Better than I had hoped for!

Almost a week passed between the purchase of this or any analogue from Netgear or Dlink. I saw Dong Ngo's cnet review, made sure I bought this one and am very glad I made the choice. Setup was easy. I didn't go for the manual setup, I let the router do its job and I was up and running in less than 10 minutes with no issues. So I'm honestly not sure how anyone would have trouble setting this up. He literally did everything himself, including updates. All I had to do was give my connection a name and enter my desired password, that was literally the hardest part. I currently have 2 desktops connected to it, 2 other computers using WiFi, 3 smartphones, and my PS4 and Wiiu. Everyone is connected with an extremely fast connection and NO LAG. Absolutely worth your money. Update 2018: Thought about another update. I bought this router in 2015. It's 2018 now, I bought a new house and took it with me. It's still going strong. I now have a 4 bedroom house that is much larger than what I used to live in and I get full coverage without the need for range extenders. My internet speed here is also MUCH faster than before and it handles this with no issues. Great purchase and if she suddenly decides to die with me today I'd happily buy another one. I haven't had any problems with this router for 3 years and it still continues. I would give this place 10 stars if I could.

Pros
  • Finally bought
