About Linksys Max-Stream WiFi 5 Router
Overall Feedback:
70% positive
83% found it easy to set up
I found it remarkably easy to set up the Linksys MR9600 Mesh WiFi 6 Router (AX6000) in just about 10 minutes using the Linksys App. The app guided me through the process, allowing me to apply my preferred settings for a smooth transition.
I found the Linksys Belkin RX7500 easy to set up, despite it not being from the same manufacturer.
84% praised the strong range
When using it for cameras mainly, the router has great coverage.
The signal coverage of this router is strong throughout our tri-level home, including outdoor areas, rendering the older nodes unnecessary.
66% liked the security features
I find the Device Prioritization feature indispensable while working from a home office via VPN. By adding my devices to the High Priority list, I ensure they have priority access to their internet connection.
74% appreciated the data transfer speeds
I have been using the router for 60 days without any issues. The coverage is impressive and it is one of the most reliable routers I have ever used. I have also noticed a 25% increase in WiFi download speeds using older devices.
I am getting a speed of over 500mbps on all my devices downstairs and around 350mbps upstairs with the new router. I compared it with my old router which was giving me only 96mbps at the most and used to give me 200mbps when it was new. I was dreading to change the router but if I had known it was this easy, I would have done it months ago.
