I bought this router and it started causing problems after three months, Linksys customer service kept me on the phone for hours and refused to fix it.

Had been using 3200ACM and upgraded to this MR9600 to seek a better performance and range, but it is not as expected. With 3200ACM, I got 768 Mbps Max, sometime it dropped down to 144 Mbps, but most of the time the speed in range of 354 – 576 Mbps. After upgrading to MR 9600, the speed from Internet to this MR9600 is fine, but the speed from MR9600 to any Desktop or Laptop in my home network is worse. Max speed I get is 174 Mbps, but most of the time 144 Mbps, which is not expecting. The set up is easy and simple as 3200ACM, and it is a little better in range. You should use a different name for each band, or some device in your network may not be able to connect to this MR9600. You will not be able to widen the bandwidth to 80 or 160 as you will with 3200ACM. However, my intention on the upgrade is to have better in speed, but it gives me in opposite direction. The speed dropped all the way down to 144Mbps. It hasn’t even once to go above 174Mbps. I would not upgrade to this MR9600 if I would known.
