Ideal for busy households

The Linksys EA8100 AC2600 MU-MIMO cable modem serves homes with up to 15 connected devices across 1,800 sq. ft. MU-MIMO technology sends Wi-Fi to multiple devices at the same time and same speed, so streaming, gaming and work can run together without lag. It delivers up to 2.6 Gbps Wi-Fi speeds and up to 2x the speed of non-MU-MIMO routers.

Fits a standard broadband setup

The unit connects to your cable line and provides Gigabit Ethernet ports for wired devices such as PCs, consoles or NAS units. DFS certification triples the number of channels available at 80 MHz, giving the router a clearer airspace than traditional routers. Easy setup out of the box means it integrates into an existing network without extra configuration steps.

Includes extended coverage

An exclusive extended 18 month warranty adds protection beyond the usual period, reducing the chance of unexpected repair costs. The bundled easy-setup workflow gets the network running quickly, freeing time for other tasks. No additional software licences or subscription services are mentioned in the specifications.
