    Works good, no major problem. I could not get my wireless printer hooked up, eventually had to use ethernet cable. Not sure if it was a printer or router problem.

    After specifically asking an employee of this router was strong enough for our devices in our apartment, she assured us that it would work for 8+ devices. After setting it up, it wouldn't send a signal greater than 2Mbps on any of the four we had connected. I'm deeply disappointed in Best Buy for steering us so incredibly wrong. Will be returning at the soonest time possible to get my money back. Terrible product with terrible advice.
