Customer Ratings & Reviews

Works great and easy to set up! Would recommend!!!

This is actually the second purchase of this item, kind of. After purchasing the first time I set up my nighthawk quickly and easily and was off and running. Unfortunately some 10 days later or so I moved some furniture around and accidentally broke a prong on the power cord and was suddenly without an internet connection. After talking to Netgear and Best Buy they allowed me to exchange the nighthawk for a new one and was able to up and running once again. The nighthawk works great even running 3 TVs, multiple phones, PS4, and a few other items!

THe instructions for the modem leave something top be desired as they pertain to working with Xfinity as the ISP. However, the customer service at Netgear was responsive and competent and actually followed up a few days later to make sure I was able to get the system to work properly. Download speed with an ethernet cable was excellent but connection via wifi is no where near the stated speed -even after Netgear helped me adjust the settings. My system is simple and the product is fine for that. Not sure how robust it is for a more comprehensive network

I needed a new router modem and this works great for me

Great speeds, and better range than my previous router/modem combo. Setup was pretty easy, and allows me to link my printer to print wirelessly.

the best router I ever used. It has the bandwidth to make your gaming dreams come true. It was easy to setup and extremely fast and reliable.

Easy setup right out of the box, hardest part was calling the cable company to add the new modem to their network. Been working fine, better speed no more buffering.

Excellent device. Easy setup, and it runs really well. A very big improvement over my former combo modem/router, both in speed and reliability.

Recently moved and signed up for Cox Cable. They provide media content, internet and phone service. The cable ready, modem/router unit they provided gave only 15-25 Mbps speeds for a line contracted to provide 50 Mbps. At least once a day, I would have to reset the modem. After 2 visits by Cox representatives, I decided to return the Cox modem/router. Installation of the Nighthawk was very simple to do. Since replacing the Cox devise, I have consistently gotten over 50 Mbps with speeds hitting 65 mbs. In almost 2 months, I have not had to restart it once. Range seems very good with good signal strength through out our 2000 sq ft condo and into the yard.

Easy to set up works great. I was very happy that it was also on sale would definitely recommend

I wish that I'd bought this sooner! I was renting the Comcast router, and every time I tried to stream something, it either wouldn't load or kept stopping and buffering, making it unwatchable. This router is ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! I can stream anything. And watch it with no annoying buffering, lagging, or stopping. My only regret is that I didn't purchase it sooner. If I could give it 10 stars, I would! Don't hesitate to buy this if you are experiencing the same problems that I was. I can't even begin to tell you how happy I am with this purchase!

Great router works awesome with Comcast. I’m getting over 600mbs with this thing. It’s powering 15 devices at my house and no issues.

I'm a Spectrum customer at time of writing. I prefer having choice and control over my networking hardware - I'm picky, I'm quite technically able, and I hate having things hidden because of OEM or ISP restrictions. Setup on this was dead simple - the only thing that made it take any time was a little glitch with the activation page for spextrum on first logon, which was a Spectrum issue, not a modem issue. Performance so far has been great, with no complaints about coverage in a 2br apartment.

This was an upgrade from my older netgear wifi router. Easy setup and noticeable difference on performance, no more buffering while multiple devices connected.

I was looking at purchasing a modem for use with Xfinity's 150 mbps network and wanted to maximize the speed I would get out of my wireless connection since I am a heavy consumer of streamed data. I read a few reviews and decided on this model, due to the speed and ability to cover my entire house. This modem was an excellent choice. I was thoroughly impressed once I set it up, all my devices connected to the 5ghz connection are actually exceeding the advertised Comcast speeds regularly pulling down 160-180 mbps. I have the router installed in my office loft on the second floor and am able to get a constant connection in my basement and outside without any issues.

Have been having connection problems with Comcast/Xfinity and although the problem has always been due to the service provider, I decided to acquire a modem/Wi-Fi/router that has more than just one channel/greater operating range. This item has worked quite well and provides greater display of features.

Very easy to setup. Offers 4 wired access lines as well as two WiFi channels. I get the speeds I pay for and have experienced no technical issues thus far

You get what you pay for. And in this case it is good. Easy set up, and works perfect. Has it for a month now and would not take it back or trade for anythung. Totally worth the price.

There is only one room in my house that doesn't get as good of reception. Other than that, the signal is strong all around. This router/modem works with Comcast Xfinity Internet service, so you can install this, register the Netgear router over the phone with Comcast Xfinity and complete the setup. Send back the Comcast router and you're now saving the equipment rental fee. Keep this for a year and you'll almost make your money back, keep it for two years and you will be making money by saving the $10+ /month rental fee.

This router provide a strong and stable signal for streaming video and game. Also the range is wide. It is good router and easy to setup with internet provider
