Good value for basic home wifi

Verified Purchase:Yes
One Saturday my old router finally kicked the bucket. Since I only have a Roku for TV service without wi-fi I've got nothing. Did some quick browsing and came across this one. I have been a big fan of Linksys/Cisco for years so this was my first choice.
Plenty of throughput for both streaming and using my tablet at the same time. For the price range it's great. I love that you can set up a guest login as well so you don't have to change your password every time you let someone login.
Setup is about as easy as you can make it. Just pop in the CD and follow the prompts. There is an option for more advanced users but most will probably do just fine with the CD.
The only con with this router is signal strength in a crowded environment. If you live in an apartment complex with several other routers in the same building you can get quite a bit of interference. I mostly noticed it when playing games on my tablet. If you are in a single family house you should be fine. Not sure what the max range is but I have no dead spots in my 2bd apartment.
Overall I like it. No major complaints and like I said above, I've been a fan of the brand(s) for years. Maybe not for the hardcore gamer or super hd streaming but works fine with my Roku, tablet and laptop.

What exactly does the button on the cord in the picture do? Does it allow you to pause & answer a call if plugged into a phone? Does it allow you to pause/play when using an iPod?

Charge your device quickly and easily with this Samsung USB-C cable. It also transfers photo, video, data and music files between your smartphone and laptop.
It´s ok for samsung galaxy s6 edge + ?
The Galaxy S6 plus uses a micro USB cable, so no this will not work. If you meant the S8 plus then yes it will work.

Nest Protect Smoke and Carbon Monoxide Alarm - 2nd Generation (Battery): Nest Protect reliably detects and alerts you to the presence of smoke or carbon monoxide in your home. The alarm speaks to you in a calm, clear, human voice, telling you the location of the danger. It also provides smartphone alerts and battery status updates to help protect your home.
For the battery version, if one alarm goes off in one room will it be able to communicate with other battery versions in other rooms to make them go off as well? Would like to the know the answer whether the wifi network is up or if its down.
Yes, it does communicate with the other Protects in the home. Does it work without the Wifi? Never tested that. But I would say that unless it is your router that catches on fire you will probably be alerted long before the WiFi gives out. But since they have a built-in ad hoc wifi they have probably considered that as well.

Chromecast and Bluetooth options?
If I'm using this through my home stereo, and controlling with my iPad, can I still use bluetooth speakers at the same time?
No, at least not practically. If the app you are using is sending to the chromecast it will not be able to send to a different set of BT speakers. That is an app/phone limitation not chromecast. I guess you could play from two different music sources but I would know why you would want to.

I want to play music from my smartphone's SD card, through WiFi, to my stereo receiver (not Pandora iHeart or Spotify). Will this audio casting device work for me?
