App needs more options
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Router is good if you set it up for its intended purpose. If your buying as a access point or extending your WiFi the nighthawk app will not let you configure. You have to sign in using a computer and manually plugging in the router to your laptop or cpu. I would go into more detail but that would be a novel. Once again basic use great access point thumbs down.

Slow router. 100 mbsp!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The front of the box says it capable of 1000 mbsp and I tried this router for a long time I spend 3 hours troubleshooting with netgear, is only capable of 100 mbsp ! Don’t buy it if you plan to use with higher speeds from your internet provider.

Good, functional router
||Posted . Owned for 9 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this along with the NETGEAR - 32 x 8 DOCSIS 3.0 Cable Modem. I am far from being a techie but this was easy to set up and it's working great. The signal strength in my office is very good. No complaints at all here!

Q: Questioni don't know much about this kind of stuff. I have fiber optics running to my house, I was thinking of just getting a router instead of my cable package and get my internet package instead. Do I also need a modem if I want to get netflix and hulu?
Asked by routermodemquestion.
- A:Answer You will need a modem, which is provided by the fiber company. This modem MIGHT already have the router and wireless built in. In which case you have all you need. But, if the modem is ONLY a modem, then you would need to buy this router / wireless device and plug it into the modem. Don’t worry too much about what the router does. It just allows multiple things to connect. This device, by the way supports both wireless AND direct computer plug in (with a wire). Does that clarify things a bit? BTW, I am also a cable cutter and have no need for cable TV.

Q: QuestionI have an Apple Airport. I just upgraded my modem 20 a 28x4 unit and upgraded my internet to 300Mbps. It appears that the Airport is no longer capable of reaching speeds I am paying for. Would this be a good replacement to get me better speeds and ease of
Asked by Azkobushi.
- A:Answer No. Don't waste your money. I got 150Mbhp from Xfinity and never got more than 100Mbps. Started to doubt this router and then I found out the input Ethernet is actually not supported for 1000Mbps. Max speed for the Ethernet is only 10/100Mbhps, regardless of output speed so-called 300/700Mbhps. Feels like been humiliated by this product. If your input is so slow it really doesn't matter how fast the output speed is. When advertise it emphasis only the output speed.

Q: QuestionCan my new tablet connect to internet with this router.
Asked by jerry.
- A:Answer This is a wifi router. Assuming your tablet has wifi capability (I don't know any that do not!) you can connect to this router. If your router is connected to the internet (via ethernet cable to an internet modem) you will be able to connect to the internet. Remember this is a router, not a modem. So you can not connect it directly to your internet ISP source. If you have a modem from your internet provider (like ATT, Uverse or Spectrum Cable) you would connect this router to that modem.

Q: QuestionI am currently renting a modem from Spectrum ( cable company )which I use for my fire stick. Is it possible to get rid of the cable company modem and just by one from Best Buy instead of renting every month ? Thanks
Asked by AG.
- A:Answer That’s exactly what I did. Just plug it into the Spectrum modem and you’re ready to go. I would recommend getting a dual band, or tri band, router so you can have both 2.4ghz and 5ghz bands to give you a little more flexibility. The fire stick will use 5ghz but many home automation devices still use 2.4ghz. I use an ASUS AC3200 tri band.

Q: QuestionIf I just connect the NETGEAR router straight in the dsl port in my home will I revive internet or is the only a booster that I can connect to the router my service provided
Asked by Zach.
- A:Answer This is a Router so you will need a modem to connect to the DSL line and then from the modem to the router. If you have a modem router combo then this is not the product for you.
