New Netgear AC2400 wireless router. Replaced old tired no longer supported WRT54R. Setup in app went very smoothly. Allows each device to be names like wife cell, my tablet, etc. Now Supports streaming TV , laptop, desktop, 3 tablets, smartphone. No longer get video hangs or drop out. At least double old range from out in shop to 2nd floor far side of house. Get link speeds over 100mbs. Internet speed went from 3-5mbs up to my paid limit of 20mbs. Very very happy with this unit.

I previously had a Netgear N750 router. I purchased the Nighthawk AC2400 thinking it would increase my wifi speed and coverage to my bedroom. It did not. I thought about returning the router, but I got a good deal on it so I kept it. However, I had to purchase an wifi extender in order to get a better wifi signal to my bedroom where I stream TV (DirecTV Now and Netflix). The bedroom is just 20' down the hall from the router (see photo), but the "router" signal alone was not strong enough to eliminate buffering, even with a 200mb internet connection.
