    just bought it today and the setup was easy, had to call my internet provider to setup on their end,netgear website is easy to use and wifi ssid and password setup is a breeze haven't tried out the parental control yet but will do when i have the time. the price was $199.99 and i didn't know it was on sale and was $16.00 discounted. So far NETGEAR - Nighthawk Dual-Band AC1900 Router been working very good, by the way i have spectrum internet 100mbps and with this Netgear Nighthawk router I did 2 test 1 test is with my ether net wire and it tested at 100mbps and 2nd test was with my wifi adapter which is the N network and it also tested at 100mbps. So yes this NETGEAR - Nighthawk Dual-Band AC1900 Router is worth the money, but it's not compatible with certain internet provider.

    First off , easy to use . Easy to set up . You can control EVERYTHING with this router/modem combo . You can set websites you don’t want used , block IP addresses you don’t want on you network , toggle 2.4 & 5 ghz on and off as you please . And if you’re tired of spending 15-25 dollars a month on renting one from your ISP. Look no further . Here is , in my opinion , the best option available . Great for gaming , streaming , etc . Constant connection and I have no spikes , drops or any issues with connectivity at all . Plus for my situation in about 6 month of using this and the “rental” not being on my bill, it will pay for itself .

    This was exactly what I needed, setup was fairly easy and it's been fast and reliable. It has a strong signal too, I don't even need to use my WiFi extender like I did with my old router/modem.

    I had a Motorola SBG6580 since 2014 amd recently the internet speed was extremely slow. So, I started searching for a new modem router and found Nighthawk... After the set up, the whole family was able to notice the huge difference immediately. It works very good even outside the house (the old one didn’t) I see some reviews where it states “the set up was not easy”... I absolutely disagree with them!! I first downloaded the “Nighthawk” app on my phone and it let me follow the steps and everything was set and running in less than 10 minutes. So, I highly recommend you to use the phone app.

    I have a smaller home, this was able to give me great coverage across my house. The speeds from xfinity are actually 150 mbps down/ 10-15mbps up vs 90/5 on my old modem/router. This also decreased my latency when playing online games. It is pricey, but it has the capability for faster speeds in case I want to upgrade later. Overall it is 2 devices in one, so the price is somewhat justified. I would recommend it, I would avoid the netgear genie software for now. It seems dated and caused more problems than helped. The iPhone app however is clean and actually helpful.

    Previous Netgear finally died after many years. this was an easy choice for a replacement. The Nightgear App makes setup customization and monitoring a breeze. No more slow router sites 192.168.yadayada. The app clearly lists with names the devices on the account proving very beneficial in monitoring tablet time for all the parents out there. Blazing speeds to match my Comcast ability, and reliable signal strength throughout my home with the router placed in the living room(2200 sqft home with basement for reference)

    Xfinity moved into our neighborhood, and I didn't want to rent their router. The Netgear Nighthawk AC1900 was super easy to set up. Even though I read other reviews about needing to pick which band to broadcast while turning the other off, we haven't had any issues leaving them both on. Ours is working great for dual band broadcasting. We not only get the faster speeds with our newer tech, but we have more time to gradually replace our 2.4ghz tech. We've had 8 devices connected at the same time without issue. Gigabit internet makes our HD streaming look amazing. Great router/modem combo.

    When I found out that the modem/router we were using was only getting 100 mbps even though we were subscribing for 200, I got this Netgear Nighthawk C700 to replace it. It was very easy to set up-- automatically assigned a wifi name and password. Upon testing, I found out that my speed was over 200! Before using the product, I thought I needed a new computer(laptop) because it was sluggish, bogged down, the wifi connection kept dropping and I'd have to reboot or unplug the modem and replug. After putting it to use, I realized that I all my computer's prior problems went away!!! Everything (desktop computer too) works better and faster now! It was totally worth the price!!

    Easy to set up and works flawlessly. Replaced my Xfinity modem- router and have saved $14.00 a month since February. It's almost paid for itself. Plus it has beam forming is dual band (2.4 and 5Ghz) and is almost 5 times faster than the old Xfinity unit I had which only went up to 200Mbps (this can go up to 960Mbps) and has 24x8 channels compared to my 7 year old rented one that was 16x4. Necessary purchase for working and schooling from home during the pandemic. No issues at all. Works flawlessly and covers the whole house.

    Had this a while now and it’s a solid router modem combo. Only have to reset maybe a couple times a month but that’s probably more on xfinity. Range is decent but you definitely get fastest speed closer to it. My home office is on the other side of the house so signal is a little lower and at times the video and buffer when there are multiple streaming devices running at once, but that is expected. A mesh system is what I probably need but this gets the job done with minimal work required.

    I had an Arris sbg68... Something or another and it was dropping service and wifi would just cut out. I would have to unplug then plug back in. Well no more since I got this modem/router I have 14 device connected to it and doing all different things not a hitch. Easy to setup and range is better than my previous one too. I told my friend about this one and now he has had it for about a month and he said no problems with his either. I think it's great and fast. A little pricey but worth it in my opinion.

    We've had this for just shy of a month and so far this has been a great router/modem combo. The "Nighthawk" line was recommended to us by a family member and the gentleman at Best Buy who helped us suggested to get one of the two-in-one combos because it saves some money. We were glad that we found the two-in-one in the Nighthawk line and we haven't been disappointed with our purchase at all. We have multiple devices that get used simultaneously and have not had any connectivity issues or problems with streaming, etc. It was easy to set up, too. I would definitely recommend this product.

    I had to return the original Cable Modem Router I bought cause I needed the 24x8 channel bonding and the AC 1200 was only 16x8 I believe. Pretty easy to install, but I had to call my ISP. Some ISP's you can plug and play I believe, but mine wasn't. Not a big deal cause after I installed it and began using it, WOW!!! This was much better than the unit I was paying $12 a month for!! Not to mention it'll pay for itself in a year and a half and it's faster, much wider range, and I don't have to reset it 2 to 4 times a day like I did with the one I rented from our ISP. Definitely worth the money!!
