I finally got around to upgrading from our old Nighthawk X10. I looked at the current models and decided on the tri-band due to the speed, versatility, and coverage. It pairs well with the Nighthawk DOCSIS 3.1 Cable Modem I got a couple of years ago. I am getting much faster speeds over both WiFi and wired connections. I am guessing it is because I have a lot more wireless devices in the house (cameras, door bells, streaming devices, pet food feeders/sprinklers, etc.). Initial setup was quite easy with the app. WiFi and most of the network came back up within 10 minutes. (It helps if you change the network name and password to the old one so you don’t have to change every single wireless device). Hooking up the NAS drives in aggregate mode took a little more research tho.

This is an amazing router. Had an Adtran router from my ISP it was awful. The first adtran router they provided burned out in 3 months. They don’t know why but they did replace it. Worked fine for about 5 months then throughput dropped to 50mbps felt like I was stuck back in 2005. Had enough of the adtran router. Went out to bestbuy was skeptical to buy due to some reviews, price was good, stated throughput was good. Checked out a Asus, Msi, etc. again reviews had me skeptical paying the price for a gaming router and went with this beast for a test. I am not disappointed! This router trucks! Even with multiple devices connected downloads and uploads are 1200-1500mbps. Adtran router claimed to be doing 1500mbps in its own Speedtest but anything outside their Speedtest was garbage. Speedtest.net showed 5-50mbps. Gaming was atrocious. Videos and movies were grainy and would freeze. 100% price to performance worth it. Great coverage area, great latency and speed, more than impressed with the BE9300!

Setting up this router was a breeze. I had it going in about 15 minutes flat after physical installation and updates. The speeds, via hardline, are exceptional. We have 1 gb speeds and this router delivered on that flawlessly. The wifi is where it falls a bit short. Speeds via wifi are actually great the range is where the life is sucked out of it. Go beyond one room and you start seeing bars disappear. Besdies this, unless you have a huge home its a great choice.

I replaced an older nighthawk router because I thought it was the cause of my network outage. It ended up being a Spectrum node issue that they didnt discover until after two service visits. This was actually a blessing in disguise as my network speed doubled with the new router. Easy setup using nighthawk app that I already had. I really like that you can tell it to automatically choose which network band to use so only one router name shows up in your device wifi setup instead of three (2.4g, 5.0g, 6.0g). It is seamless so your phone or other device just switches to the band with the best signal depending on distance from router. I didn’t even know about 6.0g until I got this router. It works really well if you are close enough to the router.

Was wanting to get a better router as recently our WiFi plan was upgraded. I really like the smart connection, where instead of having all three WiFi routes open there is only one and the best one is used for the device. I also like how it shows the potential amount of WiFi goes to each device. I do wish though there was a way to have it prioritize a device, as i like playing games I would want it to prioritize my Xbox when possible but I have yet to fine a setting or location where I can do that. It does feel like the WiFi is no longer being choked by the router as some devices feel like the WiFi is faster. It also is quiet a nice size that fits really well with how we have our set up for our modem and such.

Recently upgraded my router and this was the one chosen at my local BestBuy. It was a Huge upgrade and the performance increase was well worth the investment. The current WiFi on my network are 10x better than before. Even wired into the router I’m finally getting over 1.3gbs download. I’m impressed and worth the investment. Upgraded my modem as well.

This router works amazing! It was exactly what I needed and in the long run I am saving money by not having to rent a router from my internet company!

[Employee of bestbuy] This is an extremely powerful and consistent wifi router. It boots quick if a restart is needed compared to past Netgear nighthawk routers iv owned. It pairs well with my att fiber modem. Remember to call your internet service provider to allow their modem for a passthrough that way the Nighthawk works. I am extremely happy with this product. With multiple story homes its always best to use a mesh system. This router may be able to fit the needs of a large or single story home perfectly fine.

The product is good, and so far it has never given me any problems, and it's easy to install. It's very fast. It also has protection that takes care of all the devices. I really like it for its security, and I recommend it.

I had my old router fail, but this one is incredibly good. It exceeded my expectations

Title: It is awesome!!! Description: I can't believe what I have been missing. This router is super fast. Great purchase!!!

Paired with the Netgear CM3000 modem and it's vey good. Great range in our 2200 sq ft home.

Geek Squad installed it and no comparison to Fidium one. Very fast loading wish I had it a lot sooner! ❤️

Distance seems better than previous router Not sure yet have only had for month

Working great so far! Easy set up! Love Netgear Products!

I wish the router had more ethernet ports but it seems to be in line with other routers on the market. If your house is close to 2500 ft.², I would not recommend. My router is below my bedroom, but Wi-Fi coverage isn’t as strong as I expected. For the price, I should have gone with another option.

Excellent router, works perfectly for 1gig internet and is able to handle all of my devices perfectly. Armor service was a little annoying but goes away in a month.

Improvement from where we came from - Router has improved our office connectivity and speed.

Great product. It's super fast happy with it at this point.

The QR code in the box was very easy to set up my network and the speed and coverage are above what I thought.
