    I have had this wi-fi system for a month and a half and no problems whatsoever. No crashes or streaming issues since I purchased this router. I would recommend.

    Decent customer service makes up for buggy nodes

    I've 2 of my 3 nodes fail since I bought this, but Linksys's customer service is decent, and both were replaced. The only out of pocket costs I had to deal with were shipping the failed units back. The strength of the network was enough to cover my house with just 2 units at a time, so. Neither of the replacement nodes has had an issue, so the bugginess may be confined to the V1 version

    The installation process was a nightmare. Took forever to install with my ISP. It did not like it. Worked pretty good at first but then all of a sudden the parental controls stopped working and it will just randomly disconnect. The speed is good when it works. For the amount of money this cost you would think it would be more reliable. Very disappointed!!

    Pretty Good

    Quickly the positives; 1) Very Easy setup 2) Blazingly fast, with right equipment 3) I think they have esthetically pleasing shape. Maybe someone can come up with some wraps for the nodes, to better fit with different decors? The negatives; 1) Price - but I suspect most homes could due with 2 nodes which would be cheaper. 2) Only 2 ethernet connections per node. 3) Very small area to get your hands into to plug/unplug ethernet cables. 4) No usb Specifics; When I picked up the delivered box, I thought why is this so big/heavy? Well the packing is top-notch as others have mentioned. It was very easy to go thru and unpack the contents. 1) Setup- I was skeptical when I noticed the only way to set-up the nodes was using a phone/tablet app. But I have to say it wound up being the easiest install I have done - and I have installed/replaced several modems/routers in my life. I was patient and followed the apps step by step instructions. And 15 minutes later I was up and running with a base and 1 node working fine. To speed along the process I used the same network name and password as before. So once I was done with the setup all of my devices connected with no issues. One of the great things with the new mesh networks is being able to move about the house and being connected/passed to one or another of the nodes seemlessly. Wi-fi extender addons are cheaper for existing systems but you wind up having to connect/re-connect to base wi-fi or extender network as you move from ones range to the other. 2) Speed - I am still using an older Netgear modem model 3000Dv2 (I turned off its built in wi-fi and it only had 2.4 ghz). So the speeds I am going to mention probably would be better with newer multi-channel modem with higher transfer rates. I have a 2 story house with the base upstairs at one end and the extension node downstairs at other end. The speeds downstairs went from 22 mbps to over 175 - using devices able to use 5ghz and AC compatible. For the devices that werent AC (only N) compatible using wi-fi I went from same 22mbps to over 66. Also for my gaming station I connected using ethernet cable to be able to get the fastest connection, since it only had N capability. I think this system is for someone who has everything connected using wi-fi. If however you use multiple ethernet hard wired devices, as I do, you may have some problems. Each node has only 2 ethernet connections and no USB. In my case this wasnt an issue as I have a Netgear unmonitored ethernet switcher model GS108 with 8 ports. I use it to connect to 2 desktops, 2 smart devices and my networked printer. For most probably not an issue but thought it worth mentioning.. End thought is that this is definitely an upgrade from N and coverage/speed is great. But if you mostly connect using wireless and currently have only N 2.4 ghz connection capability you probably should consider upgrading to AC wireless adapter(s) for your device(s), if possible, to get full value and speed of the Velop. Or use ethernet hard wire (wires are pretty cheap) if possible

    Feels like we've amped up the power of our existing wireless access. The Velop system helps us eliminate the frustration of competing for wifi and the battle against dead spots in our home.
