  • Smaller feature set than other topend routers
  • I was going to include the results of another test running a mix of wireless client types plus wired routing, with a target of 24 hours. So far, however, the test has not been able to run more than five minutes or so without a client disconnect. But I thi...

  • All in all, the Linksys WRT1900AC is a very capable router. In all honesty, I haven’t used many other modern WiFi routers, so it’s hard to say whether the 1900AC is worth buying or not. If you’re only after high-speed wireless, then both Netge...

  • Smaller feature set than other top-end routers
  • The WRT1900AC ranks #3 out of five tested AC1900 routers with a tie for first between the NETGEAR R7000 and ASUS RT-AC68U. The ranker performance summary below shows the WRT1900AC's main weaknesses are in the 2.4 GHz band, with some #4 ranks in 5 G...

  • Linksys’ new WRT1900AC router may have been a bit late to the wireless 820.11ac game but the additional time and effort put into its development show through. It boasts a straightforward firmware implementation, excellent overall performance and convenien...

  • Abstract:  The look and feel of the WRT1900AC is a departure from what Linksys has tried to do the last few years — make routers actually look nicer and less like utility gizmos. This router won't win any awards for being pretty, but it will undoubtedly make network...

  • Abstract:  As the official successor to Linksys's iconic WRT54G, this router has a lot to live up to. The WRT54G was released way back in 2002, but it became famous in networking circles for being one of the most hackable routers ever; it basically gave birth to the...
