Buy one. It's a winner, I love it. Gotta have it!!!

This is very easy to use and creates fast streaming

Aside from better wifi coverage for my "stuff" I really like the design of the unit which is cleaner and does not glow in the dark with lights running up and down in the front . My wife and guests would cover the old unit with a cloth to dim the light.

was easy to install and worked well from the start

using small apartment. Loose signal frequently....

I've used Linksys routers for a long time, so when I had to pick up a new one, there was no doubt what I wanted. But I'm extremely disappointed in the E2500. Even on the 2.4Ghz band, about 20 feet away from the router the signal gets really poor. And even if you show a strong signal, your transfer speed is still shoddy. Beyond that, the firmware is extremely unstable, leaving the router unable to actually create and maintain wireless connections, and unable to even generate the Management pages. When this happens, the only solution is to pull the power and reboot it that way. But it's not a once in a month thing, either. it's random, and can even happen every day or every other day. The setup was extremely easy, and the interface on the Management page is easy to understand, but it doesn't make up for the poor performance I've seen on two of these.

I replaced a Netscape Router which crapped out after only a year and a half with this one. Easy to install and seems to work effortlessly even after a power surge or restart the equipment loads up quickly

It works well for as many wifi connections we have at one time. The instructions stated it could be setup without using the software disk provided, but I couldn't get it to work and I'm a techy person. However, it was setup within a few minutes using the disk.

Linksys router is great. It was easy to setup and start using very quickly. Connection for all devices was a breeze. It is a bit pricey. Also, it only comes with 90 days support. If you have issues after that you have to pay for help - not something I'd expect from Cisco nor for the price of the product.

I've had this one month. No issues so far. I upgraded from my cable providers internet Gateway to save money. I like that it has a password protected guest account. I've always had positive experiences with this brand in the past.

It's taken the industry years, but finally, a wireless router where you just insert the CD into your computer and away you go. Al set up, with personally named network and password,in a few minutes. i can vouch for it--it's idiot-proof and works flawlessly. Congrats to Linksys engineers/product people.

This is a great router from a well known brand. I needed to update my router and simply went with the same brand I had before. No problems with set up, very simple. Working well so far.

The price is reasonable. The signal strength is not as strong as I expected. My older router had stronger signal. However, my connection is fine and doesn't drop. IThe Xbox also connects and its on the 2nd floor whle the router is in the basement. 'm satisfied.

Lesson learned when I fried my Netgear router as it was plugged into the wall instead of a surge protector during a storm. Got this to replace it. Works well, but occasionally have to turn it off, then back on again for some reason.

My only real complaint is minor. My old router had small indicator lights that showed what was working and what was not. I found it handy, but not a deal breaker since none in the store had them.

I can use my laptop to surf the web, play games via Steam, and play PS3 games wirelessly. No problems with connectivity, very minor and rare signal strength problems, but these might be from my ISP than the device itself.

Adam in the geek squad was very helpful to me picking out my new router he explained how easy it was so set it up. He helped me on my last one 4 years ago. He is an asset to your company. He takes time to explain everything. He is the main reason I keep shopping at Best Buy

The installation was very easy and fast. I was expecting a bit more speed since I have a very fast modem, but haven't noticed any difference. A product that does the job, but is nothing special.

It's a wireless router. It does what a wireless router is supposed to do. I have no negative comments about it. I can't speak for the setup wizard as I have never used it. I just used the browser interface. If you've ever set up a router that way you'll encounter nothing puzzling.

This is a great wireless router. Since Linksys is owned by Cisco this is no surprise. I don't have extremely high demands for a wireless router (i.e. online gaming) but it does well streaming HD from Amazon Prime. My only gripe is that you can't mount it vertically, like a book.
