This is the best router I have found for use of multi devices of 7+ without slow page loading. Very easy to install and easy to read instructions. Even has a help phone line if you need it. I would recommend this router above all the rest that I have seen.

Range of this device barely covers a 1500 sq ft house. It is quick when you're close, but as you lose signal strength it is not near as fast. I was led to believe the signal strength on this device was extremely good, but I don't find that so.

I am not the best at technology and this was very easy to set up. I have had some drops in the connection but, to be fair, I am upstairs/downstairs and do not get the best signal strength. My cell phone rarely registers more than two bars (it is the area I live in) so this product really does a good job! It is used only for a laptop and roku for now but will (hopefully) soon be adding an additional smart TV.

I had moved up to a 50 M internet service, found that my old 10/100 router was a bottleneck. Went shopping. This had a good price. Setup was easy.

It was easy to set up. The CD was the standard follow the prompts, and set up a wireless password, etc. Basically a great router. More expensive ones might have been faster, but this one was all I needed. I'm a bit partial to Cisco/Linksys stuff, as I've used this brand for years and I've not had great experiences with other brands.

When the cable company re-appropriated their wireless router, I was concerned about finding a replacement that would offer range (house is 4 stories with the router on the 2nd) but not cost too much. This router fit all my requirements AND looks pretty slick. I can now work in the front bedroom - which I couldn't do previously - and the cost was very reasonable for performance.

It's a very good router. I choose this over the Netgear product because I had a Netgear product before and I choose to switch to Lyksymt.

Great Router for a home

I bought this for my widowed mother so she could access our Netflix account. She is retired and has battled cancer and is thankfully in remission...but this has left her homebound for the most part. She watches a lot of television and did not have wireless in her home. She was under the impression that she had to pay extra on her Direct TV bill to get it so she never pursued getting it. So, I got it for her for Mother's Day and now she uses it EVERY day. She has never complained about anything going wrong with it, so I consider that a success!

Got this router to replace my older Linksys router since the old router was not passing the full speed through my network. This router is working well so far. Its nice that it includes a USB to plug in your external HD, printer, or anything else you'd like shared on your network.
