Review on πŸ“Ά Enhanced Linksys AC1600 Wi-Fi Wireless Dual-Band+ Router - Gigabit & USB Ports, Smart Wi-Fi App for Remote Network Control (EA6400) by Derrick Shaw

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Constant dips/ Doesn't match 300/600Mbps

Went back to update my review - Tried another wifi card as another was bought with my last router, seemed to stop working, so I ran the router for another week to give it a solid shot. Less frequently interrupted but still crashing, some days only 60Mbps on the 5GHz band, crashes on 2 out of 3 devices hard-wired to it, low signal strength (80-160Mbps) on the supposed gigabit -Port. connected directly to my family computer. I just printed my returns slip today, now I have to wait about a week for my refund, but I still have to spend more money to get the router before going back. The only good thing about this router is the user interface, and that's the case with almost every Linksys router. It had enough good reviews that I ignored the bad ones and bought it anyway. It's been running for less than 2 days and dropped my connection a couple of times, doesn't reconnect automatically, my max speed test showed 139Mbps (less than 2.5 on 5GHz). channel) and I also started getting low-bandwidth messages from my smart TVs and Roku devices. Why a company with such a good reputation would let go of this waste of time and money is beyond rational thinking. If it doesn't meet the specifications and other selling points, it's false advertising. I will contact Linksys and Revain after the holiday weekend. STAY AWAY! LOL Just stopped me from posting that too, it's rubbish.

Pros
  • Lots enough
Cons
  • Some difficulties
