5 ghz was basically unusable to me in certain key places, like my office and bedroom, which are at opposite ends of the house.

Of course the 2.4 Ghz was dreadfully slow, but only the older devices used that band.

After reading the various forums and what was on the Linksys website, I made a number of changes (separate the 2.4 Ghz and 5 Ghz channels, modify the MTU code, making sure you have the latest firmware), I was able to up my download to 13-15 Meg (saw 20 meg one time).

The 5 ghz quickly loses range, and 2.4 ghz has good range but terrible noise rejection and so speeds suffer a lot.

its no faster than the ''g'' like it says it is.. have been a beliver in the Linksys for a good while now

Linksys was my go to brand because I loved my WRT54G, but ever since cisco took over it just became crap.

No 5G. Slow as heck.

Bought this as a replacement for my WRT54G router that finally died after 10 years of use

We can take advantage of 802.11n and not be limited to the slower 802.11g

I've had a Linksys wireless G router for years that worked great
