Customer Ratings & Reviews

This router replaced a very old one. That being said it was not hard to see the improvement in signal. No dropped signal and our data speed was greatly increased.

I had an old router and DSL modem and finally decided to upgrade my router. I placed the modem in bridge mode and used this router to handle the router duties only. It vastly improved my streaming media experience with no more buffering , basically. I think I had grown my home network to the point where the old router could not efficiently control everything. But, I'm very satisfied with the Netgear router performance and the only thing I wish it had was a different QOS system where you could physically alter the bandwidth control for wireless devices. It does have a good QOS, but doesn't have the flexibility of some other designs. But for the price this router does its job very well.

nice router! Its compatibility with past protocols makes it even better

Router instructions easy to follow, though appropriate computer screen failed to appear. No customer service number, only website. Was a bit challenging to install, but has solved some technology issues we were facing. Overall, very satisfied.

Good wi-fi range,receiving strong signal even outside the house. had to use the nighthawk app to setup. Was told i could use the genie,but that didn't work with this router.

This is an awesome router. Allows me to reach my maximum speeds from my CenturyLink fiber optic. Even gave me the ability to bypass the modem with a little tweaking of the settings. Got this on sale as well, recommend fully!!

This item was purchased because I was unable to connect my laptop to the modem. On the suggestion of the sales associate, he felt this would be the best option for the functions needed. It hasn't disappointed us.

This router is great and can get what I need for what I want to use it for

Internet works smooth the shape of the unit is really cool

I keep replacing routers every couple of years. I make the mistake of buying cheap ones. They eventually get to the point where they have to be unplugged and reset regularly. So far this one has been reliable. I like the fact that it has two separate wifi signals.

Omar at the Springfield Store was very helpful. He recommended this product and it works beautifully. In a three level townhouse it is important to get a signal on each floor and this product does the job.

Bought this when I exchanged a Linksys router that ended up not being compatible with my internet provider. Set this one up in 20 minutes and only had to reboot one time since I bought it. The app is handy, the range is great, and I would recommend this router.

I bought this router to replace my eight year old Apple Time Capsule and it has far exceeded my expectations. I plugged in an external hard drive into the USB3 port and I can use that drive to back up my MacBook wirelessly but I found that I can set up my own DNS name to access my personal server. I also feel like my internet connection is better, probably thanks the BeamForming feature. I did make one amateur mistake when setting this up with my MacBook. I joined both the 5Ghz and the 2.4Ghz frequency of my WiFi network and that seemed to cause problems with my Time Machine with an error that the backup file was already in use. Once I removed my machine from one of the frequencies, the issue resolved itself and I never received the error again. I highly recommend this router.

I've had this for a bit, haven't noticed too many issues. Has a long startup time after a reset, but otherwise great router. nice app if you're into that, if not well that sucks.

I have a internet provider who always seems to cut out. Believe it or not this router solved a lot of issues. Had modem already and then added router. Especially good router. No more issues.

This is a great Wi-Fi router handles all of my needs thanks

It’s a very good router, just a little technical to set up.

I have owned this router for about 2 months now and it has been flawless. The setup went smoothly using the software provided. Since switching to this router my network speed has increased by 30% over my previous ( N series ) router.

This took just minutes to set up and works as it states.

Absolute recommend all the way. Look no further. Like yourself i owned many routers over the years. Nighthawk beats them all by (fill in whatever you can imagine) You will set it, and completely forget you own a router (except for times of slow comcast speeds and outages). I love it. Amount of throughput going through it is astounding me at times. I have many devices plus a server and nothing gets it down. No buffering like with others. Truly amazing By far THE BEST ROUTER I HAVE EVER OWNED (PERIOD) Not sure how i got my nickname to be too expensive- i dont think that at all. Just the right price, IN FACT I GOT MY 2ND ONE ON SALE
