No hassle & easy setup

Perfect - it was just what I needed. Before ordering it, I was a little worried it wouldn't work with the setup I have (instead of two computers I need it for chemistry lab equipment that shares one printer). But, as long as I remember to use the switch bet fire printing, it works just fine just plugging everything in - without having to install any sort of software.

This is an easy set up (& that's important to me since I'm not technologically savvy)... Very easy to use and navigate, I love it

New Comcast (Xfinity) internet customer, hooked this up to my cable wire, computer and power, turned it on and booted computer, open my browser and in less then 5 minutes it is up and working, didn't even need to call Comcast, The modem & Comcast website did everything for setup on their own, easiest setup I have ever done. Will update review after I have used it for a while.

Super easy to set-up and use. I spent approximately 30 minutes reading the instructions and installing the unit. It worked the first time. I recommend reading the instructions before doing anything else. After you have configured the unit you can disconnect it from your USB port. When you want to add a computer to your network, you set-up that computer's TCP/IP configuration of it's Ethernet adapter to be assigned an IP address automatically. The router will assign one to the computer at the computers power-up. You only need one DSL account. You connect your DSL modem/router to the Linksys router. Your DSL modem/router sees the Lynksys as one user, unaware that there are several computers using the one connection. I could not see any significant speed loss having three computers all streaming video/audio at the same time. This thing is fast! If you want to share your DSL connection, I highly recommend this Unit.

For a bit I over-thought the setup of this little guy, and actually pulled it most of the way apart looking for switches to toggle (I'm bad at reading instructions). When I finally did take a detailed look at the instructions, I was able to set it up in less than 5 minutes (all I had to do was push a few buttons on the device, and then one button on the garage door unit and they paired).

I'm very satisfied with the setup, and so far its performance has been excellent.

Quick and easy set up with no hassles. Plugged it in, answered a few questions and it was up and running. Extended wireless network to improve coverage. Simple, clean extension that works great with other apple products. Looks good too.

Did the trick - quick installation - worked within minutes - connects fast and reliably

Easy to setup.  Like most people, I skipped the instruction manual (as many of you reading these reviews probably will as well).  To access the config menu, press ctrl+m when the computer is going through POST.  It's pretty self explanatory from there

Has all the features your likely to need and is easy to setup.

Very easy to set up & had over a dozen devices connected to the network & working w/in a 1/2 hour (didn't do any fancy options, just typical set up).  The gaming was killing our old network (loading a Minecraft update on XBox ground everything else to a halt, so that was the impetus for replacing our 4 year old Linksys set up) & I haven't noticed the least little glitch in anything so far.  I do data analysis for work & my VPN is noticeably more stable & everything much smoother when I work from home.

i got this to set up wifi for my parents in their small 1-floor house in the suburbs. it was SUPER easy to install/set-up, and works great around the whole house!

i'd say only annoying thing is it's not easily evident how to make this wifi network secure (password-protect it).  i'm pretty computer savvy, and it took me several minutes of fiddling around before i figured it out (and even then i wasn't sure, i just played around until i got the results i wanted).

It can't be any simpler. Two cables are included in each box. Amazingly easy to set up. We paired all 4 units easily. It takes one push of the "Pair" button on each unit at each location to get all 4 to work together.

Setup was astoundingly easy thanks to the enclosed instructions. At this point I couldn't be happier.

Setup was a breeze! Having experience with doing this many times for myself, family and friends, I'd have to say set up for this particular router was as easy as it gets. The instructions that come with the device are five steps, and if you follow them, the router pretty much sets itself up. It was ten minutes from the time I took my old router down until my new router was up and running. I wanted to keep my old wifi network name and the guided setup even allowed for that. Being the resident IT guy for my family and friends, I'd feel comfortable shipping this router to my parents and walking them through the set up over the phone.

Once everything is connected you land at the wifi configuration page and it's very smooth looking. In the past, these pages have looked rather intimidating to those who don't know what they're doing, but this one has a much more user friendly look. The basic things that a novice would like to access are all available from that home screen, including guest access, a quick link to a speed test, and network status. For those of us who are interested in delving a bit deeper, there is an extensive array of settings to go digging through. Anything you can imagine wanting to configure on a router appears to be available with this device.

The range seems to be extensive. I live in a 2 story with a basement, where the router resides. While up as high as possible, as far from the router as possible, I'm still between full and 80% signal strength.

It comes with all the required parts, though I did use a better quality Ethernet cable, as the one it came with felt cheap to me. The device itself feels like any other home router, lightweight and plastic feeling, which would make me nervous about the longevity of the device, if I wasn't expecting it to be outdated long before I have any issues with it physically.

All in all, if you're looking for a high quality router with excellent speed and range, that is fantastically easy to set up, this is it!
