I usually use the AC1750 for most installs but used this at my father's house and it works great. He only streams media from 1 tv and has a total of about 10 network items. This has the range and speeds that keeps him working.

On the 5G setting I am getting 120 MBPS according to speedtest.net
This device was easy to set up and it has a USB port for a portable hard drive to plug into. I bought a 2 terra byte external hard drive and use it to back up my computer weekly.

I am very happy with the initial use of his device. It has increased the distance to backyard areas which were intermittent before. It has also increased the signal strength for streaming movies which previously had interruptions. Overall very satisfied with it.

Works perfectly with all my devices.with my old router I would have to reset at least 3 times a week if I was lucky. Had this router for 2 months now and not once have I needed to reset. 2.4 has great range, 5g not that great but good speed when connected.

I am so happy with this new router. I have Spectrum and was frequently having difficulty getting on the internet. Since hooking up the new router, I have had no further problems. My internet speed is also much faster. It was very easy to set up.

You can still take advantage of this offer from Best Buy: "Get 15% off a new modem, router or modem/router combo and Geek Squad® In-Home Wi-Fi Setup service when you bring in any of these devices for recycling."
I took my old Netgear wifi router and I received 15% of the new one. This was a pretty sweet deal! The router is pretty easy to install. The radio connection is through 2 frequency 2.5 and 5 GHz. The newer devices are connecting automatically to the faster 5 GHz. The Genie app (I tried only the Android version) offers all kinds of cool wifi analitics like signal strength, transfer rate, etc.
The only thing that it seems to be missing is the control over phone cellular data. Android app can't remote control the router if not connected on the same wifi, or at least personally I couldn't figure it out.
Overall I would definitely recommend this product.

Since installing this I have had trouble printing wirelessly from different devices. Apparently because of the two networks I have to tell each device everytime which one to use to print. I am not computer savie so it has not been a user friendly device for me. The strength of the signal is fine but still a few problems upstairs too.

Got this router for a good price on black friday. So far works great. This was an update to my old g router, such big difference in connection. Now I can stream netflix, play on ps4, have laptop running plus phones on wifi at the same time and no interruption at all. Love it!

A high rated router that is easy to setup (almost as easy as the Apple Airport devices I've had before) with great range. Handles the house and backyard without much trouble. Dual band so you can easily separate all the AC from the slower G And B stuff.

Netgear - Ac1200 Dual-band Wi-fi Router - Multi - hands down, the best performer in its class, providing affordable networking solutions for difficult coverage areas. Don't be fooled by the rest - Netgear is the best. Consistent performance, anytime, anywhere.
