Linksys AC1600 Dual Band Smart Wi-Fi Router

SMOOTH VIDEO STREAMING AND SHARING WITH FAST CONNECTION SPEEDS

The AC1600 features dual wireless bands (2.4 GHz and 5 GHz) with data speeds up to N300 Mbps + AC1300 Mbps*, great for media-intense applications such as video streaming and online gaming.

Four Gigabit Ethernet ports make it easy to share data quickly across your network, and to external devices - at speeds 10x faster than Fast Ethernet. Plus, you can use the high-performance USB 3.0 port** to attach a storage device and quickly transfer large files or share devices across your Wi-Fi network.

BEAMFORMING TECHNOLOGY HELPS ELIMINATE DEAD SPOTS

Beamforming focuses the Wi-Fi signal directly to your smartphones, tablets, and laptops instead of sending out a general transmission. The result is a more efficient network with a wider range.

When your device doesn't have to work as hard to receive data, it means not only greater efficiency for you, but also a longer battery life for your connected devices.

Reviews
Rated 2 out of 5 by from High Expectations I figured it was time to upgrade the router due to the additional devices added and some complaining from users. I consider us typical surfers, not serious gamers. The previous router was a E2500 that I have no issues with. I had high expectations for the AC1600 and expected to see obvious improvement. Not so. I am considering returning this and going with something better ( more $$$ ). I am not a IT person nor much with computers and networking. I was unable to locate a simple program that could check the performance of my router / wifi and to determin what maybe causing intermittent apparent slow downs. Connecting direct to the router is obviously much faster, so I'm not convinced it is the modem or cable signal.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Pretty bad if connecting to non-computer devices I previously had a linksys E3000 that need to be replaced. I have an Ackerman security system and a sleep number bed connected to this router that worked well. After installing the EA6400 I've been having issues with the wifi strength. Keep in mind the router/security system console/bed are in the exact same place as when I had the E3000. When I contacted support it was suggested that the vendors wifi technology might not be up to date. What ever happened to backwards compatibility? Support suggested I contact the vendors although my E3000 wifi strength was previously working fine. Also suggested buying an amplifier...really? Just dropped $140 and you want me to spend even more.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Poor memory handling After a lot of research, come to find out that this router (at least mine) has poor memory management. After 24 to 36 hours this router slows down to a crawl (from 75mbps to 10mbps) then you have to reboot the router in order for it to go back up. Thought I would get a little better range and speed with this router from my old one but it appears that I did not consider reliability.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Does the Job! I bought this almost a year ago because I needed something more powerful to support all of my internet needs after I added a cloud based surveillance camera. I had a little bit of trouble installing it because the Linksys site didn't want to recognize its own password. (I was also having trouble with the computer I was using so I had to get my newer laptop involved.) But I called and immediately got wonderful help on the phone. I have had absolutely no problems since then.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Good Buy I bought this router from the refurbished pool of routers offered by Linksys. It was easy to set up, works great and was indistinguishable from a new router. Also, it was less than half the price of a new router. This router also had the most current level of firmware so no maintenance had to be downloaded and applied. Before you buy, look at the refurbished section.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Easy to set up...Great Features...Great range... I have had this EA6400 for about 6 months. It was very easy to set up whether DSL or Cable. You can make changes from your Smartphone, tablet ect. The range of WIFI signal is excellent inside or out. The cost is great with all the features it comes with. This Router can do much more than what's available now...I would highly recommend this Router...

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Good router overall, misleading parental controls Its a good router, easy to set up and manage..... there is a issue with this or Belkins routers in that the web site restrictions for parental controls only work on IE... Chrome, Firefox and Safari goes right to you tube or any other site even with those web sites restricted in the router settings. Did due indigence... worked through their help desk teams on different ways and checks to get this working... eventually they gave up as well....Don't buy this if your thinking about family w/kids for web site restrictions....

*The standard transmission rates—300 Mbps or 1300 Mbps (for 5 GHz), 300 Mbps (for 2.4 GHz), 54 Mbps, and 11 Mbps—are the physical data rates. Actual data throughput will be lower and may depend on the mix of wireless products used.
**Up to 4.3x faster physical data rate when compared to 802.11n Wi-Fi routers using two antennas to transmit and receive data. Actual speeds will vary depending on a number of factors. In order to achieve the best performance, router must be used with a compatible AC1300 wireless device.
