    Changed my service from ATT to Spectrum. They included a modem with the service. My web pages were lagging, taking anywhere from 1-30 seconds to load after I clicked on them. I would do a speed test and got the rated speed, but it was very inconsistent. I was also getting dropped connections. I went to Best Buy and picked up this Netgear Nighthawk AC1900 Router and installed it, set it up under my account with Spectrum and all of my problems went away. I have been using it for a couple weeks and It has been stable and the Wi-Fi connection has been great also. 220 Mbps to my phone(I have the 200Mbps plan). Very strong signal. I live in a 2 story and this router is in my basement. I have a good signal in all of the rooms upstairs as well as downstairs.

    The Netgear Nighthawk is a great purchase. Super fast and easy to hook up. I got tired of paying the cable company rent....I paid for that one many times over the 2 plus years we had it.

    I was limited on choices for pickup when my old router finally died. I paid more than I wanted too but when I plugged it in and got it running, it was the best purchase for my home. I would buy this again in a heartbeat.

    After "renting" a modem from Comcast for 5 years (60 months) at $10 per month - $600, I eliminated my land line, and got this one for $150. The set-up was simple, and its a much better modem / router than theirs. Better yet, it will pay for itself in less that a year and half.

    Been running this baby for a month now after trading my Mediacom loaner in... Easy to setup and no restarts needed to date! It is flexible and fully configurable. Great for gaming and handles downloads and streaming on multiple TVs. Absolutely would recommend you but this one!

    Took a little bit to set up as I have buckeye cable. but has been way faster than the Harris one's they provide. I went through 5 or 6 different one's this time I decided I wanted my own and couldn't have choose a better gateway.

    Recently went back to Comcast after having fios (no choice) and the brand new gateway they provided was terrible, nothing but problems. Installed this AC1900 gateway and all of the problems mysteriously disappeared. Imagine that!
