IT WORKS GREAT
Easy setup with my AT&T NVG510 Modem router.
Works well for my needs.
The 5Ghz band covers most of the house a 1 story 4 bedroom approximate 2100sqft.
The Router is setup in the front of the house and the 5Ghz band is week in the back bedroom.
The 2.4Ghz band covers the whole house very well and strong signal.
For the cost I can not complain.

Not super fast as advertised! - Buyer Beware!!!
The box says 300 - 867 mb/s on it.
The box doesn't say that input is throttled to 100 mb/s.
Doesn't matter if you have 150 mb/s from the ISP. This router does not support faster than 100 mb/s.
The line from the ISP to the router is throttled to 100 mb/s.
Did you get that? It's still just a 10/100 router. Buy a different product.
That's why 1 star. Value would be 5 s...

bureauctatic
product very good, Customer service is too bureaucratic with far too many hurdles to be used. Just for that I will be very reluctant to buy again.

Bargain Router
I bought this for my Special Needs Teenager to limit his Internet access at Night. It seemed to set up easily and work well the first few days but has turned off a few times and needed to be reset. Not sure if this bargain purchase will work out in the long run. You do get what you pay for...

Works fine
It was easy to set up and a good replacement for my old Belkin router which gave up the ghost. I have Spectrum internet and it works fine with their modem.

Functions as expected
Very happy with purchase. Router works great and was easy to set-up. I would recommend this to anyone who is need of a router, and would especially recommend over renting from any cable provider as it is easy to set-up and much cheaper in the long run.

Very Happy with purchase
For the price this router is great and very easy to install. It replaced my 10 year old router. Been using it now for a month and with no technical issues. I recommend this product.

great inexpensive router
works perfectly, and with app there is a lot of sophistication you can take advantage of if you need to.
