    Works well if you want wifi in your home and you dont want to pay around 8.00 per month rental to your cable supplier for life.

    Bought this when it was on sale and was easy to hook up. I really enjoy Netgear routers and they work very well. I would recommend this purchase.

    I was able to plug in the device and use the preset password and it was that easy. After getting set up, the login to the router was easy as well and set up very quickly.

    I think I'm getting a larger range than I did with my old router. I used to loose wi-fi in the kitchen. Now I can use my computer at the kitchen table.

    Our new TV provider suggested we would save money by purchasing this exact product rather than renting through the service. It functions perfectly and was so easy to install.

    This worked as advertised, but I would suggest getting something a bit better, 1700, 1900, 2300 if you have a ton of smart devices.

    I decided that a separate modem and router combination was better than getting an all-in-one gateway based on my research. Setup was easy using the web interface via WIFI. There is a basic menu and an advanced menu for getting things configured. It receives the internet signal from my modem automatically. Set the security keys aka wifi passwords. That was easy to do using the web interface. This router is probably best for a one or two bedroom apartment and if you have a house you'll probably want something a little more powerful/faster, but for myself it's perfect. I haven't had any problems connecting or maintaining
