    As with the phones purchased, have not had the G 34 router long enough to offer a proper opinion of the product. However, since you ask, I can say this; The new router will not recognize my printer. Will have to get help to resolve that issue. As to the below question, would I recommend the item to others ? I don't know yet..... DRB

    Unfortunately it did not work for what I needed, however, if it was compatible, I could see it would have been a perfect fit. Unfortunately my internet provider was difficult to find a compatible part to.

    To be honest, buying this was an accident but a MASSIVELY great one. I had no idea how fast my internet could have been until I bought this. Plus, the range on this extends to the end of my yard. I do have a home on a 1/4 acre. I would recommend it to any workers from home, gamers and multi family homes that share the internet.

    It works but I did not need it, my other one worked just fine. The problem was with the cable coming from the pole to the house.

    I bought this but ended up not needing it as the internet company provided a modem with my service. However, I was very pleased with how easy it was to return. Best Buy employees made the chore a breeze. Thank you!!

    I have already returned this item. I could not install it with the app. I then had the cable company send out a service person to install it. I managed to get two laptops and one roku tv to connect but no other devices could connect. Tech assistance from Arris could not provide a solution and disturbingly their terminology did not match that of the products published or on line information.

    Seemed to improve the range of my internet, however somewhat complicated when it comes to modifying settings such as changing the password. Also seems to have to be reset periodically because of lost internet connection.
