### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Removable antennas and strong signal sealed the deal.
*by U***D on March 1, 2024*

Need something to provide wifi to your metal outbuilding? Pair this with a directional antenna mounted on the outside of the outbuilding (remove one stock antenna and connect it to the external directional antenna) and point the external one at your home router and you will be in business. With line-of-site and little to no obstructions it worked grea at over 700 ft. Range will depend on the external antenna. Pretty easy to set up as an extender. I found that one antenna port seemed to be 2.4G and the other 5G, so you might need to change the ports to where you connect the external antenna. I can't prove it, but I got better results at 2.4G on one port than another.

### ⭐ Failed after 2 weeks of use. Terrible support.
*by D***P on February 26, 2018*

Worked fine for two weeks as a WiFi bridge to two printers connected to its ethernet ports. Then it would no longer connect or allow a connection, multiple factory resets and calls to customer service and the unit is totally bricked. Can't seem to get Linksys to help in any meaningful way other than to ship them the unit and then they will repair/replace at their discretion. Past my return window with Amazon by two days as it sat here for a week before I installed it and then I spent a week trying to get help and didn't notice my return window lapsing. Had to buy a different unit to get up and running and not sure if it's worth my time and cost to ship the unit off to get a refurbished one back that I could keep as a spare or try to sell.Pros: Worked great while it worked.Cons: Bricked itself after two weeks in service. While it works as a bridge, it does not allow for the option of disabling its extender mode, minor issue.
