Customer Ratings & Reviews

Needed this to allow my cameras, customer wifi, and new prep system to operate, flows seamlessly

Works great and extended the signal of our wireless over our U-verse Wi-Fi router.

Solid performer, love the web based interface and security function.

This worked much better than the netgear nh. Not 5 stars because I still only get half the Wi-Fi internet I am paying for.

I was having problems playing games online on my xbox one with my old router.This router took care of that with flying colors!

We have several devices on our network. This router does a great job!

Has worked flawless from installation. This is coming from someone with 20+ yrs of experience in IT.

The sales clerk recommended this as best for value and the installer also stated it as a top choice

Excellent Router. Switch out a NETGEAR Nighthawk X6 R8000, also a excellent router, that I will use elsewhere.

First time I purchase Linksys, usually buy Netgear. Bought Linksys per our internet provider recommendation. Had issues in the beginning with my husband working from home and accessing his VPN without being kicked off often. Had to do research on my own to "fix" the issue. Called and email Linksys for help with no response or call back.

The Linksys WRT AC3200 is extremely easy to set up. It comes with an Ethernet cord and a preset Wi-Fi network so that you can set up the router straight out of the box with any device you have. The paper directions are very limited, but enough to get you connected and once connected the direction on the device are easy to follow. It does come with a CD with PDF directions, but those are very brief as well. The default login screen for the router leads you to believe you must have a Linksys Smart Wi-Fi account, however, there is one line below the login that says “For local access, click here.” The Smart Wi-Fi account does however allow you to access your router from anywhere once you have the account associated with your router. Of the routers I have used, the layout of the dashboard for this one is one of the simplest yet effective ones I have seen. It is customizable so that you can change what you want to see, or not see, at a glance. Such in my case, I do not use the Guest Access, so therefore I do not need to see it. I also like how it summarizes the online devices, showing that I have a certain number of Local devices and how many of each are using which band of the Wi-Fi. If you click on the number you can see a network map, in which you can modify each device, such as name, parental controls, and reserve the DHCP address. From here you can also see the current internet usage of these devices so that you can see who is hogging your bandwidth. While speaking of Parental controls, the controls on here are straight forward and simple. You can block all access, during specific times, or specific sites. However, in order to set sites and times you must use a PC or tablet, the phone app only allows a manual all block or allows you to remove devices from the controls. Also, the specific times are in 30 minute blocks through a block chart. It is simple, just not as specific as setting the time per minute yourself. However, it lets me ensure that my children are not trying to watch videos or something during bedtime hours. As far as speed, I have not had any issues with it. It has been completely comparable to another brand AC3200 router and I don’t have equipment really capable of pushing the device to its limits to find out. However, I have noticed when logged into the device that it responds quicker than other models and that may be due to the faster processor. The Speed Test under Smart Wi-Fi Tools seems to be inconsistent with its results. It uses a popular speed test website, however, it randomly selects a server that is not nearby and tends to show numbers about half that of the test ran from my computer. Along the subject of speed, this router has a prioritization mode that I first tested while configuring through the phone app. There it allows you to add and remove devices to the priority list, however, it reduced my speed to 21Mbps. At first I figured this is a horrible priority, as nothing else was running at the time. However, come to find out, there are additional setting that can only be viewed when configuring from a PC or web browser. In the settings of Media Prioritization it allows you to set the Downstream Bandwidth and this is essentially what you are giving the priority device to use while everything else just uses whatever it left over. The Linksys WRT AC3200 router has a USB 3.0 and an eSATA connection that can also be used as a USB 2.0 port. I haven’t used this feature as I have network storage, however, the settings in the router allow you to limit folder access, provide an FTP server or act as a media server. With a simple external hard drive you can easily add network attached storage. Out of the box this router has loads of features to include advanced features for some of the most unique networks. From configuring ports and vlans to functioning as an OpenVPN Server. However, the thing about the WRT series is having open source choices which allow tons more advanced features. Certainly a great router for someone that wants to simply get a home network up, maybe run a small business or just want to have extra control with open source capability.

Haven’t had any issues with this Linksys Router. It is what we needed works great.

The main reason I bought this router is to use it with a VPN. It is also powerful enough to stream 4K movies.

My wireless range is greatly improved. Verizon's modem couldn't even reach my bedroom but this router reaches every room.

Good Router for High Speed internet use. Good wifi connection.

No issues anymore with losing internet connections.

10/10 incredible. Relabel routed had another one thought it was a great upgrade.

Makes it easier to manage what's connected to my wifi and have had less internet issues.

parental controls and other options are great. With fiber optic internet all devices have great speed.

I live in a two story home and was having signal issues with my previous router. This covers much better.
