- Reviewed in the United States on September 6, 2023Style: 2022 Release - MR20ECVerified PurchaseWhile I am pleased with the performance of this device, the setup could have been easier.
The phone app is not easy to use and kept hanging up on me. Once I finely got the router setup,
The web based system functioned well. One thing, the password kept changing on me. I don't know why.
Overall I like this unit, just think setup could use some tweaking.
- Reviewed in the United States on July 8, 2023Style: 2022 Release - MR20ECVerified PurchaseMy old router would cease working once 200mbps would come into the house. My ISP provides super fast, reliable internet. I pay for 500+ mbps. I purchased this Linksys router and it has solved the speed problem. Setup was easy. It took about 45 minutes from unboxing to enjoying high speed internet. Setup was easy. The phone app did all the work. The device os not bulky. It is small and sleek. It has it's place on the top shelf of my shelving. The signal travels all through the two-bedroom house, the back yard, and almost all the way to the carport, which is pretty far away. Newer routers are too expensive for me, but this one was the right price. Excellent value.
- Reviewed in the United States on June 9, 2024It was a little tricky to set up initially. I was replacing an older Linksys and tried to use the automatic settings to clone my old settings. That didn't really work, but setting up as a new device worked easily. The connection has been really stable and speeds seem great. Would definitely purchase again.
- Reviewed in the United States on December 7, 2023Style: 2022 Release - MR20ECVerified PurchaseI always liked linksys for their quality. This router looks very nice and the sigmal is good, it covers 2 floors in my house. On a down side, I do get my wifi disconnect dropping every few days on some devices and refusing to reconnect until I restart the router. Another issue is the user interface in the web app that feels underdeveloped. The older versions of the web app didn't look flashy but were much more functional. Also the list of connected devices doesn't update in real time and only shows 1-2 devices as online while there should be at least 10.
- Reviewed in the United States on March 9, 2024Style: 2022 Release - MR20ECVerified PurchaseSignal is not great but better. Setup took a little bit longer than expected because it stated that it used my old setup but it didn’t work so I had to delete and reset router. Had to do it as through it was new setup. I’m glad that I got it through lightning deal or I won’t have paid full price. First time I had the much trouble setting up a router as there are 2 other routers in my house because we all work from home ad direct connection seems to be better for us then WiFi. Been thinking of switching to eero or orbi since I have been having so much issues with linksys and I’ve used them for many years. This last router that I had to replace only lasted 3 years.
Update: I lowered this to 1 star because only 5 months old and now it not working well. I have to reboot it every 2 or 3 days.
- Reviewed in the United States on July 5, 2023Style: 2022 Release - MR20ECVerified PurchaseI’ve had Linksys routers for over 4 years. I just got this for an upgrade from my last. Set up was a breeze. Just need to download the Linksys app (I already had it from last router) and go from there. Took about 10 minutes if that. Great connection, easy set up and works wonderfully. This is a mesh version which can connect with other Linksys routers in the home to increase efficiency or you can use it as your main/only router. Would definitely recommend for the price!
- Reviewed in the United States on February 5, 2025A great router. I feared the appointment date for my new Fiber Cable service would be missed, beyond the return date-and it was; but, this Linksys Router worked exactly as advertised three months past the return date. A great product!
Thanks-Amazon & Linksys,
Scotty
- Reviewed in the United States on March 31, 2025Style: 2022 Release - MR20ECVerified PurchaseThis router lasted six months before the board gave out and stopped communicating with my modem. Previously, I had the same issue with a different lower-end Linksys model and thought an upgrade would fix it - sadly it did not. I’d suggest looking elsewhere for your router needs.
