    One of the easier set ups you will have. This works just as good as my last router and extender put together. If your foot print of your house if under 2000 square feet this will do the job. Have two Xbox and one Switch all hooked up at same time and no issues. Phone application lets you control wifi with ease.

    4.5 of 5. Initial setup was cumbersome due to the app kept crashing. A good wifi 6 option. Connection has been consistently fast without any disconnects. It's used in a ~1000 sq. ft. apartment with nine devices continuously connected (three macbooks, three smart tv's, and three iphones). Nine devices are the minimum that are connected at any given time. Sometimes, there are more phones are connected at other times.

    This Router has many great features that I fiddle with from to time. I love the signal coverage it provides and the security software suit that can, through a subscription, shield my network from the constant assault of threat actors as they try to create havoc. With the app installed on a smart device, one can have effortless control and interaction with this Router to monitor traffic and adjust settings. A wired connection is always faster and more secure than its wireless counterpart, but wireless, at times, can be more convenient. I utilize both the wired and wireless functionality of this product. This Router even sends email logs of specific network traffic based on settings.

    The router was super easy to set up and its been performing vulnerability scans on connected devices which is helpful. It has also been alerting on attempted attacks and suspicious activity on the network.

    The router is easy to install, it performs well, and has actually increased the speed of my computer which had slowed down considerably over the past several years.

    I purchased this in 2023. It's not 2025 and it still amazing. I have issues with my internet providers router that they gave me. I replaced that with this NetGear Router and it works even better than the providers. I get signal strength throughout the entire upstairs and downstairs with this one.

    needed a new router in a pinch, found this AX1800 6G to be affordably priced. though in retrospect, probably should've spent a little more for additional range. it is spotty throughout the house unlike my previous router... may need to purchase an extender. But other than that, speed is very good.

    I had heard many complaints about Breezeline but I think it’s just their equipment! With this router combined with my CM1000v2 I get atleast 800/1000 mbps. Great connection. Plenty of Ethernet porting on the back. Super easy to set up. Sweet app to monitor and manage the equipment Price increase in comparison to other cheaper brands is worth it.

    Good router. Works with Go To Connect VOIP.

    Good router for medium sized home or business spaces. The setup is made a little bit more complicated by all of the hoops that netgear is making you jump through with the last couple of generations of their router software - which is kinda disappointing. It makes you yearn for the days when you could just connect the thing, go to the routers ip address and be up and running in a few minutes. The one huge benefit of this router is that it's technically not a nighthawk even though it looks and feels like one - and even though the documentation in the box has nighthawk written all over it. What that means is that is you have a list of blacklisted routers for something like say a VOIP rollout that requires the ability to disable SIP on the router, this one will work even if your blacklist says netgear nighthawk routers will not. I've done it a couple of times and this router is a great solution for go to connect VOIP in particular.

    Easy to set up, has the advanced functionality I was looking for as well. Old router didn't allow guest network, this one does. But above all - the ease of setting it up and then the clear GUI to set up the advanced settings make this an awesome router

    This is my second Netgear purchase. I definitely got my money worth so when I needed a new one why not go back with what I had excellent service from. We have a 4 bedroom home all with smart TV's and couple of computers. They are super easy to set up and get everything signed into!

    Nice, affordable Wi-Fi 6 router. Easy setup, don't recommend using the app though, it just complicates things it seems. Signal reaches across house even through several walls

    Was in a bind and bought this to meet our fiber internet requirements. Works well across around 5-10 devices. Satisfied, especially with price.
