I have purchased Linksys networking equipment ever since they manufactured their stackable Cable Modem and Wireless B routers. Ever since that time, they have never let me down (except for a few E series routers I will stay away from) But they finally got this wireless router right because of the many options you now have. 1) It is beefed up with plenty of CPU and on-board memory that makes video streaming/gaming with it awesome. 2) It has MiMO (Multiple In/Multiple Out) technology. This means every wireless device is getting the bandwidth it needs without the congestion. And 3)....the most important...it is built with a chipset that allows for upgrading the firmware to any flavor of Linux you want. What does this mean? Here is a clue. Stock Linksys firmware throttles router bandwidth flow to preserve the longevity of its hardware. However, with customized Linux firmware (Google - Linksys Custom Firmware) you get all the performance/tools of a commercial router and maximize the use of CPU and memory functions. For the consumer interested in getting connected to the web in the simplest way possible, Linksys does a very good job with this product. However, for those gaming with this router, I would highly recommend using custom Linux firmware to reduce lag/packet loss in your competitive gaming on XBOX and PS4 consoles. Besides Belkin buying the Linksys name, my only hope is that Belkin will not touch this great router and remove the great chipset it contains. If they do. I will have to go Netgear for customizing my routers to Linux firmware. Good luck.Read full review

Unfortunately the one I bought kept disconnecting the WiFi (specifically devices on the Wireless could access everything on the private LAN, but suddenly stopped being able to route to WAN, very strange) So that affects my overall rating. Even if the device worked well, the extra $$$ you spend on this one vs. the WRT1900 is going to the 160MHz functionality, which you can't take advantage of right now unless your goal is to bridge 2 WRT3200ACM's together. That and it looks like Linksys has been having firmware trouble since the device launched, so I'm not honestly sure if the device I got was defective or if the design is just shoddy. I'm of the WRT series routers because I thought of them as being robust, but it's clearly not.

Setup was easy, has been running 14 days now NO dropped connections. Easy to install dd-wrt firmware for even more control over the router if desired as I found that the factory firmware did not have all the features that I wanted. This router runs stable with either factory or dd-wrt firmware. Replaced a d-link DIR-885L router that inexpicably got bricked when I enabled QOS feature of the firmware and would not let me reflash using the d-link's emergency flash mode.

Great device, holds 3 Apple TV, 4 iPhones, 4 tablets, 4 laptops at the same time. Previous router hanged twice a day and I needed to power cycle it. This one working from installation without any problem. In addition it has 1 Gbps 4 port switch.

This is an excellent router and it provides all of the features I like, plus the app allows me to access and make changes to it from anywhere. I really enjoy all of its features and capabilities. I recommend this router to anyone who needs to upgrade from a basic setup, because this will certainly allow you to expand the usefulness of you home network.
