    This is a good product but it can only perform based on the internet speed your Service Provider provides to your home. A slightly lower version also works and can save you up to 10-20$.

    We purchased this router to replace another router. It was a easy decision to make since this was the same brand as our last one. We would definitely recommend it to anyone needing a router.

    The router has a great range. The data slows down only when I'm using 4 or more devices. Some of that has to do with my provider.

    The Linksys EA3500 works well for whole home wifi connections. I bought it to link satellite internet service to my desktop, and to use with internet VOIP service. So far, has been flawless.

    Easy set-up (easier than any I've used before). One think to look out for is that it will automatically add a guest host when you set it up. Easy to undo (just personal preference). Operates great!

    I bought this router to replace one that had failed. This is by far the easiest router I've ever installed. The setup is very straightforward. Just pop in the CD that comes with the router and follow the instructions. It also has a strong signal. Because our router must be in the basement, we previously had to use a second router upstairs to get a wireless signal in all areas of our home. Now the wireless signal can be received all through the house.

    We bought this router because the last router we had for about ten years and we were constantly losing our connection and having to reset the router to connect. The set up of this router and everything that connects to it has been laborious. Reprogramming everything to connect to it was a pain with TV's, computers, and printers. The connection is just ok and now we experience lag. I would not recommend this product. We bought this item on sale, but should have done a little more homework before buying.
