Being a Blogger and a Virtual Assistant, it is VERY important that my internet is in tip-top shape and speed. Not to mention that having a family of kids, making sure all our internet gaming is at it’s best. Best Buy sent me the Linksys WRT3200ACM Router to put to the test.
A little about the Linksys WRT3200ACM MU-MIMO Gigabit Wi-Fi Router
The WRT3200ACM MU-MIMO Gigabit Wi-Fi Router is powered by Tri-Stream 160 technology, which doubles the bandwidth on all spatial streams for the fastest dual-band router on the market. Gain access to restricted DFS channels at full bandwidth for the clearest Wi-Fi not available to most other routers. The WRT3200ACM also boasts:

When I first started using wi-fi internet, I figured that all routers were the same. Now that I have a job based off of working on the internet, I realize how important having a good router is. I love the fact that the Linksys WRT3200ACM is engineered for customization. This router is Open-Source ready. This offers complete flexibility and customization of networking functions. Or you can use for optimizing the specific needs of your router – such as: Gaming, privacy, VoIP or Small office applications.
The Linksys WRT3200ACM router also has an app for your phone.
With this app you can manage and monitor the Wi-Fi network when you’re not even home. The Smart Wi-Fi application lets you also share your Wi-Fi via email or text with Guess Access. And you will also get a notification when your network is having issues. This has to be one of my more favorite features of this Router. In the past, I have had problems where my router has decided to go wonky on me, and then that kills a half day of work. Most of the time I’m sitting and trying to trouble shoot with my internet company, and it never fails, its something with my equipment. The notifications will help prevent me from gaining a few extra grey hairs.
