NETGEAR - AC1750 Dual-Band Wi-Fi 5 Router - Black

Router and wifi work OK so far but wasn't thrilled about the customer experience. My 12 year old Apple Airport Extreme gave out and needed something quick. I was not too happy the the Quickstart Guide in the box was simply a card that said to download an app. No manual (I have since obtained the manual online). Create an account, share email address ugh. Go through ad screens for additional software. More ughs. Barrage of emails on "days left for free security software" and offers for more paid services. App is so-so useful I suppose but would not miss it. Had I had the manual, would have simply access the router via ethernet and had it set up in less time. The coverage is about the same as the airport. Have a large lot and 3K SF home, covers everywhere. Apple was also gigabit. What I didn't expect is this thing lights up at night like Times Square. Have to keep the door to my home office closed at night. I've attached a pic of this Netgear next to the Apple, which only had one tiny amber/green light to show status. Oh, and it also had a 2Tb hard drive in it for backups. Maybe this is what all manufacturers provide these days. If so then I would change my "recommend to others" answer. Simpler is definitely better!

Love my new router! The range is awesome! I can even pick up a signal at my neighbors house across the street. Easy to install, love the user ID & password being on the router itself, makes it easier for my family to use. So glad I spent a little more this time on a router that has a greater range & with more device capacity. I hope this one will last us for a while! Thanks Best Buy for another great product & for having the most helpful, knowledgeable employees to help me in the store when I needed them.

I have replaced several routers and access points, but AC1750 finally meet my and my business customer needs. I could also use these as access points and that worked out well for me having a hotel business.

awesome works great actually a down grade from my last one and works way better

Great product just a little confusing set up but worth it.

I bought this router to replace my aging Netgear N600. This router has exceeded my expectations in every single way! -I has just silly fast data transfer rates. -The range is awesome, It reaches everywhere in my house, and downstairs into my parking garage, and it covers a good share of my yard outside. -Setup was super easy, and the "Nighthawk app" makes control effortless. -At any given time there are 7-8 devices running through this router (2 smart TV's, 3 phones, 3 tablets, 3 laptops, wireless printer, 2 Roku's, and several gaming consoles)...I have NEVER come even close to choking the performance of this router. -And in my opinion, this thing just looks cool too. The ONLY negative that some may find is, it's a pretty big piece of hardware, I don't mind it at all, but if your going for the "minimalist" look, you'll have to find a way to hide it...

After thoroughly reviewing various routers on the market, this one seemed the best and we have not been disappointed. We constantly had to reboot our old router and have had absolutely no problems with this one since we purchased it.

I needed a stronger signal and this was perfect. Before my purchase it was almost like the days of dial-up. Now I'm able to do things without waiting.
