I replaced an Asus router that started to have problems with keeping connection with my WiFi equipment. My desktop, on Ethernet, immediately doubled its download speed from 300+Mbps to 700+Mbps.

I had two Netgear wifi routers that performed poorly in both download and upload speeds, but thought it was because of my modem. This Linksys actually provides the expected speeds and reliability. Never again Netgear! The setup for this Linksys router was easy with the app. But initially it had trouble finding the device. The app itself is not as intuitive as expected. Tech support was surprisingly very good. The call center was in the Philippines. Settings using desktop via a browser is easier and has more options. One problem with this and all other Linksys routers is there's no way the user can get traffic meter information (data usage statistics).

I've always been a fan of Linksys products, so I decided to give this router a try. Unfortunately, it was a challenge to set up—it took numerous attempts to connect it to my phone and pair it with my Spectrum DSL modem. Frustrated, I let it sit for about 8 months after purchasing because I didn't want to deal with the hassle.Eventually, I decided to try again, and after hours of troubleshooting, I managed to get it working. For the next five months, it performed well. However, yesterday it suddenly dropped all connections. It would reconnect briefly only to drop out again, and eventually, it just stopped working altogether.In all my years of using routers, this is the first one I've had that completely failed like this. Usually, I upgrade my router well before encountering any major issues.

Had a down router and apparently it was more than 7 years old and Linksys no longer provides support for routers that old.Found this. First it is relatively cheap ( compared to others more expensive with many of the same features, so I thought). Good coverage on a basic 2 level Ranch style house.The only problem is during set up. Now I have 2 routers I maintain but they are set up the same. It says quick easy setup. After a hour and 3 router resets I was able to get this working.This router doesn’t have a separate 5 gb account- just the regular 2ish gb ( which I didn’t know).Fortunately , the other house doesn’t use the higher gb speed-> so I just manually setup the router with just the one account and had it up and going in a few minutes after.Overall, if you want a basic home WiFi router- buy this.

The device is pretty good, it has good range and has increased our wifi output significantly from the old router. I now get 600+mbps.The issue is that I have lost so many hours of my life trying to mesh this new router with a few of my other linksys routers. The linksys support desk is super responsive but after my 10th service ticket I lost the will to live.I paid a guy to come and do it and after a few hours he worked it out...So my message is, if you think you can set this up on your own - think again !

We upgraded our home Internet plan to a 2.5 Gig plan from 1 Gig. Too many phones, laptops and TVs all going at once for the 1 Gig plan we were on. I upgraded our Modem and needed to upgrade our Router as well. I tried several Routers but simply was not satisfied with their performance. I decided to give the Linksys Hydra Pro a go. It has worked flawlessly from the get-go. We have a 6,200 sq. ft. house and literally every room gets Wi-Fi without any issues. Even though it's rated for 2,500 sq. ft ... the reach, at least in our environment, is far more than that. I'm not using any extenders or additional modules in the house. Every TV for example (which is on either Apple TV or Amazon Firestick 4K Pro) gets exceptional picture and audio without any buffering or broken audio. We have no cable boxes in the house ... all TVs are on Xfinity Stream.The only thing I can say is that the only firmware update we have gotten since installation was out of the box during the initial installation, I believe, it was done in January or February. I don't think Linksys is big on updates. That said, the main point is that the Router itself works exactly as stated and has worked without any issues whatsoever. From my perspective, and even though it may be a little outdated at this point, it is a great Router and I will keep it on-line for as long as I can.

Aqui las razones por las que no lo recomiendo:1. La frecuencia 6Ghz no funciona (probado con equipos con AX210 y AX411)2. Los canales no pueden configurarse manualmente incluyendo los de la banda 160Mhz3. Pobre interfaz de configuracion, abismal diferencia con la interfaz de los routers WRT4. Forzoso a usar una app de celular para configurarlo por primera vezSiento nostalgia por aquellos viejos tiempos donde Linksys era autoridad en routers caseros, hoy, ni de cerca.

I had a Linksys Velop wifi 5 mesh, running it in bridge mode to provide a large area with wifi coverage. The network was using an Asus router with it's wifi turned off as the only router, with the Velop mesh for all the access points. That worked well, except in bridge mode, the guest network actually wasn't separated from the primary network, so guest users could access devices on the primary network if they knew how to do that. And I got a new phone that supports WiFi 6. So I bought this router and successfully replaced my old router. The configuration went pretty smoothly.I had to do a factory reset on all the Velop nodes, essentially destroying the existing Velop wifi 5 mesh. Then connected the new router to the cable modem, and did the router setup using the Linksys app on my phone, to create the new main node for the new mesh. Then used the Linksys app to add the unconfigured nodes to the new mesh, one at a time. BTW if you are using hardwired backhauls (connecting the Velop nodes to the router using Ethernet cables) you need to not connect the cables when configuring the node - it has to be added to the mesh via wifi. Connect the cable after the node is in place, and then power cycle the node to get it to use the hardwired backhaul.The end result is a fast wifi 6 central router combined with a wifi 5 mesh for reaching out to a large area. The phone seamlessly switches from 6 to 5 when walking around, it does exactly what I had hoped for. Now that I'm not running bridge mode, the guest network is actually secure. The router does support a USB disk drive, which basically just worked when i plugged it in. Very happy.What I would like to see added would be more advanced control of the router. There is a local router control panel, which you get to via a web browser at the router's IP address. This provides some amount of configuration, but not as much as I would like. Asus provides much more in this area.I intend on replacing the Velop 5 nodes with Velop 6 nodes at some point, which will be an easy task. Overall an excellent product with an excellent outcome, and didn't need Linksys tech support to get it done.

Total disappointment. Range is about half of my 4yr old Velop. The 6Ghz band does not work with any of my wifi6E enabled devices with Intel AX210 in either Open or WPA3 mode. When added to my existing Velop mesh, clients cant connect to the internet using both wifi and wired backhaul. The box arrived opened with Best Buy return stickers. It’s going back today.
