    • An Overall Awesome Router - Very Happy
Size: AC5400 Style: 3000 ft, 25+ Devices
Size: This is really large and requires an area of 13” x 11” approximately on my desk. Ease of Setup: It took me about 5 minutes to open the box, unwrap, and I took 5 minutes to read the quick start guide (not required) and did the setup in about 30 minutes, to disconnect all the cords from the old router and connect to the new one and setup was done. I needed to restart Cable Modem once to make sure that the modem start recognizing the new router. Used a Mac to connect wirelessly as described in quick start guide, but the HTTP URL in the guide did not work for me. I had to use the alternate option to use router IP address 192.168.1.1 to setup. Glitch found: the URL may not work, you will need to use 192.168.1.1 to setup Range of the Router: Very good. My 5GHz channel ranges very well to 50’ and get 50% result of what I get when sit next to the router, which is 56mbps download. But the 2.4GHz channel is not so much, 2.4GHz signal fades away earlier. So, at 50’, I did have very poor result from 2.4GHz channel. I tried connecting to both channel from the same spot 50’ away from the wall, inside which the router is placed. I am blown away with the performance of this router - before buying this router I had one Apple Extreme Airport base station with two Airport Express working as range extender, but still I had few blind spots and the wireless network was not performing well. Sometimes I had spotty connections, streaming was slowing down, so that Netflix (via Roku 2) was showing me spinning circle etc. After I setup this router and connected my YuppTV dongle, Roku 2 and Roku 3, my laptops on th 5GHz network and everything is working smoothly. UI Easy to setup, easy to manage. But I have been a programmer for long time and used to fiddle things, so not sure how people with lesser experience will feel about this, but from other reviews also this is easy to setup. Router Cascading for keeping the old network: Before I purchased this one, as I mentioned earlier, I had a first generation Apple Extreme Airport Base station router and working with 2 airport express extenders. I have almost 30 devices all over the house, regular laptops, tablets and iPads, other utility devices like Garage door opener, Wink hub with GE lights, thermostats etc. So I knew I would not be able to connect all the devices after replacing my original router. To setup all the devices on the new network was going to take some time, considering we have demanding full time job and kids to take care. So, I connected my old Extreme router’s internet port to the EA9500’s ethernet port and restarted Apple Extreme. Voila - my old networking was working too. This is a nice cascading features, I do not know if this is true for all routers, but worked flawlessly on this one. Note: I had to change setup for Airport Xtreme to do this. In Airport Utility, in the Network section, I had to change Router Mode from “DHCP and NAT” to “Off (Bridge Mode)”. Device Prioritization: This is a nice feature in this - I was running some download on my Mac and at the same time had my Roku running netflix. And I could prioritize Roku from the UI setup. Loved the feature. Did not have Netflix stream suffering after this. Overall it is a very good router. I do not have much experience other than Apple Extreme, and it is costlier than this. But to me it is well worth the extra money. In last 4 days, I did not have anybody in the family yelling “My wifi is not working….”. However I know that something may go wrong, and if it does, I will update the review accordingly. For now, I am awarding this router 5 stars. Note: I did not receive a detailed user guide in book form. There is a CD inside the package, which has the guide, but one PDF book with many the languages of the world, but I could not find out the instructions in English language. I contacted their customer support. They are easy to reach, and customer support is very polite and courteous, but they could not solve the problem. The rep helped me to find out the booklet online, but with the same result - it is one big PDF with instructions in many languages, but could not find English. A quick CTRL-F or COMMAND-F (on Mac) to search English did not do any result. Not that I need user guide badly, but for such a pricey and upscale product, Linksys should provide a detailed user guide for old school people like me. But this is not a show stopper for the router itself. And customer support is happy to help you anytime for this router, and so the absence of user guide does not matter that much for me. Update: It has been almost two weeks, and the router is working flawlessly. I didn't have any problem in last two weeks. Everything remained same as of the first week of use. At this point I am really happy as I invested the money ($400 is a lot of money to me) into this router. ... show more

    • Excellent Performance but poor management software and bugs
Size: AC5400 Style: 3000 ft, 25+ Devices
