Router
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This Router is gives out a great signal strength in my entire house. Just remember to put the router in an open area where nothing is blocking it and high above the ground. You should buy this. Also the beam force technology is amazing.

Great Product; Easy Setup
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This product works exactly as advertised. It broadcasts two different wi-fi bands, and the 5G band is less "busy". Setup was a snap. I unboxed it, plugged it in, and turned it on. My computer setup the router very quickly. Easy peasy.

Works well right out of the box
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Had the router for 30 days now, and only once did I have trouble with it communicating with the modem. The fix was merely unplugging both the router and the modem for 4 minutes. Easy solution and fast speeds through multiple walls.

So far, so good
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have been through a couple routers, and decided to give netgear a try. The signal is plenty strong a couple floors down in my basement, perhaps slightly stronger than previous routers I have used. The installation for this router was about as effortless as possible, with just a couple of simple steps. However I can't judge this router yet in the long term, but I think overheating may have been an issue with previous routers and the vertical orientation of this router seems like it may be more efficient at staying cool and venting heat.

Buy with confidence

Great router

Fastest wireless internet!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Our speeds were so slow we decided to upgrade our router to this one. Best decision ever! Our speeds jumped up by 154mbps. We have charter spectrum. Have already had four friends purchase the same one and are all pleased

Good router. Lacking in some areas.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was hoping for a little better coverage area from this router. It's not much better than out existing FiOS router in our home. Pretty much the same cloud of coverage. Wish it had a few more features built in like basic firewall or parental controls that don't require you to install the Netgear Genie App, and create an account with OpenDNS (I think it was - I didn't bother at that point). Just more of a hassle to limit use by kids with less than stellar report cards during would-be gaming hours. The USB sharing was almost too simple to setup. First time I've played with it on a router as opposed to shared out on a nas or a computer and couldn't believe how easy it was and how well it worked. That feature alone gets it 4 stars in my book. Decent router.

Exactly what we needed
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We had great internet, but we kept losing connection with the router they set us up with. We have too many devices for that router to work right. This fixed the problem, and improved our speed more than we expected.
