According to our router expert
Uninterrupted gaming over your wireless network, while simultaneously streaming Full HD movies to multiple wireless devices. With Linksys EA8500, you can set up a stable wireless network for all your home devices. This router will simultaneously perform several difficult tasks without any effort, thanks to its Multi-User MIMO technology. The antennas are designed to directly aim at the receiving devices. This helps the WiFi signal to go around corners and pass through walls, and it greatly increases wireless stability and range.

I myself have had the EA8500 router for two days now. The device also works excellently with the MU-Mimo. It is very convenient that I can manage my network from anywhere via the Linksys smartwifi.
What I like but don't use is the option to create two VLANs. I also think the price is not too bad if you look closely at all the possibilities that this device has.
The range of the 5 GHz network is slightly less than expected. But it even goes through a thick ceiling with a good connection. The 2.4 GHz network does have a very large range.
