    Product just fine. My complaint is that it comes w/ no directions. I don’t want to download an app. Very frustrating. I know that’s the way it is now.

    I needed something that can deliver good WIFI speed due to the old router was pretty outdated. I can definitely see the difference once this was set up.

    The product is great. This is my second unit. Had to purchase another because firmware update failed on the first. The sevice from Netgear is terrible. All I needed was how to get it to reboot.

    Love it. Great reception all over the house. Probably more than I needed, but the few extra dollars means that I have plenty of power for future needs.

    For the money, it isn't a bad router. The UI interaction is good and the features, while not top of the line, are good enough for simple household use.

    it worked well, however, our house is rather large, so we did end up purchasing a second router to transmit the signal

    Setup tries to push you to app instead of just giving me an IP address. Updates take a little while setup is not quick as it could be.

    I've had this router for about a month and it seems to handle what I need it to do. Works well wired to my PC for gaming and wired to my Roku for streaming. My phone connects wirelessly, but the connection for the 5ghz speed drops out when I'm in the next room. The 2ghz speed also drops out when i go in to my kitchen, 2 rooms away. Maybe its my phone or my walls aren't meant for wifi, but this router seems to have low wireless range on both frequencies.

    The router worked well in my application. Automatically detecting that the wan was in its default subnet and changing the lan subnet to another value is a great feature

    Hook up was easy and a breeze but it would work with my inner company equipment. I try get supports help to get work they call your inner company we can't help you and innet company told me the same thing. I not good with how all this works and so I tried for a couple days to get work doing what it said so I just gave up and took back to store.
