    Great Wi-Fi Dual Band Router

    I had an old Netgear single band wifi router and we were starting to have problems with it watching Roku Tv and running a cellphone or other equipment off of it. I decided to upgrade and get this Dual Band router from Netgear. I had some complications getting it to download the software. Once I did get everything working and reset it works perfectly....we can run gaming systems, Roku Tv and cellphones without pauses, skips, and dropped shows. Well worth the money and patience in set up.

    This is my second NetGear, the first one lasted about 5 years before it started to drop connections. I expect this one to do even better.
