I would give it -10 stars, but not an option. The app cannot discover its own router, and it appears to be an issue with the 5 GHz band my phone is connected to. BTW, some of my devices cannot attach to the 2.4 band unless I reboot the router, it really sucks. Not getting a Linksys again, that's for sure.

Why the xxx is this still in the store since the only thing it does is prompt you to download a different app which wants more info than it really needs to create a web account I don't want. Maybe even Tim for a different router.

Why one would like to use this app instead of the built-in management interface?
