Reviews around performance (4.46 of 5)

  • The performance and management of this router was fine.
  • I can’t believe the improved performance this router has provided
  • but it was super easy and the software will even give you prompts for when settings are going to lower your connection speeds and potentially hinder performance

  • and I didn't want to take a chance with buying a cheaper model with low reviews.
  • This was not the router that I was offered at Best Buy at first; it was the cheapest brand and the sales guy wanted to sell me the more expensive model

  • Decided to go with a slightly more expensive model and it’s night and day
  • Replaced an older (cheaper) model I had bought first that I had to return because of horrible range.
