    Good product and easy to set up. I was getting 10mbps in my room and this helped me boost it to 30-40mbps. I would have loved to get the full 90 that my ISP provides me but I guess there is too much disturbance between the living room and my room.

    Easy to setup and connect. Very happy with the coverage as I have a split level house with thick walls. I have experienced not weak spots inside any area of the house and it reaches well into my yard as well. Exactly what I was looking for.

    It definitely helped fix our problem we were having with getting booted off our devices. Our old router made it very hard for all our wireless devices to be connected to the wifi at the same time, but this router was easy to setup and satisfies all our needs.

    we were having problems with internet service dropping and Netflix buffering while watching movies. Someone suggested we might need to upgrade the router we have had for several years and the Best Buy associate recommended this one. Easy to install and it really made a difference in Netflix streaming. Also helped with the internet--much more reliable than it was before.

    Fast and easy set-up, with constant connection thru 3-level home, and outside patio. Multiple devices streaming at the same time. Like that you can monitor the system for security. Did my research and chose this one. First wi-fi router for me, and it's great!

    I had challenges with my new modem from Time Warner, and my old router was not compatible. Went to Best Buy and talked to the Geek Squad, and they made a recommendation. Glad I went with it. It was a little more than I wanted to spend, but it is worth it.
