    I recently purchased the Netgear - Nighthawk Dual-Band AC1900 Router as it came highly recommended. It was easy to set up and provides a great signal throughout the house (3 stories, 4,000 sq ft.). Currently we have 2 computers, 1 TV, and several phones connected to the WiFi signal - all working properly.

    This dual router/modem was a life saver! Our internet kept dropping all the time and it was almost impossible to get any work done or even enjoy a movie without the connection dropping. We went to best buy and bought ourselves this modem. We haven't had a connection issue ever since.

    Not much of a Netgear person but decided to give it a try. Wow! This product not only exceeded my expectations but went the extra distance. No more buffering and no more weak spots in my house. Makes me reconsider the NETGEAR name brand. Would recommend to anyone looking for a great cable modem/router.

    I bought a house with nearly 1000 sq ft up stairs and down stairs. I bought the WiFi extender because I thought the Nighthawk would have trouble with the signal down stairs. Not so! I returned the extender and the Netgear router is fine for the whole house.

    I bought this to replace my 5 year old Motorola modem. After running a separate modem, wifi & router, I decided to simplify my network and clean up the network cable clutter. After doing research on multiple units I decided on this one and I was not disappointed. The wifi signal strength is incredibly good even though multiple walls and different floors of my home. The options available for customizing your network are abundant and powerful. I would highly recommend this product!

    This router replaced my Comcast rented box. It's been the best change we've had since using cable modems. It took a little bit of time on chat to get setup with Comcast but the switch out required little effort on our end, just some server switches on the Comcast side.

    Once we realized we needed a router that wasn’t for modem use this one has been working great with no issues as of yet. Our apartment complex has its own internet and that’s why we had to make sure we chose a router that didn’t say modem in it.

    Bought this to replace the Spectrum router with which I would lose the 2ghz signal in my master bedroom even though it's not that far. But now the 5ghz signal is fully connected in all areas in the room. If it helps for your purchase my home is 1500-1600 Sq ft, and it is definitely an upgrade

    We bought this to replace the comcast gateway that we were renting, and it works wonderfully. reaches farther than the gateway in our house. The only issue i have is that the gateway came with an app to help with parental locks and with this one you have to pay a monthly subscription.

    switched internet service provider and got higher bandwidth... I went from 100 MB to 200 MB. When plugged into the unit, the spreed test results has me going beyond 200 mb. On wifi, I was getting around 72 mb on average when I have line of sight. The reason why I didn't give it 5 stars is the range is closer to my old unit even though on paper and by other's review, they have extended range. Looks like I may invest in an extender in the future.
