Pros and cons

According to our router expert

This router has 3 separate WiFi connections, so you always have a stable WiFi network for all your devices.
With 8 network ports, the router has twice as many ports as comparable models.
Thanks to the PSK WiFi security, you only have to set a password once for all users of your WiFi network.
To achieve the highest available speed of this router, connected devices must support 5GHz.
This router offers coverage on 1 or 2 floors, depending on the size of your house. Choose multi-room WiFi for WiFi throughout your house.

Description

Set up a fast WiFi network to carry out the toughest network tasks without a hitch with the Linksys MAX-STREAM EA9500 tri-band router. Watch up to 20 4K streams at once or distribute the wireless network over different devices, such as game consoles, smartphones, and tablets. Since the EA9500 has 3 separate WiFi connections, you always have a stable network. The router automatically connects your device to the fastest and least busy band. Give important devices - such as your work laptop or backup hard drive - higher priority in the portal so that they go first. You can connect network devices without WiFi to 1 of the 8 network ports. Block websites unsuitable for children on your router or create a separate WiFi hotspot so that your guests can't access your NAS.

Beast of a router, well worth your money

Range
app
Multi-user
Expensive

Had a Linksys EA4200, but the many devices made it slow. With the EA9500 you have enough LAN ports and the MU-MIMO function ensures that all devices that you have connected via Wi-Fi work stably and have the right speed. With the old router you saw the dips continuously, especially if other devices were requesting a lot of data, with the EA9500 no worries at all.

Also important, reach. This thing radiates 15 meters around the station, regardless of walls etc. As a result, much better, further and more stable range inside and outside the house.

All this can be kept up to date via the app and set up on the PC, clear and easy to block websites or devices, but also to switch a guest network (also 5 GHz) on and off. Especially the 5 GHz network blows everything in the neighborhood away

All in all an expensive purchase, but well worth the money. If I control everything at the same time (2 TVs, 2 laptops, 3 tablets, 2 telephones and 4 LAN devices) I notice no delay, the speed test on 4 of these Wi-Fi devices indicate the same. Perfect

Wireless speed
Range
Very large

Easy to set up. Lots of lan ports behind is very useful. Mobile app is also very useful. It's big, so make sure to reserve a spot. Range is good, dead spots at home are gone.
