Great buy, best ever
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Have tried multiple routers before like net gear, and apple extreme but the Linksys Velop is the best. Easy to connect with the available app, option of extra nodes for extension and terrific performance. Even though expensive this is the router to get. Recommend it highly.

Ugh
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I read reviews, talked to Best Buy employees and even had the teenage “gamer” with me when I purchased these wireless routers. I’m so glad I only sprang for the 2 pack instead of 3. The area for this particular (highest package by Suddenlink available in our area) internet service isn’t large enough to have actually needed the third one. I absolutely hate these routers. They are constantly losing connection. Even when they are 20 obstacle free feet from each other. I was planning on returning them within the week of purchase, but an accident filled month kept me at a bedside in the hospital and then a rehab center. We have lived with the horrific service long enough. Tonight was the final straw. No devices were connected except the TV and we could not even watch a movie on Netflix. Finally hardwired into the modem and watched it on a 17” laptop. Ugh Ugh Ugh!!!!

Easy to set up and great coverage
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This was amazingly easy to set up and the coverage is fantastic. The best is that I don’t have to manually switch WiFi connections when I go to different parts do the house! Where I use to switch to connect to an extender. Well worth the investment!

Life-changing Wifi
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Velop is excellent! Dead-simple setup without ever getting on a computer, fast access in every corner of my house that was previously spotty, reliability (a month in so far) and trivial management and connection of devices from anywhere with your phone. Life-changing!

Great mesh system!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Our Spectrum router was garbage, and with the kids starting virtual school this year and a gaming husband, we needed something new that would be reliable and easy to use. Set up was easy and the range is awesome! Worth the $$!

Excellent
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Linksys was easy to setup and greatly extends the WiFi coverage that was provided by ‘enhanced’ router-modem provided by ATT. I had to request ATT to remotely turnoff the function on their device in order for the wireless printers to find the Linksys wireless network.

Works great when it works
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Purchased a three node system and placed in a 3,400 square foot single level home. Added another node for a total of four as coverage would drop off or completely drop. When using WiFi calling, which I must use due to poor signal strength, the call will drop. Never had this issue with my Nighthawk X-6 but would get beyond the range of the Nighthawk. Even paid to have the Geek Squad come out and check the system and said it was fine. So not sure what the issue is other maybe I should have looked at other mesh systems. Would only recommend if you have the funds to keep adding nodes, looking at adding a 5th one as am in so deep with the existing one that to scrap and start over would be expensive.

Just works. Great signal everywhere
||Posted . Owned for more than 2 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.In my house, my Internet comes in on the far end of the house, actually over the attached garage, and on the wrong side of a brick chimney for the fireplace. As such router signals have always been kind of an issue. I saw these and I decided to try them, I thought long and hard between getting these and getting the Amazon Eero. I am actually a big fan of Amazon products, but chose to go with these instead. I have one node in the location I described above. I have another node on the lower floor on the same end of the house and another node on the upper floor on the opposite end of the house. I was fully prepared to get an additional node or two, but I didn't need them. I do have them all hard wired to in house Ethernet. For years, my kids always complained about wifi. It was always very unreliable, especially on the lower floor on the opposite end of the house from where the router was located. The kids rooms were also on that opposite end of the house on the same floor as the router, but even there the signal wasn't great. Since installing these nodes, I have had no complaints. No matter where anyone is in the house they have a good connection. I did have one node after a prolonged power failure that failed to come up one time. Once it was back up one of my laptops wouldn't connect. I had to read that node to the network. Once I had, then one of my firetv sticks wouldn't connect to the network anymore. When I reset the firetv stick, it ended up getting bricked (I certainly don't blame the router for this). So it was a really weird set of events. I have no idea what happened, but this happened a year and a half of using the network, and after it happened, it has worked fine again ever since. Other than that one incident, I have been extremely satisfied with it. It just worked. I just never have to think about it which is the complete opposite of the three or four routers I had before this system, which used to overheat. The only problem I do have is I have to log into the network so infrequently, I forget how whenever I do actually need to. We are a couple of years in now, two years which involved everyone being here and working remotely and going to school remotely and multiple people videoconferencing while simultaneously streaming video and a lot of devices connected. I am so glad I had this system before all that happened. I also recommended this to a friend of mine shortly after I purchased my system. They had areas in their home with low signal. They are not really technical, but they set it up themselves and have been using it trouble free for a couple of years as well.

Not ready for Primetime
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've waited about 3 weeks to make sure I gave this system every chance to work and it just hasn't. I bought the 2-pack for my 2 story, 2500 sq ft home. The setup was very easy and the app was very user friendly. When the system is online everything works great. The speeds are good enough to max out my Xfinity internet speeds of 150 download on many of my devices. I was able to watch Netflix and Firestick without the buffering. Everything was great... but then... The 2nd Node drops off at least 2-3 times a week. I reset the nodes. I even took them offline and restarted like they were new devices to get them back up to speed. I've had to call in to customer service several times, including again last night, as all my devices went offline and were either extremely slow or not working at all. This has happened several times within a 3 week period. After an hour on the phone and some trouble shooting the problem was resolved.. only to go down again about an hour later. As for the app its very inconsistent, which Linksy tech support acknowledged. It will show devices offline that are online and vis versa. It has an option to prioritize 3 devices so they get maximum speed. The problem is when try to disable that function it may not work. The app will automatically prioritize those devices again, on its own, which causes other devices to slow down. It takes multiple times trying to get the app to cooperate which is extremely frustrating. The customer service team is very patient in trying to help overcome the issues, but there is really only so much they can do. My 30 day return window is about up so I have no choice but to return the product. I really wanted it work but it just didn't.

3 story coverage for the streaming family
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We are cord cutters in the sense that we stream live TV, netflix, hulu, amazon, etc. I also work at home through a VPN. So we need a reliable connection that can max our purchased speeds. We have about 15 devices on the wi-fi at all times. This was a great purchase for our two story home. The router is in the basement. I put one of the satellites on each level and used the ethernet port in the back to hardline our streaming boxes (appletv, roku, and firetv). Everything else is on the wifi. I was able to easily set up device prioritization through the app. I had a small issue setting it up myself, but the customer support was awesome and walked me through each step until it worked flawlessly. I'm also happy to know I'll get 3 years of support versus my old netgear that only would help if I paid premium after the first few months. This is a pricey unit, but I'll pay more to know it is going to work at all times.

||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I replaced my 6 year old dual band wifi modem with the Velop. I am extremely happy with the coverage throughout my home. No dead spots anywhere to be found. The installation and management of the settings is very simple when done through the Linksys App.

Working Great
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Setup was easy (with the Linksys app on my phone). Ran into one snag with the last node and had to do it twice. Since install (3 weeks ago) not a single problem. Rated 4 stars due to cost but performance alone would have earned 5 stars.
