    It Works

    This router was an upgrade from a similar router/modem from the same manufacturer. It worked fine. The router itself was easy to setup, but as always, a pain working with Spectrum Customer Service to activate it. The limitation was the speed of the internet service and not the router/modem, as speed tests showed an improvement. The only way to eliminate the problem was to switch to another internet provider. I'm so glad I did, as it's way faster, customer service is SO much more supportive and costs significantly less.

    So I recently purchased this combo to upgrade some equipment that was only a couple of years old. I was having an issue with my download speed not exceeding 90mbps and from what Comcast said I was capable of 200+ in my area. Once I installed this new combo, which was very simple and didn't take more than 10mins. I ran a speed test and was at 243mbps on a hard line devices and averaged near the same on 5GHz wireless. The 2.5GHz wireless averaged around 150mbps. My coverage is good as well but, my place is only around 1200sqft / one story.

    Very pleased. No buffering while streaming or internet connection issues. Wi-Fi modem router was purchased to free up space by replacing a separate NETGEAR Nighthawk router and a different modem brand. Have been a NETGEAR equipment owner for years and have no complaints with products or customer support. App makes setup/management a breeze.

    Our old router took a crap. We got this one and it works great. We normally have 4 phones, 2 game systems and 3 tvs hooked to it at all times. My some plays his xbox x on line all the time no lag. It also has controls to turn devices off when its bedtime.

    Bought this for personal home Wi-Fi router and very satisfied with my purchase. It works very well with my internet plan. It is dual band is very powerful helps it run in multiple devices at the same time which saves some money to buy the extension routers for you home as this one would be enough. Also, definitely a decent price for the quality of the product compare to other stores.

    We've had the router for about 2 weeks now and so far so good. It's actually has a stronger signal than the one from the Wave broadband. Easy to set up and I did have to call my cable company, the instructions lead you to think you can do all on your own but in this case with Wave I had call them for the final connection. It's working great and I think it is well worth the money!

    The sales person recommended this modem/router combination for my home - 3 floors plus basement and 13 devices (cell phones plus computer/ipads) that could access the internet. So far it's been working great. I ordered the 60 Mbps from Xfinity and with this modem/router have been able to achieve 55.5 Mbps in actual use. The standard band (58) has more range than the other band (5g) but the 5g band is better for cell phones.

    I love this. My computer is connected via Ethernet so I didn't see an increase in speed, but my son uses the wireless connection on his gaming machine and this is much faster for him than the Comcast provided gateway we had. The increased range is what I love - I haven't tested it's limits but it keeps surprising me - husband was taking pics with on his phone out in the field and I saw them all before he could walk back to the house - straight to a shared dropbox folder.

    It's a great router, fits the needs of a family of 6 with every device connected, as well as guests. I have hardly any issues with it, until about 2 years later, then we had to replace it. Not bad really with all the abuse we put it through, like, using the wifi 20 hours out of the day. We use smart devices all over our house as well as gaming computers running, this is a tank of a router.

    Bought this to save money on the equipment rental charge I get from my internet provider. Easiest modem/router I have ever setup in my life. I’ve tested my up/download speeds and it has gone up ever since I installed this item. I haven’t had any issues or family members complain about WiFi speeds lacking or range issues. I can be out in my shed and still get 3 WiFi bars on both my phone or laptop. Don’t hesitate to buy this.

    I've owned this product for almost a month and have had an amazing experience ever since. I was not getting near the speeds I was supposed to be so I bought this modem/router. It improved my streaming and gaming speeds tremendously. Finally I am getting the speeds that I've been paying my internet provider for these past months. Setup was simple and quick! I bought this when it was on sale so I got kind of lucky.

    My old wireless gateway went out, so I went to the store to find a replacement. We have added so many devices that we needed an upgrade. This is a perfect fit. The range is fantastic and all of our devices are full signal and lightning speed. The service at the store was exceptional. The man that helped me was very good and answered all of my questions. I don't know how good the price was, but I am so pleased with the purchase, that I feel I got a really good deal.

    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.

    Bought this when switching from DSL to Cable internet to avoid Comcast monthly rental fee. While this modem is more than Comcast provides as far as lanes, the WIFI range is awesome. Previous DSL modem had to have a range extender. This modem sits in the basement and covers the entire house and some of our yard.
