After a very easy configuration I've yet to touch it, it just works. It's running 3 ethernet connections and over 6 wi-fi devices without any difficulty, 3 of them are streaming TV's. . Very good Wi-Fi signal strength too.

Netgear quality shows again

I do a lot of network setup for work and friends and family, and Netgear equipment is my go to most of the time. This wireless router / VDSL modem doesn't not disappoint.
Traditionally Centurylink kicks out some of the worst modems thru their service, and couple it with subpar service. I need reliability that does not require manual reboots often. Netgear delivers with a modem that can be set to reboot occasionally during the night to help Centurylink limp thru service issues. This modem also has a strong WiFi signal that is reliable and a very solid firmware that provides quick and reliable wifi. I do recommend this router for anyone rookie or pro. Easy setup and avoids monthly rental fees for inferior service provider junk. Netgear is a leading standard.

Very easy set up. Looks great. Free app allows control over wifi in your home. We usually have 5 to 6 devices working off this router. One of them for on line gaming with no lag(according to my kids). 2 level home.

This worked great with my AT&T DSL. I did return it though, because shortly after purchase I upgraded to Uverse and did not need it. The setup was very easy and never lost connection like my previous router did.

This router is so much better than the old ATT router that I was using. When it broke, I decided to buy my own router and I am so happy that I did. My DSL ATT internet runs so much faster with this router!

I was having problems with DSL dropping the connection between the modem and my old router. The modem router combo fixed that. Emails come in faster. No more dropped connections, and setup and use is a breeze.

This router/modem is just what we needed to speed up our internet. We had equipment provided by our phone carrier and it wasn't very good. Replacing it with this has been a real benefit to our household.

After my service provider modem crashed, and they could not provide a new one for a week, the service rep suggested I buy my own. This modem is more than compatible with my system. My only disappointment is that it does not have separate ports for DSL and phone lines. My landline is in another room using the splitter, so I have to remove the internet line from the router/modem and put it in my all-in-one printer/fax to send or receive a fax.

We needed a better, more powerful DSL router/modem and this one works very well for us. The Windows 10 laptop now stays connected and our home wireless security system now operates perfectly. Thank you!

We switched modems recently and our experience has been good so far. It was easy to set up-took less than 10 minutes. We have had no problems with our connection. Seems to be a great product.
