    The item does not perform as mentioned in the pre-purchase details. Very unreliable and needs pairing with main router very often.

    Best of the best...... for now

    I purchased the Nighthawk AC3200 and decided to get this as an extender. my signal downstairs doubled and im very happy with both Nighthawks. however, as I mentioned in my review on the AC3200, the specs on this router is also over kill. But the bright side is, I don't have to worry about it for some time. one , when you go into the setting, you have to create an account. I don't see the need for me to give my email address since I paid for this (spam mail....#. to avoid this, you can just make up a email address #doesn't need to be active) and create an account. over all, best of the best for now. until something better comes in a few months........
