Does take some time to set up but a quick call to Xfinity and navigation made it simple. Disconnected my old router and set this one up with it working in about 30 minutes.
Background:
I purchased a new CG7500 modem router from Amazon (with my own money-- this is not a paid review) about 2 months ago (June 2017) to replace a Comcast Xfinity-provided unit that worked without any issue-- that router had good signal range, good speed, and good reliability--rarely needed any sort of reset. I just wanted to stop paying the Comcast rental fee. For the CG7500, I am operating with the latest Firmware (version .016). I have both wired and wireless devices connected to the Modem/Router.
Setup: Setup of the CG7500 and connection to my Comcast Xfinity ISP was easy-- I did not need to contact Linksys for help in setup. That was really nice.
Problems:
1) The signal range was far worse than my Xfinity modem/router. I have a large house with the modem centrally located in the middle of the ground floor, but the signal does not reach the edges of the house upstairs and downstairs (neither the 5Ghz or the 2.4Ghz). My previous modem/router installed in the exact same place had no trouble providing that signal range. With the help of the Linksys technical help, we tried multiple frequencies to improve the signal, but none really improved the situation.
2) Regular disconnections. My CG7500 loses the internet and/or stops broadcasting a signal on a daily/hourly basis. Usually unplugging the unit and plugging it back in would help, but not for very long. This problem has become even more frequent over the last month. My previous Comcast Xfinity modem/router had no such issues.
Speed: When working properly, the speed of the CG7500 on 5Ghz is good, with download speed at over 250MB/s and upload at 30MB/s, consistent with the speed of Internet service I pay Comcast for. On the 2.5Ghz signal my download speed is very inconsistent (but always below the 5GHz speed at the same distance from the router) and doesn't seem to provide any extra signal range versus the 5Ghz band(ugh!)
Update: Linksys accepted my return and refunded my money without much hassle. I do appreciate that they made it right after we couldn't get the product to function as desired.
Last evening the router decided to forget all the network programming that I had done under the guidance of the service rep. I had to reset the modem and then go through the process again.
When it is not working correcting, many devices do not "see" the router network and therefore cannot connect.
We will see if things improve or get worse.
