It'll do the job, but it doesn't have the range that my Netgear 600 had. And I haven't seen any change in speed.

Router setup was quick and easy. Worked great for a week. Then it just died. Resetting didn't make any difference. Returned easily back to Beat Buy. Back to researching.

Expensive and Weak Signal Strength

I own several Netgear routers and this one was too expense for its capabilities. Feature wise it was fine but signal strength was weak compared to other models I have had and the cost was way too much for what I got. I would rather have gone with the model I purchased last year which was a little cheaper and has great range.

Had to be reset every other day

Netgear needs to step up their game. This device and many other device need to be reset every other day or else the WiFi speeds bogs down from 100MB to 2MB and once the device is restarted, you'll be back at the 100MB speed test mark. It's highly annoying to having to reset that frequently.