Having waited WAY TOO LONG to replace our pre-N wireless router I did considerable research to find a router that would give better performance and coverage. Due to coverage area on our pre-N I had also added to two (2) access points over the years. Additionally I have five (5) hard wired GB network switches cascaded off the router. My motto is wireless is the network of last resort – if I can hard wire I do. Even with using hard wire everywhere I can there are still a number of wireless phones, tablets, gaming devices and streaming sticks. The recent release of the Linksys EA9500 with selection as 2016 Best of CES by Network World and overall very good reviews gave me high hopes for the device so I purchased it over other slightly older model tri-band units. THE GOOD I am going to skip over all the stuff about features, size etc – that can be found in the item listing and several of the other reviews. Very easy to setup and get working. As I was replacing an older device I had taken screen shots of all the critical screens (Router IP address, DHCP config, permanent leases, routing rules. wireless config etc). Using the quick start guide I connected to the router and it was a relatively straight forward process to make the needed updates to router address (I don't use the default subnet), DHCP range, permanent leases, routing rules (I host my own personal server) and wireless config to allow all of my devices to connect. After one reboot (for software update) and another for making a default IP range change it was up and running. The router web interface is pretty easy to navigate and well layed out and looks like it is setup for new features and updates (I sure hope so – see THE BAD). My wireless range and speed is night and day better – amazing what current technology can do – :) The hard wired LAN performance to/from the Internet seems to be about the same as with my old router. As I only have 30Mb Xfinity my older 100MB router LAN ports were not being stressed. The network map is a very cool feature and the ability to replace the discovered names and icons with ones that match the device is awesome. I currently have the Guest Network off but like the feature and how it mimics what hotels and coffee shops use with the web page authentication – I may go back and enable at a later date. The rule setup was easy and a major improvement over my older router. THE ODD & ANNOYING The Linksys Smart WiFi account login occasionally doesn’t work – this happens on my hardwired desktop, Android phone and iPad. I get a message about service not available or router not supported. If I try the local admin PW it works fine on the PC and sometimes on the mobile device. I am hoping this is just some sort of bug and will be fixed in a future release. Also for no reason I have been able to determine the web portal on my desktop will just stop working. When you click on option (say connectivity) a box pops up but will never populate. Then if you logout (which sometimes doesn’t work when this issue occurs) it won’t reconnect for some period of time – I am guessing a timeout of some sort. THE BAD Ok here goes: The portal and mobile apps are missing VERY basic router features/functions that have been around for years. NO statistics of any sort related to internet, wireless or LAN ports and I mean NOTHING. There is no information at the router level or wireless device or LAN port level. You cannot tell how much of any bandwidth is being used (wired, wireless or internet) and have no information at the device level for who is using wireless bandwidth, who is using internet bandwidth, what wireless connection strength is, what speed/duplex your wired devices connected at. You can't even tell which wired ports are in use. You have to dig too hard to find even basic internet provider information (i.e. IP V4 and V6 IP addresses) and can’t see DNS info for the provider. These aren’t new advanced features and in fact are at least partially available in lower end dual-band Linksys routers – VERY disappointing. Logging seems to be very basic and more or less real time. You get no information on rejected incoming traffic – i.e. if someone is trying to hack/penetrate your firewall. The only incoming logs reflect allowed successful connections (i.e. port 80/443 for my personal web server). There is little to no historical and no way to point to a log server or at a minimum email logs on a schedule or when they get full - I had both of these features with my older router. I would also list as bad that there is no direct desktop agent/gadget to monitor usage but since you don’t get ANY usage that’s not really needed “right now” (hopefully that will be fixed soon). While using a portal for configuration, device level statistics, log review etc is fine basic level utilization should be via an agent/gadget. OVERALL All in all I am pretty happy with the router. The performance and ease of setup is very good. My devices all connected right away and my home server was back online after the rule updates. The coverage/performance is outstanding !! I haven’t done any antenna tuning yet which I expect to make my performance/range even better. I did expect more on the web portal/mobile app and have already reached out to Linksys pressing for future SW updates. I would recommend this router for those that just want to plug it in and let it work BUT if you are looking for even slightly more then basic features on the portal/mobile app you may want to wait until the SW matures. UPDATE After using the router more you can locate somewhat more detailed info about the LAN ports (basic connection and speed but no duplex information) also you can get the details related to internet connection. This information is under the Troubleshooting/Status/Report. Not sure why the hid it and it is just a pure text listing. I would have expect a graphic of the rear ports on the router where you could hover or click on each port to get detailed information. UPDATE #2 After several weeks of use and giving Linksys support multiple opportunities to help resolve my issues - I returned this unit and purchased another brand tri-band router. I am self hosting a NAS server accessible via the internet - this worked at setup and then worked stopped for no reason (even after multiple reboots) and then just "Poof" start working. This issue on top of the almost non-existent monitoring/performance information was too much to deal with. I was very disappointed - maybe future firmware updates will help this device. ... show more
