We Are Not Here To Help You
Reviewed on 2021-04-28T15:29:31
Many years ago when I was new to networks and routers I purchased a Linksys brand router - I cannotremember which model it was but had to go deep into the Windows Control Panel to get it to work.
I phoned customer services of which one guy was helpful in taking me through the steps. Unfortunately something didn’t work and I had to phone back again.
This time I was put through to someone else and explained the situation, but got an abrupt answer along the line “We are not here to teach you how to use Windows”. I didn’t phone for Windows support as I needed help in setting the router correctly which would mean tweaking some settings in Windows Control Panel but didn’t get any help.
As a result of this, I have avoided Linksys, and this must have been well over ten years ago. If they aren’t prepared to help customers set their devices up correctly and instead accuse customers of seeking help not covered by the service provided, then what use is this service in situations like this?
I sometimes see models by Linksys which catch my attention and look good, but as soon as I see Linksys I turn away and don’t look for any more information on the product.
This is what abrupt and poor customer service can cause.

Sharp practice and deliberately confusing emails from Linksys customer service
Reviewed on 2021-04-28T06:08:21
Purchased a Linksys router and 2 Velop nodes to create a mesh wifi for a home office.One node never worked properly and Linksys technical support and customer service have given me the run around, doing everything in their power to avoid properly replacing the defective unit. Eventually I returned the defective unit (at my own cost) to them and have suffered the inconvenience of not having a connected home office They refused to send a replacement without having the defective unit returned to them). They then sent me an incorrect replacement (different type of Velop node) and are now sending me dishonest emails trying to confuse the issue. This is straight up sharp practice. Clearly this is a company with no integrity or moral compass. I don't know if other mesh wifi providers are better, but I do know that they cannot be worse. I would urge anyone reading this review to take their business elsewhere.

Linksys Tri-Band WiFi Router for Home (Max-Stream AC2200 MU-MIMO Fast Wireless Router - Died after Two years!!
Reviewed on 2021-04-06T19:49:20
Though the router worked as expected I am only giving two stars as it died after two years.After years of buying routers and more so only Linksys I finally gave up with the traditional routers and went with eero 6 by Amazon which is similar to Nest Wifi by Google.
For years I have bought the traditional Router, and to be noted all by Linksys regardless of whoever acquired them. Finally after repeated routers dying after two years I threw in the towel.
My main issue with the Linksys is why not give a two year warranty since your product is going to be dead in two years. This would make Linksys make a better product which would lasted three years. My first router by Linksys in the 90s lasted five years with no issues.
I cannot complain on the features as the router did everything as expected.
Lets see how long the eero 6 lasts!! I am hoping at least three years if not longer.

Bad Customer Service, and Product, Linksys Velop AC4600
Reviewed on 2020-07-13T13:25:16
I bought a mesh system consisting of 1 main unit, and 2 nodes. One of the 2 nodes died,and this was verified over the phone by the Linksys Technical Support Department. On the same day, it processed the replacement order after getting my credit card information for a so-called “Advanced Replacement “ meaning they would send me a replacement first, and then upon receipt of the replacement, I would have to return the defective node or they would charge my credit card $100 for the dead node. In the process of ordering a replacement for me, a representative checked, clearly said that they had had the identical node “in-house”, and that I would not have to wait for someone to search for it, and that they would send it right away!
A few days after the replacement request was supposedly “processed”, I got the return label shipping label, with all the terms and conditions...
That was thirteen days ago! I have had to contact them multiple times during the thirteen-day period for not getting a tracking number, and having no updates on the new unit going somewhere!
I called Linksys again, went through the extensive loops of pressing this and that option, waited in the queue, and listened to the same music multiple times; upon getting a live person on the line, I was asked multiple questions, and put on hold again!! The representative “apologized for the inconvenience that the node had been “out of stock” while I was told thirteen days ago just the opposite!! I asked why I was told so, but then the representative only repeated that it had been out of stock without saying why there was such a contradiction! When she was hard pressed, she told me that it had been “out of stock” (again) and they would reprocess the replacement, and I would get it in “two days”! I asked why nobody extended me the least courtesy to let me know it was “out of stock”? She repeated herself (again without telling me the real issues for the redundant and extreme delay of the replacement)!
Ironically, just yesterday, I learned from a technician of my ISP that Linksys is a “No! No!” brand! Cisco was reputable; it bought Linksys, but Linksys is not good at all! Had I known the Customer Service of Linksys could be that bad, I would not have bought the mesh! It is not a mesh for WiFi, but a “mess” of frustration and convoluted bureaucracy! Earlier today, I have read some reviews on Linksys, and learned how bad the its products and its Customer Service are!
I WOULD NEVER BUY THIS BRAND AGAIN!
Updated: 7/20/2020
I did get the replacement node in exactly 2 days as promised. For this reason, I add one more star to the rating for for a total of two stars; at least that representative did keep the promise, and did not give me only lips service (and let her next coworker handle a mad customer)! Thank you for that to the last representative I had to talk to about the hassle of getting a replacement!
Setting up the replacement node to add to the remaining survivors of the set was fairly easy. I did not have to call customer service. Perhaps, the only thing good about the brand is the 3-year warranty on the model I had bought! And if you are willing to go through what I have gone through, and don’t have a second thought about how luckier than I you could be, you can try the brand and its products.
If I ever referred anyone to Linksys, I would do so with reservations.

No updates
Reviewed on 2019-12-11T14:28:32
Hardware seems ok but they provide little to no updates for products even when there are security issues.E.g WRT3200 still hasn't received security updates from years ago. Would not recommend.

Their products Are crap
Reviewed on 2018-08-15T16:11:00
Their products Are crap. I have wasted many hours setting it up. When i had gear from another company,that starts with an N,
I NEVER spend that much time making it work.
I own a WRT3200, RE6400 and Even bought Their extra large antennas. But still poor range and bad connectivity. What a waste of money and time. But great support through....
