Review on Enhanced Performance! Linksys E2500 (N600) Advanced Simultaneous Dual-Band Wireless-N Router by Jason Bellman

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Significant slowdown over Wi-Fi and useless tech support

I've noticed a significant slowdown with this router. I've tried it on both 2.4GHz and 5GHz and both work poorly. Technical support contacted. Initially, it took weeks to set up a troubleshooting session. When it finally happened the technician wasted 2 hours of my time filming in the dark. The final verdict is there is a problem with my router and I need to buy a new one because my warranty has expired. Of course, the new product will not be a Linksys product. Here are some speed test stats for comparison: 1. Internet speed with wired connection direct to the Internet Up: 81.37 Mbps Dn: 74.30 Mbps2. Internet speed via Wi-Fi - 2.4 GHz Up: 18.00 Mbit/s Dn: 24.98 Mbit/s3. Internet speed via Wi-Fi - 5 GHz Up: 34.87 Mbps Dn: 54.70 Mbps

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Not bad, but...
