    This router only took about 10 minutes to install and it has worked perfectly since. I've had some bad experiences with routers because they were difficult to configure and maintain. This router is easy.

    Haven't had any problems with this product. Installation was very easy and had step by step guide. Blends in great with decor, I like that it's flat and no one can tell it's a router. It's also has a guest access which is very handy so you don't have to give everyone your primary password. They can have their own and you don't have to worry about them making any changes. This product is great if you will be streaming videos! I have a Roku and am constantly streaming from huluplus, netflix etc with no interuptions for browsing or connection problems. It's an all around great product!

    This is an excellent router for the money! Very easy to set-up and easy to use. I love that there is a Guest access passcode so that people can come in and connect without know our personal info. Also, due to many medical issues I am home streaming TV/Movies on Netflix, SteamPix, OnDemand a lot on my TV using my BluRay or Wii or on my iPad 4 or iPad 5 and this router provides great speed! The only thing I miss on it is that the lights are on the back instead of the front which is important when you're rebooting or having connection issues. Other than that we love it!

    I got the Linksys e2500 to replace my 5 yr old Linksys, it still worked but it seemed I had to re set a lot, so I figured might as well get a new one, and hope for the best. I had it up and running with the computer,kindle.PS3.Wii and tablet is just a few minutes. It was almost too easy to set up. and no more re-setting. I am very happy with my router. and it was a great price too.

    This is a good router. We have Charter and the only thing we had to do to keep the Internet from dropping is change the IP address on the router. That wasn't hard but just had to figure out what to do.

    This wifi router will do the job but it's a little high priced. If you have a working router wait to catch this on sale. If you need one this one is fairly reasonable for the money and performance.

    This router worked out of the box. I used the software that comes with it . After a quick firmware update we were in business. All of our devices (wireless and direct) worked right away. I haven't really had any problems with it other than a need to occassionally reset it with a power off/on. Seems to have beeter performance than our prievious router which was about 8 years old.

    This was my first Linksys purchase; the router performs well and is a great alternative to Netgear products. Set up was straightforward and I've had no issues. Pretty happy with it!

    I saw that another retailer had the same router and best buy matched the price. I had it setup and running in a matter of minutes. I was disappointed that it didnt have a GREAT coverage for a small house. and I mean a small house. The house is older with plaster so that might have something to do with it but still disappointing. Other than that speed and setup is awesome.

    Big improvement over old wireless router

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I got this for my parents for Christmas. The old router they had was requiring frequent resetting due to loss of connectivity and it was very slow when streaming video (ie Netflix). This new router was very easy to set up and streams movies without difficulty . The range is increased such that they can now get a signal almost anywhere in the house and even by the pool in the large backyard. They have had no problems in the week they have had it and love the new router. I recommend this product without reservation.

    I am not a gadget expert but this router seems to work very well. I was very reasonably priced at Best Buy, much more so than other places I looked. I was very simple to hookup and I had my system working in minutes.

    This is probably the easiest setup that I have had in connecting a router. I had another one years back with another manufacturer which I felt was more complicated. I switched to Linksys and have been satisfied.

    I bought two of these to replace my old Linksys wrt56 routers when they died. I like that the setup interface is nearly identical to my old routers so manual setup was just a copy over of my old settings. They have a setup widget if you need that Range is great, I use one inside a metal building 100' long with the router on one end, - great signal.

    This router is great for any medium to large size home. I have this router set up on the third level of my home. Old consruction bricks, mortar, and stone. Spending most of my time in the basement which is underground completely. This router handles 10+ devices with ease. Best router I ever bought.
