    This router had more range than I was expecting. I was worried I would need a mesh system as well, but this router gets a great signal on all 3 stories including the concrete basement.

    I'm not used to having an app for router management. Didn't really want to make an account just to use the product, nor am I excited about another place for my info to be hacked but whatever. Product is flawless. I can get about 200 feet outside my home with usable coverage on tablets and phones. In home is great. Good features, easy guest network management, couldn't easily find a way to split the 2.4ghz and 5.8ghz spectrums though. Had one device that was Alastair to old to connect to wifi6?

    All I can say is WOW!!!! My wifi was so slow and could hardly Stream a movie While gaming... while that might not be an issue for most, I'm sure you could imagine that creating a problem having children at home... this thing will run 2 gas computers, 2 tvs, and an XBOX all at once with each device at only 34 ping. Definitely worth the purchase!!!

    I've had this Linksys Route for a few months now. The installation was a breeze. Works well in an average size resident. Linksys offers an app to control your route which is a plus.

    Purchased this to upgrade my in-laws home WiFi. They were coming from a pretty old router and this has been a nice upgrade. Very easy to set up and use and seems to have a good signal throughout their house.

    I love this LinkSys router! It meets my needs and I like the ability to log into the router to make any changes and manage the router. What I ESPECIALLY love is the Linksys customer service/tech support. I had changed ISP's and the advertised speed was coming into the router but was limited going out. I contacted Linksys tech support and they were on top of helping me fix my issue and were extremely friendly in the process.

    This replaced a wi-fi router that was about 5 years old. It is about 2-3 weeks old. So far, it has worked consistently without wi-fi dropping in and out. Ookla's Speedtest shows download speeds of up to around 150-170 Mbps and upload speeds of 9-11 Mbps on a 1-year old laptop. (Hard-wiring to the ethernet cable usually shows download speeds of about 200 Mbps, which is what Spectrum claims.) There are times when it is much slower, say around 30 Mbps download. When that happens, I have found that speeds often increase a lot if I disconnect wi-fi and then reconnect about 10 seconds later.

    A Much-Needed Upgrade at a Great Price

    I purchased this router at the sale price as a gift for my brother-in-law. I upgraded his router from AC to AX, and the difference is noticeable for sure. This router covers their house with no issues. It allows you to separate your 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands which is handy when you have a lot of IoT devices that do not require the 5 GHz bandwidth. Additionally, it allows for the creation of a guest network so that you can keep your private network from being accessed when you have guests at your home. The router allows for setup via the mobile app, but after setup you do have the option for Web console access.
