Customer Ratings & Reviews

It's easy to hook up but need to install the Nighthawk App from App Stores. Easy step by step instructions. I made it work in half an hour. It's light and does not take that much space. It's easy to restart for best performance. I am glad Best Buy Salesman recommended it. Thank You Best Buy!!!

We had an outdated Netgear router with a remote expander. With 6 people in the family using many devices, it was time for an upgrade. After talking to the sales associate, We went with this one. what a difference!! No more lagging and much faster speed. Would recommend this product to anyone.

Excellent coverage and speed, and budget friendly.

Good range at a decent value. The system is being used in a smart house and at times has 10 Wi-Fi devices connected without any issues. Easy set up with a smart phone is another plus. One thing that NETGEAR needs to work on is dimming the white lights on the unit as it illuminates a dark room.

Streaming 6 devices at the same time with no issues. I like this router slot after my last one gave out after 3 years of use

This router has stronger signals for downstairs but didn't take care of the upstairs. I just installed the netgear extender for upstairs and all is good now.

I purchased this router for my daughter who is in college. She has 3 roommates and they have 11 devices all sharing this router! So far she tells me they have had no issues with the router at all. TV's, computers, phones and gaming have all worked without any problems. Also, the item was on sale so I thought is was a great bargain!

My old router died and I was fearful about what it would take to install a new one. I wanted to just find the exact duplicate router to make it easy. When I found out that it was no longer available, I bought this NETGEAR router and was pleasantly surprised with the ease of installation and the results - a faster, more powerful router.

I purchased this router as a replacement for a 5 year old DLlink. So far, it has performed as advertised, I have experienced no issues with it.

This is a great unit. Plugged a USB 3.0 4TB WD hard drive into it, and set up all the passwords. Unit performs well, and has not needed rebooting at all. 2.4 Ghz band is usable two houses away from a smart phone, while 5 Ghz band is shorter range, but much faster. Easily streams 4K video to a Fire TV and Roku.

My old router finally died. The tech at Best Buy indicated this would be a great replacement and more than sufficient to take care of my needs.

The quality of the wireless connectivity is very good. It easily handles all of my family's devises. I particularly like the NetGear app for my Android phone.

I've been very happy with this Netgear router - it was a breeze to set up connected to my Spectrum cable modem. Wi-Fi coverage is good, but I've had to put in at least one addition Wi-Fi access point since some areas of my house don't get a great signal. Would definitely buy again.

I constant had trouble with 3 models of Linksys routers always having to restart/reset. Well no more I had this for 30 days and not a single problem. Once you find the right channels necessary compatible with your devices and set up with no interference for your wifi, it's all perfect. Netgear team will help you with proper setup and they are fast!

Essential after COVID, to get better coverage for our whole house. Have it set up as an extender. There is a limit to the bandwidth (doesn't carry all our ATT bandwidth we have on our ATT router) but never have trouble with multiple devices, fast on 5G.

Great , fast ' long range, easy to programmer, good price

I needed a wireless router that took advantage of the internet speeds I'm paying for. This hit the spot. We have at any one time from 5 to 10 devices pulling wireless internet from this router and not only has it drastically increased the speed of my internet but we've had much fewer issues with lag. I would recommend this over and over again.

Upon getting router home, it was so easy to set up and once set up with the easy Genie app my speed and use of wireless is much better.

No issues at all so far. I have 2 consoles, 2 laptops and my smart tv hooked up along with 4 phones. Never had a lag issue

First router to purchase. Router is very easy to set up, good response on data transfer through out entire home and even entire property of 4 acres. Very good at streaming not a bunch of buffering. Had 18 mobile devices connected and did not seem to slow it down. Very pleased with this (my) selection, took back one that store clerk advised.
