Actually returned this for a more powerful model. Can't say anything bad about it other than I just found a better model for same money at Costco.

Overall the positives out way the negatives. It is possible that the building i live in has caused the speed decrease that I have experienced. In addition I have noticed some issues where my phone has network service but the speed is nearly snail pace. I usually have four devices and sometimes 5 connected at one time. Including a Samsung TV for netflix/pandora, iPhone, Macbook pro, work pc, and Galaxy S4. All were connected with minimal difficulties.
