    Speeds up Wifi and Streaming

    This replaced an aging 802.11 N wireless router and the improvement is amazing. Both the Wifi speed and reception range has increased. Streaming is great; no more disconnects or long pauses. Being wired to the router of course is the best option, but if you don't have that option or want better wifi for your mobile/internet devices this will more than get the job done!

    Needed a dedicated router to connect to a laptop and chromecast. Previously our connection would sometimes fail. This router was inexpensive and meets the need.

    Our daughter needed a router for her off campus housing cable connection. It works well and she uses it for her smart tv, phone, printer and connected our alarm system to it. I bought it on line for her, filled in the area where I put her name for pick up and she went to the store to pick it up. Fast service. We received an email when it was ready to be picked up.
