    I was having problems with my network connections. They kept dropping at anytime, and then I would have to restart my computer to get a connection again. With the new router, I don't have that problem anymore. I also upgraded my modem from the cable company.

    I have installed over 20 of these routers with no problems. It is perfect for regular home use or even a small business. Easy setup even for the first time user with furnished software. Wireless range is good for the average size house. 1200-1800 square feet.

    Installation was easy and simple to set up. Service is excellent so far. The Linksys I replaced was a good unit but lasted only two years. This unit is heavier duty and should be great.

    I love that this allows all of us to use your data phones, Ipad, kindle, Xbox and Netflx. Sometimes we knock each other off, but our major uses are covered and we have wifi when and where we need it! Great for a family of 4 with young teenagers with electronics!

    Bought this wireless router due to Comcast notifying me that my equipment would not maximize their internet bandwidth potential. To my surprise Comcast was correct. My home network ran smoother and media such as Netflix and YouTube loaded quicker than before. .

    I have had this router for about 2 years in my office, and it seems to work well. Once in a while, there are some connection problems, but I, usually, find that the internet was down or having problems in our area when this happens.

    Install is a breeze...used with RF internet modem. Apps work well after a one time set up. Range could be better, have had other routers in same location that had much better range. Is very nice to use iphone for WPS when setting up items away from the router.

    This router is perfect for a home network. We have had absolutely no trouble accessing our wifi with our numerous devices. The salesman was super helpful in showing us various routers and helped us select the best one for the price we wanted to pay.

    This router replaced my older one that constantly lost connection. Set up was easy, but somewhere along the line, my Windows Media Center connection between PC and Xbox stopped working. Haven't figured that one out yet, but the router works as advertised.

    I have had other cisco products and really like them. They are easy to set-up, very good quality and last forever! AND they have THE BEST customer service for electronics - their folks are patient, very helpful and really nice to work with. Love this brand.

    I bought this router based on the Cisco reputation. I was very surprised and pleased to find it extremely user friendly. All instructions were very clear. I had it set up and all my wireless dvd players and laptops online with it within 30 minutes.

    I bought this model because it is supposed to have much greater range of signal than the one I had. However, it does not have any greater range than my previous one. If I had known that, I would have bought a more inexpensive model.

    Works well now, but had issues with installation. Installed and then my download/upload speeds decreased by a factor of ten. Had to completely uninstall it all and reinstall it. Works great after that. Really like the phone app.

    This has been a great router so far - we needed something more sophisticated and able to handle the increasing number of phones,laptops,printers,etc. in our home now - most of them used in my Real Estate business. We're very happy with it!

    We bought this to replace a 5-yr old Linksys which was giving us WiFi issues. We've been very happy with the product - haven't had to fiddle with it since installation. We run two laptops and a wireless printer in a small home office.

    I needed to replace an old router that was bumping me off frequently. I am a home user who mostly uses it for streaming Netflix or paying bills and browsing Facebook. It has been a solid connection and has given am zero problems.

    It met my needs for a replacement for a lightning damaged Linksys WRT54G. It has a better signal when matched with the AE1200NP USB Wireless USB Adapter. Works as expected. The Smart WiFi features I could do without.
