Pros

The smart wifi dashboard is a wonderful piece of software.

Cons

connecting wireless devices was a nightmare. Had to buy hardware just to connect wirelessly (tv,PS3), Guest access wouldn't allow connections, The smart phone and tv would lose connection, and customer service a joke.

I have always been a cisco guy. I had no problems with my first router (E1000),but new devices smart TV, phones, etc. It was to slow so I bought the EA3500. My devices WIFI connected with no problems with the exception of my smart TV and PLAYSTATION 3. I called support with no help. I bought NETGEAR adapters to connect them with no problem, but guest couldn't connect. I called support with no help. later my devices connected wirelessly had trouble connecting. I called support still no help. It really pissed me off when support told my that WIFI was for laptops. I took it back to WALMART and traded in for a NETGEAR router. It installed perfectly wireless devices connected with no problem, and I had no buffering from YOUTUBE. No more Linksys and I didn't have to call support and hear someone reading from a teleprompt.

Awesomely easy installation!!! I purchased a Netgear N600 (wndr3700) because of the high ratings and decent price($99.). Big mistake! I have been a huge cisco fan at work and home with virtually no issues ever but still thought i would try another brand. I spent two days setting and resetting the modem , router, computer, and speaking with comcast tech support to no avail. I returned the Netgear and purchased the Cisco N750 ($30.00 more and well worth it). I plugged it up, loaded the software cd and the router did everything else. Within 10 minutes from the box to the net and super fast. Thanks Cisco, I won't make that mistake again.
