    It does it's job for the price. Fast router, handles the speed of the modem. For WiFi and multiple wireless devices running at once is where it falls short.

    Apparently some units have an issue with sensitivity for time warner cable Internet. It loses connection and resets periodically. Netgear support is sending me a replacement unit but when it is working it does well.

    Our family upgraded from TWC modem/router. No issues with Netgear products. We also added Netgear Nighthawk router with this modem. No more buffering. Streaming is much better in our home!

    It works as attended. I have a small switch hooked up to it so I can have more connections. I bought this so I don't have to pay for the modem from the cable company.

    I replaced my rented modem from the cable company and within a few months I will recoup the cost of the Net Gear modem. It works just as well, if not a little better.

    If you're looking for a router so you don't have to pay that router rental fee then this is what you need to go with! It's affordable and pays for itself within the first 6 months.

    It was harder to set up than expected because the settings are like speaking another language. Plus the dual band is stop of because the 2.4 is way slower than the 5.0 so why would you connect to the 2.4????

    Bought this to use with our new Spectrum internet service. It does the job well, and saves us money since we don't have to pay the monthly rental fee for Spectrum's own equipment.

    I wanted something that would reach far enough so I could listen to music while out doing yard work on my land. This definitely does the trick, it never cuts out on my phone.

    My one complaint with this product is the way the legs attach to the modem, very weak and if they get bumped even slightly, will fall off. Other than that does its actual purpose very well.
