Reviews

Annoying
Lilnesquikk

Sometimes doesn’t work Emmy wifi still dookie

Very clean interface
Scatterbrained genius

The only issue I had was trying to use LastPass to get my Linksys password. The keyboard became landscape sized, and the app runs in portrait, so I had to bring up my password on another device and type it in.

Annoying

Logs you out every other day and makes you go through the router setup process.

Simplicity

I am not a tech guy, but this was really easy to set up.

VELOP 3-node WiFi Router
BillD7250

I have had the Velop system installed for only one week, but so far I am very pleased. The setup including nice p,a cement was very easy, and the performance has been superior to any router plus extenders I have used to date. I am now achieving download speeds that are are much faster. Than K would normally need, but with the improved network speed I am able to utilize a couple of streaming services that I was unable to use with my old router.

Can’t get logged in
AndyCreeps

One day it logged me out and now I can’t get back in. The app support keeps telling me to reset my password which I have done several times, but no progress. They have offered ZERO other solutions so far.

Average

App does most of what it’s supposed to do. I’d say some things I’d like to see improved are, Being able to monitor bandwidth per device and improving device detection. The device list is missing some hardwired devices on my network. If the Velop is assigning IPs then it should know about the device.

Great setup but not accurate
Logic1124

When there is an issue with the internet you want to know what going on. Is it the nodes or is it the modem? The app doesn’t tell you what’s going on. Says everything is fine when my internet is down. The app has great control over you router but the fact that it doesn’t tell me when a node is disconnected or when my modem is down is why it deserves 2 stars.

Linksys app is surprising
Cap'n Stan the Christian man

I was amazed how user friendly the app is. I am 71 and I was pleasantly surprised how easy it was to follow.
