Bought the Nighthawk AX4 along with the ARRIS - SURFboard 32 x 8 DOCSIS 3.0 Cable Modem upon recommendations from some of best buy staff as I was looking for something to replace the provided modem/router combo from Spectrum. Was initially put off by the price... Together they're not cheap. I was going to go with a all-in-one model, but after doing my research, decided that individual pieces would be better. I have to say... The speeds are amazing. Downloading updates on your phone? Don't blink or you'll miss them. Now the longest part is the install. Gaming? I tested it out side by side with my brother. He's got a AT&T uverse modem and router. Where he was looking at 45 minutes to upwards of 2 hours for game downloads, I was able to download and install in under 20. I can't comment on the range of the two, as I live in a crappy little apartment, but I automatically log in when pulling into the parking lot. Yes, they are expensive. But as the old adage goes, you get what you pay for. Do you need a setup that downloads your movies before you even decide what you're going to watch? Maybe not, but it's nice. Do you need a gaming connection that provides a flawless, constant connection that lets you die that much quicker? Maybe. With 5 devices all connected to the setup, I was running over 200 mbps download, which is/was just numbers to me, but I know that when I was running the Spectrum setup, I wasn't getting above 50 mbps. My verdict... Get this! It works with spectrum, and is one of their approved devices. Also provides an app that allows you to monitor your network and adjust users and usage, it has quickly become worth the money.

I was impressed with this router. New Wifi 6 standard with an easy to use interface to configure it. Liked that you have endless entries for forwarding ports compared to my previous Linksys router which only had a dozen entries for forwarding ports. I also was easily able to setup my dynamic IP to update www.dyn.com. Router has strong signal to my wifi devices and downloads speeds are incredible. Very Pleased with this product and would recommend it.

Super easy Nighthawk App set up. So far router is way better than expected. Super fast had 4 simultaneous 4k feeds going with zero buffering. Best bang for the buck!
