    This has worked great for me from all parts of my house. However, it is so bulky with the three antennas sticking up that it becomes a focal point on the piece of furniture holding it. I'd like to Velcro it to the back of the furniture, but the antennas stick out so much that the furniture would have to be a 8 inches to a foot from the wall. I would recommend this as long as you don't mind that your tv area will look like NASA.

    Purchased this router because my son had bought the other i had. He moved out so had to get a new one. Since this router worked so well. I bought another one. My oldest son had to set up for me and it took him about 30 minutes to do so. Would have taken me longer if I did it my self. If you want a good router try this one to start with.

    Plugged it in and it showed me the page where it needed the numbers. Filled the numbers in the slots and it came to life! Quickly recognized all my hard wired devices and then the wireless devices also connected without problems. I'm happy with my NETGEAR - AC1750 router. Great performance for a low end router! It did everything that I needed. Thanks Best Buy

    Great signal strength and good speeds once it was setup, but it started to cut out every week and I had to reset it, even for devices that were hardwired into it, it also took awhile to setup and didn't like connecting to my phone at first (pixel 3 xl)

    I must say I was a little worried having never setup a router before. My worry was for nothing. The Nighthawk app made it incredibly easy. I would say I was completed with the process in less than 15 minutes. I can now monitor my children's usage and even block content with ease. I would recommend this router to anyone who may be in the market.

    WOW! what a difference a new router makes. I am so glad that I got this router! My old router was ok but was very annoying to have to keep resetting the old router-usually in the middle of a movie. I keep several devices on my home network at the same time and this wifi router has really improved my wifi experience in streaming, phone, etc

    I have owned this router for a number of months at this point, and my goodness, I'm am infuriated. Let me note, when it was functional and working properly, this router was 4.5 Star worthy. However, after their firmware debacle that left it open to remote hackers (Google that), and factory resetting it to account for that issue, it has been nothing but a giant headache. This review is coming after a few months of the old off/on treatment ever few weeks, when today, 1/5/19, even with the internet signal light illuminated, both the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz lights are off. Tried the off/on 3 times to no avail. I am sure there is a fix, but I frankly don't care. This was a near 5 Star product as I said until all of these issues arose, and at the price point I paid, thinking this would be a quality router that would last more than a year, I am very, very disappointed.

    Very pleased with this router. Upgraded from an older time capsule/router combo. Greatly increased our speed and provided two signals, one for 5g and one for not, which can be used for guest, etc. Also, has a nice auto cue security feature which allows me to instantly approve friends and auto share password vs. them having to manual type it in. No complaints.
