Easy install & working well so far
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I haven't had this product long enough to give a full review on performance, but it installed fairly easily for this tech challenged buyer. I had trouble with a previous brand dropping service. It happened once with this router, but not sure if it was the router's problem. I'm confused by the two links provided and don't understand how they work together as they both say connected.

||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Finally was able to grab it with stand online price from best buy as they gave a deal. It is always good to purchased from them as I had better chance of return it if I'm not satisfied. But this worked well for me. Cheapest Dual Brand router solution in Bestbuy.

intermittant service
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great price, easy to set up, had it up & running in minutes. BUT after a couple hours, it stopped connecting. I did a hard wire connect from modem to computer, and that was fine. I went to the website and looked for firmware updates, and nothing was available. The page links were unresponsive. Went to CNET looking for it, and same thing happened. Changed browsers, no luck. So i had to return it.

Good device, settings could be improved
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Setup/customization can be less than perfect if you need advanced settings, but it gets the job done. I can’t say where other people have had performance issues, as mine was able to give me the full 400mbps my provider dishes out to my home.

Low Price Entry into the AC router market
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I no longer need the cable modem from my cable provider because I added this router to a low cost modem. It will pay for itself in about a year and although there may be better options out there, they are more costly.

Great budget router
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great router in budget. Works seamlessly with Cox. Provides the full speed of my connection on 5Ghz frequency. The 2.4Ghz band isn’t that great though.

Works as advertised
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My orginal wifi was too slow and the 5Ghz did the trick for me. You need a newer computer that has dual band. I have 50Mbs on my provider and the internet speed test for the 5 Ghz about 40 ft away gave me about 44-46Mbs. Almost as fast at a LAN cable.
I would recommend this to a friend Works fine
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So far, so good. Setup was easy and except for an initial re-boot I've had no problems. Documentation is almost non-existent; I still am not sure what one of the icons on the front means.

Great for the price
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Router from 10 years ago couldnt handle all the wifi anymore so i did a little research and found this one. I assumed since it was cheap it might not be the greatest but even with 6 devices hooked up it's very quick. Definitely recommend
