Customer Ratings & Reviews

Easy to install and has worked flawlessly since we purchased it. Currently using with Xfinity and it provides faster internet then we ever had with a Xfinity leased box.

This a great modem/router combo. Set up was easy, except the part where they don't tell you that upon first initialization that it'll take approximately 1hr for it to recognize any kind of signal from your cable company. Once that hour has gone by, it works great!! Just don't try to do it before trying to go to bed like I did & stay up waaaaay past your bedtime to make sure it worked properly. Lol. Hope this review helps out some

I needed to upgrade an old cable modem and apple wireless router. The set up on this was extremely easy. I went from speeds that were half of what I was paying for from my ISP to speeds that are now at, or exceed, my contracted service speeds. Very happy with the investment. The dual band allows older devices to still connect wirelessly on the 2G and my newer devices connect on the 5G. I would recommend to anyone who's system is running on older, slower equipment. I can be on Zoom calls while both my sons are on line gaming and not have any buffer or lag issues.

I purchased a Motorola Arris Model SBG6580 SURFboard Modem &Wi-Fi Router earlier this year. The N300 device did not perform well for us. The speed deteriorated significantly at my smart tv in the next room. We were encountering buffering when trying to stream movies. I went to Best Buy and discussed the issue with a knowledgeable sales associate. He recommended the NETGEAR Nighthawk AC1900. We are very pleased with the performance of this device. It meets all of our streaming and Wi-Fi needs. The speed and signal strength remain strong throughout our home.

At nearly a 1GBB/S its EASY to set up and use. Once in the main router information and settings web page, it's real easy to set up for family use and requires little tweaking for the average user. NOTE: My only problem involved getting to that EASY interface as other installed Internet Security, browser and AV/Malware programs thought my local network was INSECURE or UNSAFE (weird) . There are two choices, either turn off your AV (Not recommended) or White List (AKA: Allowed websites) your private domain (Usually 192.168.0.1 to 192.168.0.200, as well as http://www.routerlogin.net and http://www.routerlogin.com (both are local). ENJOY!!!!!!

This is actually the second purchase of this item, kind of. After purchasing the first time I set up my nighthawk quickly and easily and was off and running. Unfortunately some 10 days later or so I moved some furniture around and accidentally broke a prong on the power cord and was suddenly without an internet connection. After talking to Netgear and Best Buy they allowed me to exchange the nighthawk for a new one and was able to up and running once again. The nighthawk works great even running 3 TVs, multiple phones, PS4, and a few other items!

DO NOT RENT XFINITY MODEM FOR 10 EACH MONTH. DO NO PAY 99 DOLLARS FOR INSTALLATION. What you need to go is buy this modem from best buy and active it in any Xfinity Store. Speed - Fast. Gigabit ports. 802.11ac support. Setup - Easy setup with Comcast/Xfinity. No calls to make. Simply go to their activation site and wait 5-10 minutes. After one year, you pay 12*10+99=219, but the modem is still not yours if you rent. however you pay one time in best buy, the modem is yours and even though you plan to change to ATT, you can still use this modem.

I switched from renting Comcast's modem and brought my own.. not only do I save money each month my speed seems like it triples virtually no lag on pag loads and the no buffering... Great Modem

Easy set up and seems to be working well. I’ve only owned it for about a month now.

Best Router. loved it. Good internet connection. Does not break. You cannot compare with other Routers. Netgear is best overall.

Great upgrade for our house’s Wi-Fi coverage and speed. Super fast and reliable connection and coverage that makes streaming tv shows and playing video games enjoyable.

Love the customization options with the nighthawk app and online account! Perfect for my needs; in fact, probably a little overkill. I have 500 mbps download and 50 mbps upload and covers my entire apartment (900 sqft). Definitely beats renting a router from an ISP.

Great speeds, and better range than my previous router/modem combo. Setup was pretty easy, and allows me to link my printer to print wirelessly.

the best router I ever used. It has the bandwidth to make your gaming dreams come true. It was easy to setup and extremely fast and reliable.

Works great. bought it because the old modem and router combo I had didn’t support the amount of internet I was paying for. This product was just what I needed

Very good modem. It does its Job well. I haven't noticed any problems or drops in connectivity. Nice strong signal throughout my 2 story 1300sqft house. Even outside in my driveway

Easy setup right out of the box, hardest part was calling the cable company to add the new modem to their network. Been working fine, better speed no more buffering.

Great value and works excellently! Had to replace my old Nighthawk from 2017, this did the trick! Woof had been struggling for a while, frequently cutting in and out a few times a day. Now it doesn’t, and everything runs smoother than it used to. Would definitely recommend.

Excellent device. Easy setup, and it runs really well. A very big improvement over my former combo modem/router, both in speed and reliability.

Recently moved and signed up for Cox Cable. They provide media content, internet and phone service. The cable ready, modem/router unit they provided gave only 15-25 Mbps speeds for a line contracted to provide 50 Mbps. At least once a day, I would have to reset the modem. After 2 visits by Cox representatives, I decided to return the Cox modem/router. Installation of the Nighthawk was very simple to do. Since replacing the Cox devise, I have consistently gotten over 50 Mbps with speeds hitting 65 mbs. In almost 2 months, I have not had to restart it once. Range seems very good with good signal strength through out our 2000 sq ft condo and into the yard.
