    Disappointed

    I've always liked Linksys, but I have to say I'm disappointed with this router. The older Linksys router with the 2 antenna seamed to work better than this newer high tech one.

    I needed another router since I have to have internet in my basement, main level and upstairs yet was not getting good coverage with just one router. This one has been working well for me.

    This was my first experience with a wireless connection. I have heard horror stories from friends and family, so I was apprehensive. Turned out to be an easy set up and very reliable connection for my laptop and smart TV.

    I have owned several Linksys routers and they have all performed well. It was easy to install and hook up. The coverage area does indeed cover our entire house - about 2,400 square feet.

    I was using and extended access point which kept dropping connections. Bought this router to create a independent network on the other end of my house which works great with no dropped connections.

    Signal strength is less than the Belkin router it replaced. The range is also about 20% less (in feet). Installation was fairly simple.

    I bought this router because another brand was giving me issues. I decided to stick to Linksys from now on. This router does not kick me out of websites like the other brand did.

    As a former networking guy I like to go in to the router through a browser and it made me go around installing the program which was a pain but other than that it's a really good home router even with multiple devices.

    I installed the same router at my mom's house and the only issue is having to have a password for guest users. I have to talk all the guests through how to connect with the password.

    The "easy" Connect setup wasn't compatible with OSX Mountain Lion, so I had to call in to customer support to set it up manually. I don't get strong signal in some areas of my house.

    This is a good router for basic wireless setup in the home. Have some issues where signal disappears for a few seconds about every other day, but returns quickly.

    Employee recommended this router and said this was what he used. It's been fine so far. My WI-FI has been a little slow but not the fault of the router.

    I purchased to replace E2000 router that was giving me range problems. Called Cisco for assistance but was just about same cost to buy new router. Purchased E2500 based on Best Buy employee recommendation. Was hoping Cisco Connect would work with this the E2500, but no luck. Had to set-up manually - pain in the. Spent 4 hours on phone multiple times to get everything set up correctly. I have always been a Cisco customer, but this tine I should have looked for the apple networking system, that is compatible with Apple products.

    We use this router all the time. It has gigabit ports and does wireless b-g-n. Setup can be a bit tricky if you want to do it manually but if you use the disk it's a pretty smooth installation.
