Good router with little quirks

This router is the best device in the price range for the offered features without Zeifel. Was built the well-known from Fritz boxes AR7 chipset from Texas Instruments with 16MB DRAM and a small switch with Marvell chip.

For infrequent users, the router is absolutely top with safety. The enthusiast will be, however, a little disappointed, because at a higher load, it may happen that the router Sang and klangslos performs a reset. This also applies to other routers with AR7 chip as the Fritz box. The interaction of low memory, 5 or more users on a larger DSL connection overloaded router mercilessly especially when doing even 1 or 2 users are printing over the network or move files.

The Wi-Fi antenna is uncharacteristically weak for a Linksys router. At approximately 2 walls and 6-7m distance you arrive quickly at the end of the performance. Replacing the antenna can not be unfortunately.

Static DHCP, which already have a previous speaker mentioned also very lacking me.

They were already all the negative points. As such, the router is a very solid device with a "normal" load. The setting options are top notch in the rest (except for the matter of the DHCP). Since the device need not to hide from the Fritz boxes. For small, cheap home networks (2-3 PCs / laptops max.) Can be found at present no better DSL router. For large families and student hostels with more computers but you should have on higher-priced squint.
