    I figured this would be another waste of money considering the brand. Had a member from geek squad help me out and educate me on technology a bit.

    It was always a huge hassle to reset my old router (unplug, wait, rinse and repeat). This resets itself, I just have to reconnect from my computer.

    The product is good but we purchased the incorrect product for our needs. Best Buy took it back with no problems.

    I am very satisfied with my purchase. I was hesitant due to my lack of knowledge, however an associate who was off helped tremendously. Thanks

    Didn’t Work For My Needs

    I have a small one bedroom apartment with a weird dead zone in the bedroom. I purchased this unit spontaneously at the recommendation of a sales associate at BB when I was researching OLED TVs. I went back and purchased an Eero Mesh WiFi system later to see which worked better. I retuned the Netgear. I’m giving it 3 stars because it seemed like it should have worked according to the specs. It just didn’t work for me in my space.

    My favorite feature is the ability to prioritize devices on my network. (Roku and my tablet no longer interrupted by the kids on their devices.)

    Like that this has two external antennas instead of internal ones that seems to make connection spotty at times.
