    Being compatible with Xfinity was my biggest concern & this modem did not let me down. Fast speed & great connection....would definitely recommend.

    We needed something that had pretty good range and also able to handle higher speeds. This has not disappointed. Strong signal everywhere in the house and great coverage. Both bands work great and we have no complaints. Super happy with our purchase

    I decided to switch from ATT to the local cable company. This is one of the routers on their list. Setup could not have been easier. I did use the app from Netgear. The router is fast, easy to attach devices ( password is not too difficult to remember), and has an excellent range. This is a great router.

    I bought this after Xfinity upped the internet speed to my house and my old modem/router would not cut it anymore. Set up was easy and the speed now is great with really good coverage throughout the house. Note - Xfinity pushes updates down after set up and performance for the first day was iffy at best. But after the first day, it has been blazing.

    It’s a high performance router for a very affordable price delivering solid speeds along with easy to use software allowing me to be up and running within 5 minutes. It’s long range and stability pushed my Wi-FI network into many previously uncovered parts of my home.

    This router has rocketed me into a new world! The signal is so strong and incredibly fast. Updating my Xbox used to take endless hours, never fully updating. With this beauty Xbox updates were completed literally in minutes. Now Xbox, PS4 and all devices can finally be used at the same time with no problems! Thank you BB for selling me this top notch router!

    Bought this to replace the one provided by the cable company that was unreliable for a reasonable distance. It has performed very well goes through about 3 solid old walls to get to my office and i no longer get the random lag gaming i used to. Havent had any drops or issues really at all in over 2 months of use. Very happy and it will pay for itself not renting one from the cable company.

    The NETGEAR Nighthawk AC1900 WiFi Cable Modem Router is one of the most sensible purchases you can make if you currently rent or need to replace a Modem/Router. I recently purchased this unit on sale from Best Buy and I and my family are most pleased with its performance compared to the unit that was provided to me as a rental. This unit with its Built-in DOCSIS 3.0 Cable Modem is a snap to install, just simply install the cable from your ISP and the unit will connect itself. Within five minutes I was up and running. The powerful 1.6GHz processor will boost your overall performance for enhanced gaming, HD & 4k video streaming. If you want the best WiFi reception thru out your home in 2.4-5GHz for your mobile devices or smart TV's, I prefer the 5GHz for super fast wireless connection this unit will do the job. It also has a host of safety features that are built in for your convenience such as Guest Network, parental controls for safer web surfing, and allows you to set your own passwords, select your own wifi protected access, has DoS Denial of Service attack prevention built in. This Modem/Router is good for up to about 600 mbps, If you have Giga speeds then you will need a Router with DOCISS 3.1, and yes NETGEAR does have a unit for you, and yes Best Buy offers that unit.

    I bought this router I little over a year ago and it’s a great buy. Saved me money on my internet service with Comcast and I haven’t had a problem yet with the performance of the router. I use it mostly for a smartTv, gaming, Wi-Fi for a tablet and 2 cell phones. It’s fast and easy to hookup. Love this product.

    This baby has been great for us, lots of speed and power to get to the far reaches of our home. I've owned several Netgear products over the years and very few have ever failed. Am very used to their administration system now so I'm probably biased about ease of use, but I find them to be very reliable.

    I have been using this router/modem for several months now. My computer and PS4 do not buffer during gameplay anymore when compared to my previous router. Also, there are no dead zones in my 2000 sq ft house. Previous modem/router's signal did not extend to bedrooms from master bedroom on split floor plan. Super easy to set up and interface is much easier with fewer glitches.

    Im very impressed with the blazing speed and range. Also the set up was very simple and I have a very hard time setting up internet connections. I thought $200 plus was little too expensive, but you get what you pay for, its very fast, instructions very easy for set up and very good range. I use netflix 4K, 3tv's 3 cell phone lap top and iPad and it works great. I would recommend it 100%.

    I was looking for a modem-router that was compatible with many different internet companies and enables a decent speed because I eventually want to get a little tech savvy. This works great, especially for a one-bedroom apartment. So far, I have only been limited by my internet package. I have had zero problems from it.

    I purchased the NETGEAR Nighthawk C7000-100NAS router to pair with my existing Time Warner Cable internet subscription. The Nighthawk has exceeded my expected performance expectations. No repeaters were necessary for me to install thanks to the range the Nighthawk has provided, with no loss in internet speed.

    Recommended Modem Router for high speed internet

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    -Setup I currently used the TWC leased modem. It was simply replugging my cables from the old modem to the AC1900 and everything was smooth as silk to setup my modem. -Features Strong Wireless Features with 4 ethernet and 1 usb connections. All in 1 combo to make your room clean and organized. -Performance This modem router has an outstanding performance. The TWC lease modem is currently a wireless modem Arris DG1670a. My internet service is 200/20. The TWC modem's wireless was giving me 70 mbps down, which is almost 3 times less the speed. After using the AC1900, My down stream boosted to 180 mbps. I can surely say the wireless is massively stronger and giving me what I am paying for. My ethernet connection to the AC1900 was toping more speed as well. This is truly a beast. -Expectations I honestly disliked wireless featured modems due to the lack of performance, but after using this AC1900 It has changed my whole perspective on these products. -Price-Value My work forces me to have good internet connection around my house. It is sad that the provided routers from TWC are not fulfilling the performance for the service I pay for. If you know you need quality internet performance you will know what to get. Certainly having everything in a combo package works better. You do not have to have a separate wireless router and modem. If one of them fails you are bound to replace one of them, thinking in the long run this is price efficient. -Recommend I truly recommend this product for people that currently have a good internet service and wants to take advantage after it. Strong wifi signal and coverage truly made me fall in love with this product. I have received this product from Netgear with the Friends & Family program, to provide an unbiased honest opinion and review.

    Worked better than the defective modem from our provider, but does NOT work with Spectrum Gig Internet. This was my fault, I should have double checked before buying it. I didn’t; and had to return it a few days later after contacting Spectrum. If you have Spectrum Gig Internet, it will still give you about 300-500mbps speeds. It will not allow for full speeds. I bought this originally because our devices were consistently getting kicked off the WiFi when a new device connected. With our entire house working from home full-time, we needed more reliability. This modem/router was very reliable. It did not kick our devices offline. I loved that it was one device for both modem and router. Great product, if your ISP supports it.

    Significant boost over horrid Arris cablemodem/router Spectrum gave me. $200 is a little steep, but I don't have to pay Spectrum each month for theirs. (Actually, in fairness, their hardware is free... weirdly, they charge you to use the wifi on it, if you can believe that!) Very easy to set up and configure. Great range and speed.
