    This router was so easy to set up. With just a few clicks it was up and running. My other router, an old Netgear, was not very easy so I was pleased by that. The only complaint that I have is that sometimes it drops my tablet connection. It is quickly remedied so no biggie there. My son has the same router and he suggested it so I decided to go for it. I think you would not be disappointed if you bought this router.

    In our apartment, we could not get signal strength in a few places as the walls are concrete. With this smart wi-fi router, we have signal strength everywhere. We have 3 devices and are planning to add another 3, including a work laptop which currently uses a port, but is about to be made wi-fi cspable. We also have an old laptop not wi-fi capable so the extra ports have come in handy. Thanks Linksys and Best Buy.

    No problems with router, but I have not experienced any significant improvement over my old linksys 1000 model in either speed or video streaming.

    Seems to be working well but had some challenges with the setup. May have been the ISP's fault so that's why I still gave a high rating.

    Setup easily in minutes, works great, seems to not need regular reboots like all the routers I've had before. I reboot it every couple weeks out of habit and previous experience, but it seems perfectly fine. This one is linksys by cisco, which is great. I heard linksys recently was bought by belkin, which is bad news.. Oh well, I suspect things will change, cause my belkin router was rubbish.
