    Works Great on Xfinity Internet Service

    This is now my main router as my old router was outdated based on Xfinity standards. This is running great for me. Now, if I could just get Xfinity to deliver standard quality service it would help. Some days are better than others.

    Wow ~ What A Difference

    I paid $90 a month for my local internet. It ran slow with bad reception. Couldn’t pick it up through multiple walls. Thought it may have been all the devises my family of six had on it. Describe my problem to the sales associate at Best Buy. He recommended the NETGEAR NIGHTHAWK ROUTER. It solved all my problems. The Best Buy Associate had said the router the cable company was renting me ran slower than the signal they were sending me. (He described it more on a technical scale but you get the idea) After installing my Wife and children were like WOW DAD! Now we pick up the WI~FI all over the house, through walls, out in our yard... and it’s super fast. Plus my internet bill dropped $10 a month since I don’t rent their slow router anymore. The Netgear router will pay for itself in less than two years.

    Got this to replace a provider supplied gateway that was having to be reset frequently. Since I’ve had this one, my service has run smoothly and quickly. Easy to set up and good quality modem and router.

    My mistake unfortunately. I misunderstood the specs on how fast it would be. I pay for 1gb through my provider but this won’t ever get much over 500. I average 300-400.

    I used this to replace a cable modem I was renting at $10 a month from Spectrum and also replace a separate WiFi modem that I had for several years that had just started to malfunction intermittently. I am extremely happy with my choice.

    Perfect. I now receive full 5g all over my 1700 sqft two story home with no dead spots. My home is a smart home with over 30 devices connected to the router. There’s no wireless lag. I love it

    I had endless problems and frustration with connectivity to my ISP. After replacing my existing modem with the NETGEAR Nighthawk, my connectivity is mostly uninterrupted and I have a much better/more reliable Internet experience.

    Installed this so I could return the modem/router to Spectrum. Tired of paying a rental fee. I stream Netflix, Vudu, and a fire stick. Laptop, two cell phones and a security system. No problem with signal at all. System is working very good.

    I’m not a gamer and don’t have a big house with extenders but this modem has been good and reliable. Had to get a new one because of a power surge in a storm so be sure to have it on a good surge protector! Also, I couldn’t tell you if any connection slowing was due to it or Comcast service cause I know nothing!

    I truly enjoyed the easy setup with the modem. I was tired of leasing modems and equipment from Comcast. I upgraded my internet speed and this Wifi Modem was a great purchase. I suggest anyone looking to replace their equipment to pick this product.

    Recently bought n few dats ago. Easy to install n configure, speed looks good so far. But the product heats up and makes hissing sound...Problem is not always but quite a few times in a day. Seems to me like a circuit issue.

    I bought this modem router a little over a month ago after I had problems with my previous router. This one is better than I expected. I stream Netflix, look at YouTube and WWE Network daily and I do not have issues with this product since I've connected it.
