Overall nice design and like the app for the phone. Nice feature being able to turn of the indicator lights. The flashing on the wall behind was distracting.

We had an older Linksys (from Best Buy), which stopped working. We have a large house and asked the sales agent to recommend a good router for a larger home. He recommended this router, adding that it has great range and capabilities. As it turns out, it isn't quite as good as portrayed. It often has unreliable signal; therefore, it is very slow and does not allow the use of Skype.

I would highly recommend this router to anyone wanting to use a wireless router in their house. This is the 4th router that I have purchased and seems to work the best.

Is a great router. We were struggling with our router not supporting all of the technology in the house. After we installed the new router everything worked smoothly!

This not only works great, it is attractive! I have it out on my entertainment center and it's not even noticeable. Major improvement from my last big blue box.

Linksys EA3500-NP dual-band wireless router has a very good range, fast and reliable connection. It is not that cheap, but you get a value for the money.

The unit is ok, but not great, FOR ME. I think because I have plaster walls instead of sheetrock, the signal does travel throughout the house as well.

Very happy with this! My connection is much stronger and much more reliable. However, it was a pain to get set up! But once up, I've had no problems at all.

Ok Router for basic needs

I purchased this because of the price and what it offered. When I first turned it on it was a little difficult to get into the router as linksys wants you to create a website log in just to get into your router. You can bypass this but is a pain. Really don't like that. It Offers basic options and does not let you customize very much. Not sure I like the router.

Glad I stepped up to a higher capacity router. We run many electronics at home off the Wi-Fi all at one time and it has handled them all with ease.

It's obviously a good router but not the best. I got it cause I wasn't depending to game with it. But it's great for doing what you need done.

From the time I took it out of the box to the time I was up and running on the web was no time at all. The performance has been far superior to my last router.

Works fine. The smart wifi control with my iphone is pretty handy. The parental controls could be a little more user friendly but it works.

It is good. We should have bought a bigger one for all the items we use at once. But if one person is not home works great with having less items
