    My 2 boys are into gaming and so far I have not heard any complaints from them. On top of them using their gaming computers, there is 4 of us using wifi on our mobile phones as well as tv streaming. So far, so good.

    I recently changed from CenturyLink to spark light internet, and this modem really does the trick. The Wi-Fi is fantastic speeds are blindingly quick.

    Works great and the support setting it up via contacts / links set up by Net Gear was VERY good. As usual, I can count on Best Buy to have a great selection of related quality products.

    I love it when something technological works. I purchased the Netgear Nighthawk Router & Modem to replace my cable service modem/router. Installation was flawless and worked from the git go. The WiFi signal was stronger throughout the house as well.

    and performing very well with one of the finest UI's Ive seen for the portals. Reboot times are normal and doesnt lose IP. Surprisingly weak, however, is its wireless strength in my structure. I have to get a booster to cover my house, where my last DOCSIS 2.0 covered everything at full strength. Also love the abilities to have different things on different bandwidths.

    After having problems streaming Netflix on our old rotor it is a treat to have the new Nighthawk give us uninterrupted TV and Netflix each evening. And it is TWC compatible so we are saving $8 each month in fees.

    So Far So Good. I've heard problems people had about it. I was unsure if I should buy it. Bought It anyways since I needed a modem/router. WalMart had it cheaper 2 weeks later but couldn't return it since it passed 7 days or price match it at least. Anyways 4 months in still going good.

    We have been having major issues with our internet/WiFi from Xfinity and the Netgear Nighthawk fixed us right up! We happily gave Xfinity back their modem that was junk! We haven’t had any internet issues since!

    The modem works fine now but not at the beginning. Having to go through hoops with Nightgear to get it active, was a pain. I will remember this and will check out other options if I have to replace.

    This replaced 2 pcs of equip that were slow and dropped connection all the time. I do mean ALL the time. We would have extremely sporadic internet. Since getting netgear nighthawk router/modem combo, we have not lost connection once and the speed is great.
