Connect Home Mesh 3pack
Easy set up. Good upgrade…

For anyone who has been looking to upgrade their router and has several smart devices in their home this should be a contender. But for me that had just upgraded to a Linksys EA8500 prior to receiving this product on top of not having but one or two smart devices in the home it doesn't make much sense for me. I still accepted this device with the hopes that it might provide better coverage as my home is over 4000sqft. After running before and after speed and coverage test it did not provide any upgrade from what I was currently using. This is not to say that it isn't a good router because it is, but for me it made no change and at a much higher retail cost. I purchased my EA8500 for $179 with equal coverage and speed. Obviously the advantage to the samsung product is the "Smart connect" option but is really only useful if you have products to connect to. Maybe once homes are more integrated and have dozens of smart devices through out it could be more useful. Even the smart wifi thermostat that I have in the home (honeywell and sensi) it was not compatible with the samsung router. So in the end it will be just specific to what your needs are because for me my EA8500 provided everything I needed at a much lower cost.
