    Geek Squad solved an on-going problem with my WiFi. Part of the solution was using this Nighthawk router instead of the modem-router I had purchased and could not install. The Nighthawk router installed easily and functions flawlessly. My WiFi coverage has improved greatly.

    I have had this bad boy for about a month now and although I haven't been able to put it to a full test, I love it. I've had service issues that has caused it to not be fully tested out for almost as long as I have had it. The three days I have used it, it has been great. I love that it is a single unit (my first) and that I don't have so much junking up my desk. I would recommend it.

    This router has a great range and 2 different connections so the small stuff doesn't bog down the higher speeds. Great router would recommend getting it.

    I had an old router but was not getting good connections on my Roku. I decided to upgrade and bit and have been very pleased. First it was super simple to set up which made me very happy. And my connection has improved greatly.

    I bought this router so I wouldn't have to rent my cable provider's one anymore. I have saved a lot of money buying this one and the quality is so much better too. I haven't had any issues! I'm very happy with this purchase!

    We had been using a separate modem and router for a long time and just got tired of all the problems. Went with this unit a few months ago and it really is awesome. Better service all over the house and if something happens you only have to trouble shoot one device.

    Where I used to live I was constantly getting kicked off the internet. Not sure if it was the provider or the modem/router or both...So far with the Nighthawk I have had zero issues. My streaming is fast, and having the dual band is really cool. I am a happy customer.
