  • Great 802.11ac speeds, Fast storage interface, MU-MIMO future support
  • No MU-MIMO clients (yet), 2.4GHz bettered by cheaper competitors, Massively expensive
  • If you have a bunch of high-speed 802.11ac Wi-Fi devices on your network, and you do a lot of file transfers and high bit-rate Netflix and networked video streaming, then a MU-MIMO router like the Linksys EA8500 makes sense and makes for a genuine improve...

  • Latest Wi-Fi MU-MIMO technology, Assortment of ports and software, Can operate as wireless bridge or extender
  • Very expensive, Unimpressive performance, needs more adjustments
  • The first of an expected onslaught of MU-MIMO routers, the Linksys EA8500 has the hardware and software to fill a house with Wi-Fi and Web access, but the device doesn't live up to its performance potential...

  • Easy to configure, Fast network performance. very fast, Great wireless network range
  • Price – at $429, it's not cheap, Size – it's a big lump of plastic, and hard to hide away, Power user features are missing, or don't work too well
  • The Linksys EA8500 is a powerful router, and there's no question. At a recommended retail price of $429, it would want to offer something compelling, in a market where most routers are half that price, or less.That offering is wicked fast network performa...

  • Linksys EA8500 Max-Stream AC2600 MU-MIMO er den første ruteren som bruker Qualcomms MU/EFX, en teknologi som skal gi bedre ytelse i Wi-Fi-nettverk hvor det er mange enheter på nett samtidig. Vår test viser at dette stemmer. Den raske ruteren viste seg å...

  • Phenomenal performance with a USB SSD, MU-MIMO support right out of the box (for what that's worth)
  • Very few MU-MIMO client devices on the market, Not as fast as some (more expensive) AC3200 routers
  • It's too early in the MU-MIMO life cycle to buy a MU-MIMO router, but the EA8500 makes a fabulous host for a NAS drive...

  • The Linksys EA8500 delivers excellent 5GHz Wi-Fi performance, especially in a network of mixed clients. Its network storage speed surpasses even some high-end NAS servers
  • The router is pricey and its Wi-Fi performance on the 2.4GHz band is below average. The storage feature doesn't support Time Machine backup
  • Homes with lots of devices will benefit from the Linksys EA8500's speedy Wi-Fi and storage performance, but those with modest needs should look for something cheaper....
