NETGEAR - Nighthawk X4S Wireless-AC Dual-Band Wi-Fi Router - Black

I'm not as tech savvy as I'd like to be when it comes to networking. I did as much research as I could between this one. The r7500v2 and the linksys equivalent that I can't remember. And went with this purchase. WOW it was a big difference going from my EA6350 router (which was only a year old). Before, I did not have good 5ghz coverage being between floors and about 50 feet away from my ea6350. Now with this one I can go anywhere in my 1500 sq ft house and get over 90% signal on this router. I also get my maximum speed from Comcast (250mbps) when speed testing on 5ghz wifi when far away from the router. I could barely break 100 on my old router. The only drawback is that I had 2 instances of my Xbox one connected via Ethernet was not able to connect to Xbox live. Resetting the router fixed that issue. Make sure to buy extended warranty on any router you buy. Routers are more susceptible to exhibit connectivity issues later down the road. So this makes it easy to swap out no hassle

Not the most expensive but the one I have been most satisfied with so far. It last a feature I love which is auto management of the 2.4ghz and 5ghz networks but even though this takes a little more assigning I find that it works better. My previous router had that feature and I found unreliable signals every so often as it had devices on 2.4 ghz when it felt it was better but it actually wasnt, it did the same with the 5ghz. After testing I know what devices perform best in which rooms on each networks so I have more control using the older method. Otherwise my only other annoyance is the old interface in the settings. Everything else is top notch, it looks cool, is very reliable, has great signal strength (large antennas), and performs like a champ. I have zero issues with ping on my PC in online games and stream all the 4K video my heart desires. I highly recommend this if you do not want to break the bank and want something that will work as advertised.

This router is performing excellently for a 2 bedroom apt connecting to at least 4 devices all at one time! I can stream Netflix while searching on my smart phone, as my roomie plays ps4 (& does not lag at all) & plays music on Google home or searches on a smart phone or streaming on a tablet or laptop. Awesome router!

Netgear Nighthawk X4s Wireless Dual-band Wi-fi Router was easy to setup. It provided exceptional Wi-Fi coverage to the most distant parts of my home. In minutes my computer, printers, and mobile phones received total Wi-Fi coverage. The SMART TV function transformed the reception to a level of perfection I had not seen on both my televisions. Netflix was easily streamed in and I was thoroughly pleased with the purchase of this router.

The router works great but it has a bright LED power indicator light. There is a button to turn on and off the LED lights for other functions but not the power light which gets in the way. I have the router in our movie room and had to put something over the light.

This is alot better than what i expected the QOS makes life so much easier i recommend this to all my friends.

After setting this router up, I wasn't able to have a signal everywhere on our 2 level home.

the router worked up until now but its not turning up now. power led is off o ly eSATA led is on. So I am gonna give no or 0 Star.
