    We were facing connectivity issues with our old linksys router and somehow I decided to change the router. After the initial research, we choose this one that suits houses upto 1700 sft. We completely love it. Def a buy

    Probably one of the best routers I have ever had the pleasure of installing. This was used to cover large amount of property. A local firehouse here in Virginia needed more coverage than their current router was covering. Installed this and alleviated the need for range extenders etc

    Wireless Router from my tv provide wasn’t cutting it since everyone is either working from home or remote learning for the kids. Was able to use my rewards and purchase this item for a deal. After setup, no more complaints about slow connection.

    Recently bought this router because of internet connection problems within my house, however it turned out that the problem was with the cable modem instead of my old Netgear router. Experience with the new AC1750 router has been good thus far, especially because of the greater range of the signal.

    My old wifi (N) receiver died and I needed a new one quick. After stopping in the store, Chris helped me pick this one, saying it was reliable and fast. He was SO RIGHT! Set-up was easy and done in less than 10 minutes.

    The router added speed and security to my home network. Transferring large multimedia files wireless is very fast now. Also, my buffering problems when streaming movies have been greatly reduced. Lastly, it enables me to schedule regular backups to a shared external hard drive.

    Great so far. Easy set up. Beware on/off radio switch is on top right--looks like a light but is both light and button! Best Buy price matched Walmart so do your homework and enjoy Best Buy superior customer service.

    I needed to buy a new router because my cable company decided not to repair their routers that we leased from them! This router fit my needs and I have not had any problems! It was also easy to install and the directions were easy to read and understand!!!

    If getting slow speeds - Rollback back firmware

    I bought this router to upgrade from a combo modem/router I had. The setup was very easy, but I noticed I was not getting my advertised speeds from my ISP (which isn't completely unheard of). After pulling my hair out trying to figure out why I was getting about half the speed of my ISP (buying 250mb down and only getting 150mb at most, on both wifi and directly connected to the router), I found out that the newer firmware was somehow bogging down the speeds you can get. I'm currently on firmware v1.0.4.198, and have found many people online with the same issue with newer firmware. I plugged my computer directly to my modem and instantly got the max speed. The solution was to rollback the firmware to v1.0.3.66, which seemed to fix it for a lot of people with not only this router but other Netgear routers as well. The issue with rolling back your firmware is you do not have the latest security update. So really this is only a solution if you have an older Netgear router and absolutely do not want to purchase a new router. Because I recently purchased this router, I will be returning it and avoiding Netgear.

    So far, so good. Everything plugged in well. Easy to fire up. 2.5 and 5.0 both working well. Don't forget to label each WIFI. I have a network printer and I forgot to label them on startup and I had to go back and label them, so I could sync the wifi printer.
