Linksys Business LAPN300: Reliable Wireless Wi-Fi Access Point - Single Band 2.4GHz N300 with PoE Capability Review

Edit: 3/18/2017: I've had constant problems with this hotspot for the past year or so. I was able to reduce the notches by switching to a channel that didn't have as much competition from neighbors (which seems to be the reason this product was banned) but as of yesterday the product is dead. A year and two months after that Purchase. The woman came home and asked if the WiFi was working. As usual "let me check the Linksys" as it crashes frequently. I looked at him in the hallway and there was…

This is a very nice AP.! I bought this to help my Linksys AC1200 (EA6300) wireless router which has very poor wireless coverage. This access point allows you to connect via 10/100/1000 Ethernet using PoE or the included power adapter. The range is excellent and setup is actually pretty easy. You can set up and/or manually configure this device to suit your network needs in minutes using the web-based Quick Connect utility. The wi-fi coverage is amazing, we have people in the parking lot…

I really liked this access point at first. The price, the aesthetics and the butt really convinced me. The GUI was awesome too, giving you all the options you could really dream of. The problem is that after three months it just stopped working. I got an error message filling my logs like the other one here. I tried everything I could find online and ended up replacing it with the more expensive enguis product. I need an access point with Poe, but more importantly, a working one. Stay away from

I need more range in about 75 feet. It does the job. Linksys appears to have fixed the bugs reported in previous reviews. It's been working fine for me for two weeks now. I had to go into the menu options and do some tweaking to speed up my connection. My average speed test was 54.3 Mbps with 29.1 Mbps (2.4 GHz) uplink and 77.8 Mbps with 29.8 Mbps (5 GHz) uplink. My ISP has 300Mbps down and 30Mbps up. I was expecting speeds to be around 95Mbps but I got the range I wanted. This model uses a…

As soon as I connected the ethernet switch to one of the 5 output ports and turned it on, it performed a software update and then started working on its own. I had to look it up in the NE list and find its IP address so I could change the admin/admin/password which is VERY IMPORTANT. This is very fast WiFi. Faster than my wireless gateway/router/wifi speed. You should try from a browser - 10.0.0.1 for your gateway/router and 10.0.0.224 for the new WAP. As always, your mileage can be very good…

. Update: 02/12/17. DO NOT buy them. Connections are very unstable. I have 8 Nest cameras, other devices like Smart TVs, iPhones, laptops etc. Just your essential wireless devices. Interference appears to be a serious problem. Even if the access points are on different channels. Other people also have problems with other access points. Just visit the Linksys community. I cannot currently recommend these hotspots and will be returning mine soon. Also, don't forget to call customer service…

When I received this Linksys N600 Access Point it was easy to set up and configure, but after a few hours I was pleased with the improved speeds of the wireless devices in our home. , randomly disconnected and it was very difficult to reestablish an administrative connection via LAN to fix the problem. It went on like this for several days and I've almost resigned myself to sending it back, but I don't give up easily, especially with technical problems. After trying all the usual things to no…
