    Our old router, we had to unplug it and plug it back in every day to keep our wifi going. This one doesn't make us do that at all. Nice!

    Works like it should. Right out of the box. This is a managed switch so you need to set it up. Just follow the quick start and your in.

    Wireless Router

    This is a really good router for a smaller house/apartment. It is definitely very fast but I lose some of my signal about 2 rooms away. I think they have stronger ones at Best Buy if you have a bigger house but for my apartment, it works perfectly! Also very easy to set up and has cool features such as limiting children's use at specified times etc.

    Was easy to set up. It allowed me to get rid off many extra cables. I no longer get bumped off the net when streaming video whether on my laptop or Roku. This replaced a very old Linksys which had given many years of service.

    I have only had it for a few weeks, but I have not had any issues so far. It was easy to install and setup was relatively quick too. We use it for our home network. I spent a couple dollars more (between $2 and $5 at the time) to buy the Linksys over the cheaper brands because I feel that they have a better reputation. In business, reputation should be worth something. It was cheaper on Best Buy's website than in store, so I just pulled it up on my phone and showed it to the clerk. They matched their own price. The only reason that I do not give it a 5 star rating is because I have only had it for a short time period. I have never had one not work out of the box, but the better routers are the ones that tend to last longer than the others. My experience comes from setting up small networks for homes and businesses for 5 years in a previous job. Good deal overall!

    My old router was on its last legs, and finally got to the point of not giving me a secure connection, for some strange reason (no matter how I tried to configure it, it would not lock down my wifi). I decided to buy a new unit, so I went to our local Best Buy store and inquired about exactly what model would be the best for my needs. I wish I could remember the employee's name, but he took me to the row that had different kinds and types of routers, asked me some questions about how I used my computer, laptop, and other internet devices at home. I replied to his questions and he showed me the Linksys Wireless-N router, and said "This is exactly what you need". It took me less than ten minutes to connect to my PC and format the secure connection....... voila - no more problems! Oh, and I forgot to mention..... the price was easy on my wallet, as well. I'm a happy customer, and would recommend this product to anyone. Thanks, Best Buy!!

    Great wireless router for the price. It doesn't have the best range, but you'll be okay in an apartment or small-medium house. Speeds are good. Very very easy to set-up, can't mention that enough.
