    Strong WiFi, Weak Interface

    I have a 2700 sq ft house and the WiFi signal is good everywhere. I haven't had any router that has had as good WiFi coverage through the whole house like this one. It loses one star because in it's simplicity, the interface is crippled. Parental controls require you to install the Netgear app, and won't let you set them via the web app, which makes no sense at all. Parental Controls also require an Open DNS account, which is an added step. Also, it takes extra configuration to apply parental controls to just selected devices, meaning by default they are set for every computer. Setting parental schedules to limit usage are also difficult. Just a poor, non-intuitive controls system.These are all things i have been able to do on other routers very easily. In a nutshell, if WiFi coverage is most important and you don't need parental controls, I highly recommend this. If you want simple, easy to use parental controls, consider if you want to use OpenDNS as well...and even then it's not great.

    We were having trouble getting service in several rooms in the house. Now we are completely covered and internet is very fade. Also easy to set up.

    Router works great with Xfinity Internet

    This is a very good modem/router to use with Xfinity Internet. Rather than rent a refurbished unit, I decided to purchase this cable modem/router. Netgear is known for its solid products, and this is one of them. I am getting my full Internet speed, and the WiFi signal is strong throughout my 2-story house. i am very satisfied with this router, along with its price.

    I purchased this Netgear because I wanted my own Modem instead of renting it from my internet provider. and I am very pleased with it. Just remember, when you hook it up, you need to make sure and read the instructions because you may need to check with Netgear for further instructions.
