Many appreciate the quick and easy setup process and reliable Wi-Fi signal, resulting in excellent coverage throughout their homes. However, some customers find the router's size to be a drawback, and a few mention that the price point is relatively high. The strong performance and broad coverage generally outweigh these concerns for most users.

This unit is not compatible with Century Link ADSL contrary to what Century Link, Netgear and Best buy service staff say. Even had a 3 way conference call between the Philippines and India and could not solve the problem,

Very Impressive Device

This was very easy to set up and a huge upgrade from my internet service provider device. I have had the Nighthawk for a month now and have not encountered any problems.
The first thing you notice is the speed and range. I have the Nighthawk in my upstairs office on one end of the house and able to get a strong signal on all my tv’s and devices inside the house. I was still able to get a strong signal outside on my laptop as well.
No flaws in performance flaws to date and no problems watching Netflix on my devices outside on the patio.
You can’t beat the price considering there is nothing more frustrating than a poor performing product.
I would definitely recommend this to anyone as I have purchased one for my parents as well.

I am the first to admit I am NOT tech savvy. But typically the wife or I can eventually get it figured out. But I found this product Not user friendly. The "support" I found was only a link to questions I finally just returned the product

I enedup returning this. I needed a modem with a wifi extender. I was told this would work. However it does not work as an extender I needed. I'm sure it's a good modem. Just not the kind that I needed.

When it worked it was good, started going bad after about six months, had to reboot it all the time, died after seven months. Can't say I could recommend it to others.

Had trouble with this from the start. It would connect to the internet until I installed a new firmware. It still didn't work after doing that.

The real truth from tech person

All these reviews saying it's slow, it didn't work and it's not any good are absolutely wrong. I've had this since before it was released to the U.S. Market and I know for a fact the auto setup works fine and range is better than most all the old modem gateways. If it's not working then you've done something wrong. I stand behind most netgear products and I have several, from this modem router up to the night hawk R8500 AC5300 router.

Will NOT work with with CenturyLink DSL

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
This is a great modem/router and worked well when I had a 12mbps connection speed with CenturyLink. After I upgraded to 40mbps CenturyLink required a dual bonded modem which the Nighthawk D7000 does not have. I spent two hours on the phone with Netgear, 45 min of which included CenturyLink tech support, but wasn't able to make it work.
