    Reaches Everywhere

    I live in an old storefront with thick walls, and this router reaches every room in my apartment without a single drop in quality. Everywhere else I’ve lived, I’ve needed at least two routers—not anymore. This router is at max no matter where I am, and I love it.

    This router covers our whole house just fine, and has never lost signal. We replaced the old one because it had to be reset almost on a daily basis; the new one never does. Best part -- it cost less than then previous one!

    I'm enjoying my new router. So far I haven't had any problems and setup was easy once I found the QR Code that wasn't on the router but wound up being on the plastic bag that it was in when I opened the box. Partially my fought because I overlooked it and thought I could plug n play. Trust me you want the QR Code. The install was a breeze when I used the QR Code and all the devices in the house connected with no problems. I'm satisfied with the performance for the price. My last router was NETGEAR also and still worked but it was 10 or 12 years old and it still worked but the signal was really bad. The new one has a decent signal and I haven't had any drops so far.

    Easy installation By Barb C 12345 This Netgear router replaced an older router that was zapped during a storm. Instructions from Netgear made for an easy installation. Our other devices were recognized right away. Yay for something making life easier.

    Replacing my AC1600

    I replaced my AC1600 router after about 3 years of service when the internet connectivity failed completely. The new router took a couple of tries thru the software to get set up, but after the initial setup was complete, it has functioned very well. I get >200Mps throughout the 2400 ft^2 house using a Netgear CM600 modem. No drop outs. All devices are connecting fine. I am getting used to the Nighthawk router application on my phone, rather than at 192.168.1.1

    I was pleasantly suprised with the speed and conectivity when using this router. We have about 9 TVs with rokus plugged in so 18 devices alone with TVs that dosent include 2 gaming systems and 8+ smartphone and laptop devices. This router handles these like a champ. Extensivley covers our home even in the garage! Im very satasfied with my purchase.

    Reliable wifi is more important than ever with security cameras, home entertainment, etc. We have 23 devices to date and my older wifi mesh system required constant reboots and speeds weren't up to par in nodes. Wifi 6 allows much faster throughput with wifi 6 devices. I'm connecting in man cave and master bath at 470mbps with my iphone 13. Easy set up, great range, and reliability are strengths of this router. You can spend much more and get much less if you aren't careful. 4 Ethernet ports come in handy also. There is no substitute for some knowledge on how wifi needs to be set up depending on specific devices. It's always better to hardwire with Ethernet if possible but sometimes not possible depending on structure. It would be very difficult to get a better performing router at this price point, especially if you have compatible wifi 6 devices. I have a 400 mbps spectrum internet plan as an fyi. With my amplifi 3 station system I replaced I had slow speeds in areas I used mesh points and had to continuously reboot. I'm getting faster speeds and better reliability with this wifi 6 router. I had invested 300 in old system and got 3 years out of that system. This router is the best on market in my opinion (at this price) by today's standards. It also allows excellent expansion if needed. I would start with 1 and see if your content with performance. I think you will be pleasantly surprised. Range is also excellent with external antennas. Our home is 2200 square foot ranch and this does a great job inside and outside with my wifi 6 phone. Highly recommended

    So fast, easy to set up, and I love this router! I have great wifi all over the house, and so much better than my old router. I'm so glad I bought Netgear again. Price was very good too. A lot of value for the money. I always buy Netgear, it's a reliable, quality product.

    This router has been great for me. I have an older HP machine for work that needed a driver update to see the network otherwise smooth sailing since I bought it. I use with multiple devices including Apple Watch, iPad Pro, iPhone 12 Pro, Canon Pixma MX490 series, M1 MacBook Pro , Samsung 4k TV. Replaces an Asus router I bought in early 2017 that is no longer being updated and would disconnect at least 3x a day. Setup was super easy via an app called Nighthawk I just downloaded to my phone. Pretty good value for the price for my small apartment setup. Would recommend for someone wanting to get a more future-focused WiFi 6 router. There is so much congestion in my area (literally 29 other networks) that the built in 2.4Ghz router / antenna on my cable modem wouldn't allow me to fully capture the speed of Spectrum's internet service. Definitely recommend for anyone in a similar situation.

    Easy set-up using the app. Was up and running in less than an hour. Our teenage daughter definitely noticed an improvement in download speed. Pleasantly suprised to have a WiFi Guest connection. Don't recall seeing that feature. I probably just missed it. Works great. Does what its supposed to do.

    Worth every penny. I grew up with NETGEAR, and every product I bought was as reliable as the last. They never had given me any issues. In fact, if there were any issues, I know it was because of my ISP. This product is easy to use, secure, and has many features I never knew I would need, like Armor, which scans every newly connected device to make sure it is safe from anything malicious. Great product. And fast.
