User questions & answers

Question:	Have comcast but computer in other room barely works connected via wifi....will this help or even work
Answer:	in my opinion this will help. before I got this router I had a smaller one. Then we started adding more technology in our home (smart TVs, tablets, etc) and the connections kept dropping. I got this router and I have not had an issue since.
Question:	I upgraded to 200mbps internet speed. i alreay purchased arris surfboard sb6 as the modem. will speed test show 200mbps or trottle it down at 100mbps
Answer:	What model of modem did you buy? Usually, the model number on the surfboards look like sb6xxx. Since you are paying for 200Mbps, your modem is going to be the first chokepoint but if you bought a DOCSIS 3.0 modem, then you should be able to reach speeds of 300Mbps. This specific router states on Linksys.com that the max link rate is 867Mbps. Given that you are hard-wired with cat 6 ethernet cable installed correctly (i.e. no runs over 100ft, no kinks, etc.) then you should be able to hit your 200Mbps speed provided by your ISP. Your wireless speed is determined by the server you are pinging as well as interference in your area and other devices in use on your network. A caveat, though, is that each category of internet speeds provided by your ISP is usually "up to..." so basically they will provide speeds up to the 200Mbps but no lower than the category under the one you pay for. I hope this answers your question!
Question:	Does the ea6350 have a build in dlna server
Answer:	Hi, Edi. It does have a DLNA server.
Question:	Can this be reconfigured as a range extender
Answer:	Yes, Give the router its own IP and then turn off DHCP. Plug cat5/6 into ports, 1-4 ( cable coming from other router. Depending on how many times you have added a router, will depend on the IP that you give it. If this is just the 2nd router, setup IP as 192.168.1.2, then make sure all your wireless settings are correct, and turn off DHCP. Power cycle the router and your should be good to go. I have 4 routers on my network.From the looks of some of the comments, I don't think there is a clear understanding of repeater and bridge and extend. Please learn what all these mean, in terms of networking, before you answer a question. You are only misleading people. This is and cannot be a repeater. You WILL need a network cable run from either your modem, or another router, to supply internet.

User questions & answers

Question:	can the 2.4 ghz band be disabled
Answer:	Yes, you can disable the 2.4 GHz band on the router's Wireless tool, Joel.
Question:	is the input already in auto volt
Answer:	If you plug say a laptop into a 110 volt outlet or possibly you're in another country and it's 220. It automatically detects the voltage rather than having to slide a switch or use another power supply altogether. The answer I'm not sure of. I'm sure it's available in the specs as some converters are and some aren't. At least that answers your question about (auto sensing) voltage.
Question:	How do you get a wireless printer to work with this router. Have a wireless HP D110 printer that will not work on any of my computers now
Answer:	Hi Deb. If the printer was set up with a different router before, you have to reconfigure the settings by using the setup CD that came with the printer. You may refer to your printer's manual or you may contact the printer manufacturer for a walk-through.
Question:	Is this router wall-mountable
Answer:	Yes it does if you are creative enough using two clear push pins as mounting stands for the lip of the router with cables facing down.

User questions & answers

Question:	I recently upgraded to Verizon gigabit and the modem router they give is lackluster. Does this just connect via Ethernet to the modem
Answer:	Yes. Connect the R7800 to the FiOS router (they don't use modems) by attaching an ethernet cable to one of the FiOS router's LAN ports, and the other end to any of the ports on the R7800. Then set up the R7800 in AP mode, and disable the Wifi of the FiOS router (not critical, but neater). The FiOS router will assign all the IP addresses, and the R7800 will provide wireless services. Works like a charm. You can use the LAN ports of both the FiOS router and the R7800 for wired connections.
Question:	Is this device able to plug and play via ethernet cable from my cable modem to extend my cable wifi range
Answer:	Yes. All of these Netgear routers can either be used as range extenders OR wired into becoming the primary internet source for your home. The latter is actually recommended, if your cable modem is basic and/or sends a weaker than warranted WiFi signal.
Question:	what are the two bands
Answer:	2.4 and 5
Question:	I have 150mbps service will this router give me that if I do a speed text
Answer:	I don't own this router, but I'd agree with Apollo Grace. Anything that's going to be using this ethernet port will be bottlenecked at 100Mbit maximum. If you're just using this for WiFi only or if you don't mind a maximum speed of 100Mbit on the ethernet port, then buy it. But there are similar products out there for the same price range with Gigabit ports allowing the full WiFi speed to go through the ethernet ports. https://www.amazon.com/TP-Link-AC1200-Smart-WiFi-Router/dp/B01IUDUJE0 (TP-Link Archer C1200) for example, and it's cheaper.

Answer:	It plugs in to 110 outlet. Has an adapter that converts the 110 to 12 V
Question:	How do i find my security keu for my cloud router Dir-619L
Answer:	if you go through the set up on your computer after you plug it all in right it will help you to create your own passkey or to generate one and you can change it the same way...I don't remember the exact steps but it was all spelled out in the set up...did you do the set up? You generate a key in set up first then you can change it or generate a different one any time.....by going back to the set up which sorry now I cant remember how to go back but I don't need to thank goodness as my key works and I have no real need to change it..its a great routet too by the way I bought it cause the people who share my large property with , we have three residences and all of us can share it and we are not really that close so I love it. Saves us a fortune as our isp would prefer we let them put three separate dishes for each of us but we don't have t owith this router so instead of paying almost $500 a month for service we pay $130 not a bad savings...
Question:	are the antenna removable
Answer:	No, they are not.
Question:	How can i find the Warranty for dir 619l router
Answer:	D-Link does NOT support this router, D-Link sold this router to Dish/Hughes and they assume all support related inquiries. Contact Dish at 855-318-0572 or contact Hughes at 866-347-3292 for all support. This product was only sold through Dish/Hughes, not to the consumer market.

User questions & answers

Question:	In repeater mode with two computers connected, does local traffic between the two go through the primary router? Or is it handled through the repeater
Answer:	An access point behaves as a switch, which forwards traffic to the correct port for the MAC address of the recipient. This means wireless to wireless traffic need not go to your router. The only difference between the router mode and access point is whether or not the unit is set up to interface with another network.
Question:	Are the wired LAN ports gigabit or only 100Mb/s
Answer:	Asus product page for this item says "RJ45 for 10/100/1000/Gigabits BaseT for LAN x 4, RJ45 for 10/100/1000/Gigabits BaseT for WAN x 1" which means 1G for all 5 ports (1 WAN, 4 LAN);
Question:	IN AP mode, can you connect both wired and wireless devices
Answer:	Yes, we have it in AP mode and also have a laptop wired to it. Works great with no noticeable reduction in speed.
Question:	My Cable company is charging me $10 a month extra for home networking and a modem. Can this work in place of the cable equipment and save me money
Answer:	No. The Asus RT-N12 is a router.. only... and has no cable modem function. Depending on your situation, you will need, at minimum, a compatible (check with your ISP) cable modem - latest Docsis version 3.0 is preferable though not required. Motorola seems to be a safe choice for most service providers. If you combine phone service with internet, than you will need a compatible cable/voice gateway instead of a simple modem. Gateways are much more expensive than modems and much harder to find, especially when considering compatibility.As far as saving money... if all you need is a modem and a router, then the combined cost will be let's say $107 (router= 40 + Motorola SB6121 = $67) + shipping. Considering your $10 rental fee, the equipment pays for itself in just under 1 year.... assuming that all you need is a modem and NOT a gateway.
