According to our router expert
The Linksys EA6900 is a lightning-fast dual-band router with a maximum WiFi speed of 1300Mbps. Today, more and more devices require a wireless network and individuals tasks are becoming increasingly demanding. This router allows you to easily download files wirelessly, stream HD movies, and play online games simultaneously (even in the future). The Linksys EA6900 has 3 configurable WiFi antennas and features beamforming technology. This technology makes it possible to focus a wireless signal directly on receiving devices. As a result, the WiFi signal will more easily pass through walls and around corners and the overall signal strength will be better.

A very solid product that is installed in 1, 2, 3. In fact, everything happens automatically, not even a single problem with the Linksys being behind a Telenet router. Smart WiFi is an absolute must: manage your network from a user-friendly app that can be downloaded for free on the iPad. In any case, I am very satisfied with it, also with the ability to prioritize traffic! An additional advantage is that with Smart WiFi you can even view and control your home network from anywhere else on the globe (see who is connected, change password, view logs, provide guest access, etc.).

The aim was to easily manage and control internet access and to distribute internet traffic evenly among the users. This router does that perfectly, by creating an online account with Linksys you can manage the router from anywhere via a website or iOS/Android app. Each device you connect (wired or wireless) will be visible in the device list, where you can assign an icon and own name. Based on the assigned name, you can easily determine in parental control whether the device always, never or according to a self-determined schedule has internet access.
The device is located fairly centrally in the house, but the wireless signal is not as strong as hoped. My old Belkin router had a much stronger signal, but obviously couldn't match the Linksys' speeds. Maybe this is not a problem and I have to settle for a less strong signal that still gives a higher speed than my old Belkin. The unit can simultaneously broadcast on 2.4 and 5GHz, and there is a guest network that can be easily turned on or off.
The configuration website looks fine, but is quite cumbersome at times. Especially with the first settings, the router has to restart regularly, you don't get the option to make a number of changes and then restart only 1 time for those changes to take effect.
You can also reserve bandwidth by prioritizing certain devices from the device list or programs. The list of programs and games contains the most common things, you can also add rules yourself, for the advanced user, of course. For the time being I do not use this because everything still works smoothly, but with 3 children at home who play online games while also streaming YouTube and chatting via Skype at the same time, things sometimes go wrong and this device offers possibilities that the Belkin does not. had.
