Older Pre-N routers have a much better performance and range

Excellent router, great performance

Performance was great while it lasted.

Better range and faster performance than the Linksys 320 that I upgraded from

For a $180 device I expected an easier set up, consistent performance and really "knock my socks off" performance

Additionally, I was expecting a better performance than the Wireless G Linksys model

We purchased this router to replace an older Linksys router after being told that the newer technology would improve performance

I had a Linksys Wireless G for years and the performance was outstanding

The performance is awesome and I've only had to reboot it once!

The Netgear WNDR4500 covers my entire house, with consistent performance across the range.

The manufacturer contacted me thru Amazon and suggested settings I could make to improve performance, which I did, and they worked!

Even if I go 4 or 5 rooms away from where the router is located (where the Linksys product lost the signal entirely), I still get 23 Mbps, excellent performance.

Great performance.

Previously had N300 and see a very noticeable difference in quality as well as performance(no buffering) with Xbox-One, ps3, and five children with smart phones/tablets all running at once

I decided to buy this one because I needed better coverage and improved performance, however the main decision factor was the remote access feature

The router is great to surf the net, watch Netflix, kids watch YouTube Videos - great WiFi performance.

Excellent performance and range

that shows in the spectacular performance of this series of wireless routers -

The wifi coverage is excellent and performance is superb

Based on the dismal performance of past Cisco/Linksys routers recently, the EA4500 is a definite improvement.

I expected better range and better performance with the Linksys ae4500.

Excellent performance with an easy interface.

After watching a show (Tech TV), I got an EA4500 for my home network to replace one that came with cable provider, with multiple devices connected to it - provides great WiFi performance

Frustrated with this poor range and performance, I switched to the Netgear WNDR4500, and

I returned this router due it's absolute HORRIBLE 5GHz wireless performance.

Superior performance and great local and online administering.

While I get good wireless performance in most places, I am having compatibility issues with my Nexus 4.

This way, I'm not saturating the channel with all of my devices and it improves the overall performance of my wireless connection

Over the year I've had it, it's had progressively worse performance and finally stopped working completely just after the 1 year warranty expired.

The EA4500 is no exception - good performance, as to be expected from a Cisco/Linksys product, but it doesn't support Mountain Lion - and so far, no word on if or when it will be supported

I am expecting this model can provide stronger signal, better performance, and longer range for me

So when I returned it and bought the EA4500 instead, I expected a much better range and performance.

Excellent performance; speedy, quiet, and overall great piece of equipment.

Performance on 5GHz is terrific in the crowded WiFi environment of an apartment building while simultaneous use of 2.4GHz is only acceptable to good with all the interference

Bottom line: performance/range very marginal.

ProsStable, good wireless performance, easy configuration, many features

For a $180 device I expected an easier set up, consistent performance and really "knock my socks off" performance

I'm happy with it and the performance is great...

A model upgrade will not just improve your router but also the total performance and effectiveness of your network.2

Very satisfied with the excellent performance of this dual band wireless router

The performance of this router blows away the Cisco EA4500.

And as I moved more than one room away, the performance dropped dramatically as well.

Range on 5Ghz N did not improve as much as I had hoped, but performance on 2.4 Ghz band is better.

Looks good, easy to operate and amazing performance.

The performance of this router is excellent.

Love the performance, the design, and the setup.

On my laptop, the performance on 2.4 was SLOWER than with the

Very strong performance, just a real pain in the butt to work with for some devices.

As we were looking to upgrade our wireless equipment, we considered several manufacturers, but had previously had such great experience with Cisco/linksys that we finally settled on this top-end product, hoping to get not only great performance now, but excellent longevity from the unit, as wireless & network demands & parameters change

Much better coverage than my Cisco E-4200 I replaced.

Customer service is HORRIBLE, yes, H O R

Customer service is HORRIBLE, yes, H O R

If you do not have an internet connection your menu items are severely limited as you are not accessing your router through Ciscos servers.3- PLEASE

Works as it should and was a snap to set up.

cuz the damn thing just won't reset/restart properly and get back to work as it's supposed to!I'd always had Cisco network devices, but it's all been downhill since I purchased the EA4500

My objectives are simple... to be able to access email anywhere in the house as well as on the outside decks/swimming pool area... but forget that

Upgraded as we had many wireless devices plus a streaming ROKU player.

Their suggestions were inane and lead me to believe that a key selling point may not actually work as

I'm not a computer guru by any means but this router works as well as

Cisco's CloudConnect online configuration utility is pretty slick; and I like the ability to access the router and manipulate settings remotely via the available iPhone app as well as from any computer anywhere via the Web.

After spending an hour trying to get it to work as it should, the technicians from my ISP explained that it worked fine if I plugged my computer directly into the router, otherwise the WiFi worked worse than the ancient router it was supposed to replace.

This is kind of embarrassing as I'm a life-long computer guy

I purchased it new on Amazon, but Apple told me it was actually 4 - 6 years old, NOT an N class & NOT secure

But it's a very easy a procedure,(c

Much better coverage than my Cisco E-4200 I replaced.
