    Tgis modem/router looks sleek and so far has been working fantastic. Although along with getting this product I changed my internet provider. I didn't want to pay a monthy fee for equipment that I was forced to invest in. I bought my product off of research and changed my service. I'm a happy customer now.

    This is an amazing router. I have about 20 connected devices in my home. This handles them all flawlessly. My ISP is Comcast and I pay for the blast service (150mbps) I get a bit faster speeds with this modem/router. I also get to eliminate the rental fee yay!

    This modem/router has worked pretty well so far. I purchased it to avoid paying rental fees and I'm very happy with it at this point. Our internet connection drops out every so often but I think it's the provider, not the modem. I can't figure out how to pause my kids' devices when they're naughty but it's not a big deal, I just take away their gadgets. :)

    This unit integrates with my internet service (Xfinity). Works excellent in 2.4 but the 5.0 has a short range of 20-30 ft before starting to loose strength he of signal. My home has cement walls and stucco so that could be part of the issue. Anyway, still a very good product as a combo modem/router product at a very good price.

    So I purchased this to replace and older Motorola model hoping to improve some performance issues I was having. The range on this unit was significantly better i was able to get a good signal throughout my house, it has alot more options and parental controls. The bad part of it is that you have to reset modem every few days in order to be able to log into the router and reset the internet speed as it's reduced. Also the time is off and there's no way to change it to the correct time. Finally Netgear customer service is horribly good luck getting ahold of them to try and resolve anything If Netgear is able to resolve these issues it would be a great product.

    This router made a big difference in my internet speed. It did exactly what I needed to speed up my computer. I have Google Home, Alexa, two computers, two Ipads and two cell phones and needed the additional bandwidth provided by this router.

    Recently upgraded to this cable modem/router after having a Motorola Gateway for the past 5 years and I'm glad I did! Router speed is ridiculously fast and very rarely does the connection get dropped nowadays. Styling is also a plus and features plenty of ventilation for cooling the hardware.

    It handles well with multiple streaming devices going, also keeps up with all of the demands of my work laptop and vpn. The range is decent, I had thought it would reach farther than my prior router/modem, but it’s about the same. I’m pretty sure it’s my house lol

    We were looking for a router that was to replace an existing router when we changed internet carriers. We were met by a Best Buy rep who immediately offered assistance. He recommended the Netgear router based on our expected requirements. We have had the router for approximately three wheels and it has performed outstanding.

    Best AC Router/Modem Combo on the Market

    If you have a decent-sized home and are concerned about Wireless coverage, this will give you the largest footprint of any all-in-one Router/Modem on the market today with the highest speeds currently available. If you want to stop paying your Cable company to "rent" your inferior modem, this is the BEST option IMHO. :)

    I love the item! It has a very gorgeous design, and very easy to to set up, I just had to download the app and the xfinity app. I was surprise to see that it has 2 different network. One for general use and one for faster network. Very happy.

    This is a great router and pretty easy to set up. It IS compatible with Xfinity and Comcast but is not compatible with Comcast Home Security (which i have). Unfortunately i learned that the hard way and had to get a small Independent secured router to connect to my home security after the fact. Thanks to Josh Fritz i have to go out on the icy roads to restock my cookie jar. Friggen Frog.

    We had been renting from cable provider and finally decided to take the bull by the horns! So far so glad we did! Modem and router in one and speed tests may be a little better? A solid purchase.

    This is an excellent router modem. It is 24 x 8 bonded rather than 8 x 4 bonded. It is much faster and has much better bandwidth than my previous router modem. Plus, it includes a personal FTP site.
