If you try to go direct to the IP for configuration, it won't let you. It redirects to the app download (which is a whole other mess). If someone knows a trick, please share. Otherwise I am returning this. My old RTN66U seemed to perform just as well. I'll add, how the hell are you supposed to DL the app if you don't have cell service where you live? Hmmmm? Now it's even worse. Certain clients can't even see the router. There is a web interface but that's not a lot of help if you can't connect to the internet.

I bought the MR9600 (aka AX6000) before Christmas while it was at 1/2 off the list price. Although there has been a steep learning curve at times, for that price I'm happy with it. Full price, though? I couldn't see paying that at this point. It's a first generation WiFi6 router that, imo, still has some kinks left to work out. What I like: - Better range than my old AC1750 router. In our 2 story house of about 3000sf, we have the router downstairs on one corner of the house with the master bedroom in the upstairs on the opposite corner of the house. The old router couldn't even push the 5GHz network up there, and the 2.4GHz network would usually only get about 20-30 Mbps speed. This AX6000, on the other hand, can pull 150 Mbps on 5GHz in the same location scenario. One of my motives in buying the AX6000 was in it's mesh capability, thinking that I might want to put in some nodes eventually to extend coverage, but with the new router it really just isn't necessary. - I wanted to like the 5GHz/2.4GHz integration (i.e. as configured out of the box you only see one network being broadcast). The router automatically evaluates the connection and switches to the better band (5GHz for best speed, if you are closer, but drops to 2.4GHz for better range if you are too far away). However see the negatives list below for the downside of this feature. What I don't like: - The first big issue I had was routine dropping of older devices from the network. The main culprits being a number of home automation wall plugs and a wifi printer. They would all see the network just fine and set up and operate initially, but within a few hours of first setting up they would drop from the network and not re-connect with anything short of a full setup from scratch again. As noted in many other reviews of this unit that issue was solved by separating out the two bands, which negates the integrated band functionality I previously mentioned I wanted to like. If your wifi needs consist only of newer, higher end devices such as phones and computers then this probably won't be necessary. I, at least, had a hard time figuring out how to split the networks since the router setup app doesn't have a button or anything obvious to automate that. I felt a little dumb when I realized all you have to do is enter a different name for one of the two bands in the router setup and hit save. After that all my devices that wouldn't stay connected previously have now been running fine for many weeks on the dedicated 2.4GHz network, including through many cycles of router's power. - Device prioritization and the routers internal speed test app: This one got pretty wonky for me. The router has an internal speed test app that can be accessed from the routers Admin menu. I had understood that this was the "trunk speed", i.e. that it measured the full bandwidth available to the router, which would then be apportioned to the myriad of devices connected to the router. Each device then would have a speed test result of something less than the router's speed test. However after upgrading my internet service to 1Gbps down/35Mbps up, I kept still seeing 11Mbps up speeds, unchanged from my previous plan's speed test result. (Download speeds were within expectations.) I tried everything I could think of, and finally called the ISP. They claimed my service had been upgraded and it must be my equipment's fault. Finally I got a technician visit. On his specialty equipment he showed full speeds from my modem, but wildly different results when connected to the router. One speed test site would report 40Mbps upload while 3 others would report 1Mbps upload, or sometimes 11Mbps. To his credit, after he left our house the tech came back about 15 minutes later. He'd been searching forum reviews on his phone apparently and found someone who mentioned Device Prioritization as a source of a similar issue for this router. Sure enough, one click of the off button for Device Prioritization and my router's speed test app was reporting full plan upload speeds. Weirdly, though, after turning Device Prioritization back on, the router continued to report full speeds. What's more, speed tests run from our cell phones (which are not on the Prioritized list) ALSO now reported full plan upload speeds. - One other hitch to mention: Older 802.11AC wifi cards might not be able to see this router network at all if they don't have up to date drivers. My work laptop was one such case, but once I got my IT dept to finally update the 3 year old wifi driver they now work together just fine. I have had no other cases of any device having a problem connecting to the AX6000.

I'm sure this may be great for someone that doesn't know what they are doing. Just plug in, use the app to setup, and you're working. However, if you know what you are doing.. don't waste your time with this. There's very little you can do. For example I wasn't seeing any of my local devices on the DCHP table until the rep had me reset the device and go into CA (customer Assistance) mode. It's a little link at the bottom right of the setup page. Also to even get to the setup page without the app you have to click on the picture of the app and it will lead you there.. but there's nothing telling you that you can do this. You can't change the username. You cannot change the channels to anything other than what the system determines is best. Just super frustrated with the lack of an Advanced mode. Also, It's really no faster than my 5 year old TP-Link I was using. .. which I think i'm going back to.

Installation was very easy, but I question the wisdom of being able to use only an app. External storage is not yet supported and will require a firmware update that is not yet available. Network device map is a step backward from their older system. Speed and house coverage is only marginally improved versus EA9500/AC5400. Prior to trying MR9600 we tested TP-Link Archer AX11000 and found it offered broader coverage and it was significantly faster. Understandably, Linksys wanted to get in the wifi 6 market, but rushed this product to market prematurely.

Cons: * This product was clearly rushed to market. It's just not ready for what its designers hoped it would be able to do. * The cellphone app is horrendous. It's slow and often stalls. It took me multiple tries before I was finally able to get through the setup. * Even then, I had to enlist the help of technical support, but they were pretty awful as well. * I finally had to research the email addresses of top executives before I could actually get some decent support... and even then it took a few attempts with tech reps. * Linksys/Belkin farms their support out to foreign countries. The language and cultural gaps are substantial, so much so that it makes resolution more difficult than it needs to be. * And probably the worst thing about the whole process was discovering how the company went out of its way to make the PC/Mac Internet dashboard a secret. If you get the page that comes up when you link to the router's default IP, you have to know exactly where to click on the screen to get to the first dashboard (tap the center black vertical line where the image of the two phones are). Then there's an additional secret dashboard that requires the user to click the "CA" initials at the bottom of the screen. Just complete nuttiness. * Additional nodes are far too expensive. * I've had so many connection issues with this that I've been asked by the company to send it back. Seems they've had major issues with this product. Pros: * Fast speed. * Expandability through access points sold separately. The technology is intended to go through walls, which is a big plus for anyone with dead zones. * Easy to understand status light. If you're thinking of purchasing this product, I'd suggest waiting until the company gets a few versions down the road. I hope by then Linksys/Belkin will work the kinks out.
