    It does well when two people are on at the same time. The only issue is the lights flash constantly. The antennas make it look like an alien. Glad we got it.

    Its a little pricey but the higher speeds may help to "future proof" it a bit. Signal strength is good throughout a 4400 sq foot house even with unit in the basement and primary use upstairs! Easy to setup and use. The Genie software is nothing special but gets the job done with a minimum of fuss. This replaced a draft N Dlink unit that couldn't handle TWC high speed internet. Its been up and running for 2 months. Time will tell but so far I'm pleased.

    Great router with easy set up. Very confident about this, yet it did have some difficulties with glitching during the streaming aspects of the device.

    This router has been an excellent upgrade over my previous router and particularly as it relates to overall coverage area. This router provides a strong signal to every room in my 4500 square foot house. Also the dual band allows both my legacy devices as well as newer devices including various mobile devices and many smart home devices (i.e. Phillips Hue lights, Samsung smart things) to connect and stay connected with no issues!

    I was having major issues with devices being able to stay connected. The issues started after buying an Amazon Fire Stick (P.o.S. if you ask me). It would cause all other wireless devices to lose WiFi Connectivity, and the WiFi would not appear for the devices until the router was rebooted. This happened with three different routers. After upgrading to this one (slightly expensive, but worth it), all the issues have gone away.
