    • Steady stable speeds through all devices
    • However, I decided to keep the router as it upgraded our bandwidth, was under warranty, and provides faster speeds for next gen devices
    • The first was that I could not - for some reason - get good wireless speeds out of this unit
    • Incredible speed, no more buffering while streaming
    • as for now i am sticking with the old dlink and its incredibly fast speeds and may use this for an ap since the dlink doesn't have 5
    • My speed improves, and no more drop signals.
    • I feel like they are reaching higher speeds then before it is a dual band
    • and the speed was great
    • Super speed and amazing features.
    • Easy set up, fast speed.
    • At first I was impress, great speed (not much improvement from my old dlink dir-890l) very good
    • This router might be overkill for my situation with only up to 10-12 connected devices (3 computers, 3 streaming devices, 3 smartphones, printer, echo dot, nintendo switch, sometimes a guest user), but I am happy to now have a solid and high speed connection for all connected devices.
    • If you enable QoS for a device, it will limit the full download/upload speeds, even if the QoS device is not online nor communicating.
    • My only other comments are it runs hot, has some nice features I don't use (VPN, Alexa, Guest networks, additional cloud-based controls, time machine) and has really good range and speed, though I do have audio dropouts using YouTube over 2.4
    • , it's promising that can boost my internet speed and extend the wifi

    • But that also was still only 1/2 of the 160mbps that the router should sustain and slower wifi speeds than the 160mbps had been producing when it worked
    • It delivered faster speeds to my laptops and phones than my Eero Pro mesh system
    • Excellent speed
    • However, my Wi-fi devices are enjoying the fast speed I expected — around 400Mbps
    • Speed and performance:as for speed i was expecting to get a faster speed with this router (which is around 80 MB) as i saw with some videos on youtube
    • Wonderful speeds on other side of house.
    • I bough it mostly to improve the range of wifi signal and I also improved the speed and reliability
    • I like the speed and connectivity of multiple devices and the ease of installation..4 month Update

    • Excellent coverage with incredible speeds throughout my 3 story home and yard

    • Between all of my devices, my 2017 MacBook Pro was able to hit like 375 MB on a speed test, but since I consistently have good speeds of over 200 MB, I could care less
    • So I started with the supplied ethernet cable to connect the router to the modem and my internet connection became stable but my hardwired desktop computer lost its original speed — barely getting half of what it used to
    • Blazing fast speeds, amazing range, and great stability, so far, on this first day testing it
    • This promises higher speed more connections better range

    • The wifi 6 speed is a noticeable improvement over ac wifi.
    • Ax signal is definitely better with faster transfer speeds
    • The router had not been able to reach any download speed greater than 500Mb, leading me to think that my company was wasting money paying for bandwidth that we could not use due to the router.[UPDATE
    • This unit upgraded an old Linksys, so speeds were great, setup was easy, interface through the app was polished
    • Really good Wi-Fi reception around the house, and speeds are only limited by what we can get from the ISP.
    • Also it's technically a slower max speed but is able to pull 117Mbs out of my 100Mbs service where the TP-Link would occasionally get to mid-90s.
