I previously purchased a new router for my home computer. However, our house was flooded on August 14, 2016, and the router had to be replaced. Our internet is back up and running, the router has been replaced and everything is good.

I bought this for a friend and set it up at their house as a surprise. Easy set up and it worked fine. They needed a WiFi router with a modern. DOH surprise for me, so I had to return it. Worked well and returned it to Best Buy with no problems.

This router sends sends a strong signal to every place in the house. The price point made me think it was be a mid range router, but it is far from it. My son is a gamer and never has issues.

Good router. Dual band support, 2.4 and 5Ghz.
Has 4 eth ports.
I tried file transfer within the intranet to check advertised speeds. It does not dissappoint there. Getting roughly 400 Mbps across.

I keep replacing routers every couple of years. I make the mistake of buying cheap ones. They eventually get to the point where they have to be unplugged and reset regularly. So far this one has been reliable. I like the fact that it has two separate wifi signals.

This is an awesome router. Allows me to reach my maximum speeds from my CenturyLink fiber optic. Even gave me the ability to bypass the modem with a little tweaking of the settings. Got this on sale as well, recommend fully!!

Bought this when I exchanged a Linksys router that ended up not being compatible with my internet provider. Set this one up in 20 minutes and only had to reboot one time since I bought it. The app is handy, the range is great, and I would recommend this router.

Installed easy. Needed an upgrade for speed and security. This is a good fit for our needs. We are not streaming or gaming. This seems to be a good device, only a month into using it. Happy to this point!

Router instructions easy to follow, though appropriate computer screen failed to appear. No customer service number, only website. Was a bit challenging to install, but has solved some technology issues we were facing. Overall, very satisfied.

I bought this router to replace my eight year old Apple Time Capsule and it has far exceeded my expectations. I plugged in an external hard drive into the USB3 port and I can use that drive to back up my MacBook wirelessly but I found that I can set up my own DNS name to access my personal server. I also feel like my internet connection is better, probably thanks the BeamForming feature.
I did make one amateur mistake when setting this up with my MacBook. I joined both the 5Ghz and the 2.4Ghz frequency of my WiFi network and that seemed to cause problems with my Time Machine with an error that the backup file was already in use. Once I removed my machine from one of the frequencies, the issue resolved itself and I never received the error again.
I highly recommend this router.

I was having a problem with my WiFi reaching my living room. A Best Buy tech advised me to get this and it was easy to set up and solved my problem.
Set up uses the cell phone. Easy.

We cut the cord so we updated our equipment. We paired this with an Arris modem. We stream everything with at least 8 devices always connected. We have hit speeds of 245mbps and consistently over 200!

This item was purchased because I was unable to connect my laptop to the modem. On the suggestion of the sales associate, he felt this would be the best option for the functions needed. It hasn't disappointed us.

I have owned this router for about 2 months now and it has been flawless. The setup went smoothly using the software provided. Since switching to this router my network speed has increased by 30% over my previous ( N series ) router.
