    NETGEAR Nighthawk

    I absolutely love it! Would recommend to my friends! It is easy to use and setup if you follow the instructions. Increases WIFI performance by 5x in my experience. In a college campus, it can be a little difficult to setup but I think that the benefits outweigh the setup experience.
