My old router was as slow as a slug. I happy to be on the next century. We have had for three months with no crashes or problems. It was easy to set up.

Replaced last modem/router, also Netgear, with this because it would buffer too much when streaming videos on tv. This one, which allows for more d/l speed as well as 5g, has been much better and fewer, if any, buffering issues. My only issue (if you want to call it that) was getting it setup with Comcast. I had to contact Netgear first and we had to do a factory reset, but that only took about 10 mins or so which included setting up with Comcast connection (which the Netgear tech even assisted with). This was pretty easy to do. Then he even made sure I knew how to change WIFI name and also the default password if I wished.

Reaches where I need it. I have Nighthawk in bedroom on the floor and it has to go through 4 walls or the open hallway (radio waves) to get to kitchen ( about 35' away) where I use my cell or lap tab. Once in a while I have to lift my lap tap (surface pro 3) above my head sitting down to catch connection. It also works with smart tv (52' away) but it pauses movie sometimes. Lap tab dosn't work well in tv room cell works fine in tv room. Centralizing Nighthawk would be better.

I bought this modem/router in Arkansas, in anticipation of a move to Texas. I had an account with TWC waiting to be activated in Texas; this machine has the TWC logo on the box. I was assured by the BB employee that it would be compatible, and sure enough, the installer had no problems connecting my equipment to TWC's network. This M/R saves me $120 per year, so it's well worth its retail cost.

Was having trouble streaming to our TV. I own my modem/router as I see no need in paying rent for years after I could have just paid for upfront. Install and set up was real easy. I have Comcast as my internet provider and there was a separate set up process that took about 10 minutes and was up and running. Cannot speak to other providers. Works great and signal strength is vastly improved from the older equipment.

Great router & also efficient! Purchased this one to replace one i had since 2019 that had become outdated - has greatly improved the wifi in our house! Very easy to setup as well

We bought this to avoid the rental fee of a modem/router from Xfinity, and it was a good purchase. I have noticed a faster connection through my phone, but it's my son who needed this for gaming, and he's pleased overall. We did have to contact Comcast to get this set up - it's not a simple plug-and-go situation. And at first it didn't connect. But troubleshooting solved the problem and we haven't had any issues in the month we've had it.
