Is a Linksys router warranty right for you?

Buying individual warranties—like a Linksys® router warranty—for all your devices can get expensive. But for just $24.99 per month, Asurion Home+® covers all your favorite home tech against the unexpected.

Asurion Home+ offers Linksys router protection and benefits a Linksys router warranty can’t provide

Device warranties can provide peace of mind—but they can also expire. Asurion Home+ protection doesn’t. It covers all of your eligible home tech (Linksys routers included) from mechanical and electrical breakdowns, normal wear and tear, and more. But it also offers benefits a Linksys router warranty can’t provide, like expert support, data security, and photo storage.

How does a Linksys router warranty stack up?

A Linksys router warranty may not offer all the protection you need. But Asurion Home+ can cover all your Linksys devices for less than $1 per day. It’s just one of the reasons to consider a protection plan over a warranty:

  • Over time, heat can become one of the most harmful issues for a router, as these devices often rely on passive cooling.

  • Routers have an average lifespan of about 3–5 years. However, a router can last much longer if it's properly maintained.*

  • Signs that a router might be experiencing a breakdown include slower speed, reduced range, and other malfunctions.

A Linksys warranty won’t cover 
all your devices

The average home contains $11,000+ worth of technology.** Good thing Asurion Home+ covers thousands of devices.

What does Asurion Home+ cover?

Unlike a traditional Linksys router warranty, our Asurion Home+ protection plan offers peace of mind for less than $1 per day. We can protect your Linksys router from many unexpected breakdowns. This plan is a service contract that is different from a product warranty provided by a manufacturer. It does not extend the term of any manufacturer’s warranty.

Our plans cover the cost of expensive repairs or replacement parts, and if we can’t fix your Linksys router, we’ll send you a replacement or reimburse you for its current value. We also cover mechanical or electrical breakdowns caused by manufacturer defects, power-surge damage, normal wear and tear, dust, heat, and humidity.

A Linksys router warranty expires, Asurion Home+ coverage lasts

An individual Linksys router warranty can only protect one device.

Fast and easy repairs without a Linksys router warranty

Linksys routers break down, but if yours isn’t under the original Linksys router warranty, you may be stuck paying expensive repair costs. Asurion Home+ is less than $1 per day, and when you need to get your Linksys router back up and running fast, our experts are here to help. From Linksys router repairs to replacements, we offer flexible service—whether at your home or at one of your local uBreakiFix by Asurion stores.

Does Asurion Home+ cost more than a Linksys router warranty?

The gadgets we love aren’t cheap, especially Linksys routers. And if you include the cost of a single Linksys router warranty and the warranties for other tech, like smart TVs, smart watches, and game consoles, it can add up fast. It’s more convenient—and cost effective—to cover all of them under one protection plan. That’s why Asurion Home+ offers an affordable solution. For just $24.99 per month, plus applicable taxes, we cover nearly all the tech in your home under one simple plan. It’s a small price to help keep your devices protected.

Is a Linksys router warranty worth it?

The average U.S. household spends over $11,000 on technology.* Instead of buying a Linksys router warranty that will only cover your Linksys router, consider Asurion Home+, which will cover every device in your home—even the devices you haven’t bought yet. Your Linksys router will be covered against failures due to mechanical and electrical breakdown, normal wear and tear, dust, heat, and humidity, and power-surge failures. A Linksys router warranty can’t offer that level of protection. Even if you have a homeowner’s or renter’s policy, it may still only provide basic protection against fire and other catastrophes.

An Asurion Home+ router protection plan can provide coverage for the most common breakdowns on all your favorite home tech for less than $1 per day. It’s the last warranty you’ll ever need.
