Hi.
I have a linksys EA4500 and a Linksys EA8500. The EA4500 I ended up
downgrading to an older firmware, but the EA8500 looks at first like it
isn't accessible, but it is perfectly so once you get the hang of it.
What is your problem? I'm returning my EA8500 for a non accessibility
related issue with it. I'll probably then try a linksys WRT1900. If
you're going through routers trying to find one, what is your budget I
might just be able to help. One that I think I can recommend is tp link
archer c9, but how much are you willing to spend? I haven't tried the TP
link yet, it's on my list if the WRT1900AC doesn't get the job done. I
do have a TP link access point though and the interface is awesome on that.
Just in case you're having the exact same issue I did additionally with
EA8500, there are configuration features near the bottom of the page.
Use h till you get to router settings. Under that heading you'll
probably have what they call tabs, but the screen reader doesn't
indicate any control type at all it just says, connection,
troubleshooting, WiFi, security. You can press space on these even
though it doesn't say link or button or clickable, and then you'll get
confused because the page doesn't generally reload. It just adds the
text of the new screen down below, you can probably down arrow, or use
the h key till you hear connection, for instance. Each page you load
from the tabs I already mentioned will have a further subset of options,
like for security you get Firewall, something I've forgotten, and
Applications and gaming. The latter of those is what you need for port
forwarding for instance. So could it be everything is there for you but
you didn't try clicking on things that aren't indicating that they are
clickable elements?

Hi:
Purchase the Netgear 4500 router. It has to be one of the easiest routers I
have ever installed. Plug and play and I was surprised to find out it comes
without a software CD. The web interface is accessible and that's how you
set it up.

Hi all,
I have a Linksys a6500 at home, it is an smart wifi router,and I am getting
some problems with the web interface of this router. I need a good routher
that allows to connect at least 15 wifi devices multi tasking, , dual band,
and with an UI accessible. It is the most important thing for me, I am not
able to modify the settings in my routehr due to the accessibility problems.
Any advice?
