutter since putting this AC2200 into action. All of my wireless devices have stepped up from the 2.4 Ghz wireless band to the 5Ghz wireless band and it has made a ton of improvement. I also combined the router upgrade with a device upgrade for my main living room TV (from Google Nexus Player to Roku Premiere +) and the bump up in processing power has fixed all of the issues I was having. Very happy with this purchase!

I purchased this router during black Friday weekend to replace a dated dual band router. Wow, works excellent and easy setup with great little app to monitor an configure router. Definitely would recommend this product to anyone.

It nearly triple my download speed from an older Linksys I had. It is reasonable being I had a very old model, the reason why I stuck with Linksys. Great range and smooth set up and got it on sale for $100....can’t beat that.

So far its working well. Only had it about a week. Might be 5 stars if still working well after a few months. I needed something to clean up or direct increased internet traffic from all the devices on our home network; kids phones, laptops, desktop, DISH receivers, chromecast, etc.. It was fairly easy to set up.

Bought this router to replace our current one as the speeds kept getting slower and slower. Setup for this one was a breeze. I set it up both ways, it has a wizard to help you set it up or you can opt to set it up manually. The wizard was easy and fast. We have 15-20 devices connected to the WiFi and have not seen any issues. We're actually getting connection speeds over what we're supposed to be getting. This is a great router with great technology to max connection speeds and reaches everywhere in the house.

My friend commented about how hard my wifi sucked and asked if I even gigabit.
After that I didn't want to have a poor persons router anymore so I popped for one of these babies.
I live in a three story town house. My router is in the front room on the second story -mounted to the wall near a window behind my power glove. I used the wifi analyzer app to find the best channel. Here are the 2g speed tests for various locations in and out of my townhouse. Back porch 10+/2, first floor by back door (inside) for my "roku" 40/6, first floor living room by front door 50/6, outside front door for "ring doorbell v2" 40+/6. Second floor in room with router 50/6. I don't care about the third floor. 5g has great speed but the range is scetch so I don't use it : (
Overall good and a definite improvement over my old school netgear WNDR3400v3 router.

My house is not big, about 1800 sq ft. The download speed maintains great throughout my whole house. Now I get good signals even when I am in my back and front yard.

I was in need for an upgrade from a router that was a dinosaur in current tech terms. I did a bit of research and chose this great unit because it is at the fore front wifi tech which is now the foundation of my home network. It is powerful enough to spread internet accessibility to all of my devices. The signal is strong in my 700sq foot apartment. Internet speed on my devices have never been this fast.
And I like the stealth bomber type design.
Like my gram always said "you get what you pay for!"

This router is super fast and works well. I have had it a little over a month and it has not needed rebooting. It provides wireless speeds of 320mbps on my gigabit connection. I get about 730mbps on the wired side.

Needed to upgrade the router provided by Optimum to get better range and am very impressed so far. Still haven’t tested the Ethernet but hopeful the gigabit ports will end the buffering on Netflix and other apps.

I have always loved linksys systems but after reading all the bad reviews about there current customer service I wasn't sure about trying them again. I am so glad we did. Although set up wasn't as easy as they made it appear, it was a great choice. Our range was improved greatly and our download speeds are lightning fast. Before we averaged 25-30 mbps download and 5 up. Now we get 68-73 mbps down and 6.2 up. Definitely worth the money and the set up hassle.
