    This printer replaced an older Canon. It was easy to install for wireless printing. The print quality is good. It is easy to operate. The only drawback is the price of the ink, but because we only do a dozen pages or so of printing a month, that's okay.

    I was reluctant to get a new wifi as my old one was still working but my broadband went out so opted to replace both. I was please with the easy installation and so far seems to cover every room in the house I have been in (including outside on my patio).

    My old router kept dropping off and I had to continually re-set it. Since installing this router I have not had to re-set it once. It was very easy to set up. During set-up you can change the password to more user friendly. However, after I did this I wanted to go back and change one of the passwords again and could not figure out how to do it.

    I picked this up about a month ago and have been very pleased with its performance. My prior router needed to be reset every couple of weeks in order to not be buggy. My internet connection has been solid enough to where I haven't even had to think about it or consider making changes to the settings after the initial setup.

    The router was easy to set up, has great range thru out the house and even outside the home. My house is around 1500sqft, so I am pleased with the service inside and to be able to use it out on the patio and other areas of my property is just what I was looking for and it works perfect for me. I like the guest feature you can turn on and off.

    Bought a another brand at a higher price but for some reason the 5 GHz did not work and I barely got any signal in my room. So I got this one and it had worked perfectly. The signal strengths weaken in my room but with this router I still get the desired speed.

    My old router died so I visited Best Buy to get a new router and I chose this Linksys model. I have some experience with computers but am not an expert and was worried that I would have difficulty installing it but my worries were unfounded. I just followed the instructions and was up and running without a glitch in 15 minutes.

    I had a different router and I would have to rebout it aprox. twice a week as it would kick all my devices off Wi-Fi . I have had this hooked up for about 1 month and I have had no trouble with it. It was also easy to install for a person who is not teck savvy

    We bought the router because we were having connectivity issues. We are still having issues, but discovered that it is due to something else. Therefore, it's hard to say how the router is working, but as a brand new one, at the $100 price point, we assume it's working fine because we are not experiencing issues, it works.
