It is a decent router for up to 3 floor house since 2.4 ghz range is good. Rarely some wi-fi drops occur but restores in seconds. Got mine at 100 for a light use environment, I would look for a more advanced model for streaming and fast data transfers.

Sleek design; decent performance; good range on 2.4GHZ

Very limited user interface, can't choose encryption method and wavelengths desired; Not compatible to open source firmware (OpenWRT, etc..

Good wifi coverage

Very poor and slow user interface; Has frozen several times and have had to either reboot or reset to factory settings; Settings made don't always work or slow down internet connection; Thought I was buying a top of the range Router but sadly disapointed what a waste of money

Now that 802.11ac is making its way into more phones, tablets and laptops, choosing an AC router such as Linksys' EA6900, is becoming an increasingly tempting option. And if you're going to opt for 802.11ac, you might as well go for broke and choose a top-end model.

Perhaps our expectations were too high, but we expected more from the ASUS RT-AC68U and Linksys EA6900. The test results are good, there's no question about that, but they're note exceptional.

Router has severe connectivity issues. I have used the router for a year and there are constant problems.

Even working with the escalated support team at Linksys, we were unable to get this to work with our network. We wanted to have a separate guest WiFi experience from our internal network wireless connection. This router is supposed to support that but we were never able to get both to work.

This router is horrible. The firmware appears to be written to patronise. It has very few features and those it does have don't seem to work or are ridiculous. After having to mess with settings because my initial install of it simply didn't work I finally, I thought, managed to get it working.

The EA6900 ties for a #2 rank with the ASUS RT-AC68U among the three AC1900 routers ranked . The ranker detail shows the EA6900's main weaknesses are vis-a-vis the other two products are routing throughput and 2.4 GHz range.

Excellent user interface; incredible throughput; very good USB3.0 transfer speeds

Large footprint; can't stand vertically; large power brick; high power use; no bridge mode; 2.4GHz radio fails over time
