Abstract: The Linksys Smart Wi-Fi Router AC 1900 (WRT1900AC)($75.11 at Amazon) is without question the most ambitious consumer wireless router networking hardware available. The unit is a big, beefy router, with a big, beefy price to match. You get a lot for your c...
Establishes a new high in router storage sharing performance, Supports non WDS bridging and repeating
Smaller feature set than other topend routers

All in all, the Linksys WRT1900AC is a very capable router. In all honesty, I haven’t used many other modern WiFi routers, so it’s hard to say whether the 1900AC is worth buying or not. If you’re only after high-speed wireless, then both Netge...

Smaller feature set than other top-end routers
The WRT1900AC ranks #3 out of five tested AC1900 routers with a tie for first between the NETGEAR R7000 and ASUS RT-AC68U. The ranker performance summary below shows the WRT1900AC's main weaknesses are in the 2.4 GHz band, with some #4 ranks in 5 G...
Abstract: As the official successor to Linksys's iconic WRT54G, this router has a lot to live up to. The WRT54G was released way back in 2002, but it became famous in networking circles for being one of the most hackable routers ever; it basically gave birth to the...
Simple set up and good ease of use, Solid overall 802.11ac performance, USB hard drive sharing was swift
Initial instability caused us to wait for Linksys to issue a firmware update, Some aspects of the Web interface could use refinement
Consider the Linksys WRT1900AC router if you want to distribute an ADSL2+, cable, or fibre connection to many wireless devices in a busy home, and especially to 5GHz devices capable of 802.11ac transfers. It has a clean and easy to understand interface, t...
You have to consider the Linksys WRT-1900AC as a long-term investment; this is the way to justify its otherwise quite painfully high price tag. Like the venerable WRT-54G, the WRT-1900AC should stand the test of time and should be a rock-solid part of you...
The Linksys WRT1900AC is a great router for home or small office, and it certainly won't disappoint. The only real downsides to the WRT1900AC are that it's a bit pricey, and that it doesn't have a modem built in. Having had the opportunity to use it for ...
