    Great router for the money. Signal strength is strong with great range, no connectivity issues and works with all my devices. Would definitely recommend this router for anyone looking for a high quality router for not much money.

    Turns out it was un-needed, but maybe in future?

    I am one that seem to always be behind in technology. Had poor WiFi Signal from my provider's router. Started buying more WiFi products in the last 2 yrs or so? So I wanted to upgrade my system on a very low budget, Tried for almost those 2 yrs to learn how to get better WiFi where I live (1st floor of 3 story Apt. building built in the 70's). 1st I bought a WiFi Extender, but still not happy. So I found a deal on this Nighthawk AC2400, and gave it a try. Installation was easy, but understanding it's ability I did need Geek Squad's on-line & phone support. Turns out my best set up was my original provider's router & my WiFi Extender. So I re-boxed my Nighthawk AC2400. But since I may have to move in a year, I will keep it cause the sale & final price was truly unbeatable and the price may not be available at a later date.

    This one is a charm. Just plug and play. Awesome product !. Best suitable for small and large homes. My earlier routers have caused a lot of problems in terms of range, channel and slow internet. This has no issues at all.

    This router is so much faster than the cable provided wifi router. I love the smart features of seeing whats on my network and how many mbps is being used by devices. It also has much better range for our two-story home.

    Definitely recommend. Bought it on sale. The range and connection is great. Pushes more mbps than I actually have with my Internet plan. I have it paired with an Arris modem.

    This improved my home network greatly, I have a very reasonable internet speed plan 30 GB and this has worked like a charm. When needed I will upgrade and enjoy the tech this provides into the future.

    Bought this when it was on sale (less than $100) so hard to beat the value. Needed to upgrade my old router to handle 300mb internet. This handles several devices and HD streaming without an issue.

    Good Upgrade from Linksys WRT54GS

    I had my Linksys WRT54GS since 2007. That router is built like a tank, but is way past old. I needed to upgrade because I was robbing myself internet speed that I was paying for. I have researched routers for years now and finally decided to buy the NETGEAR Nighthawk for $89.99 during Black Friday. My Linksys router was giving me 48 Mbs and the NETGEAR is giving me 68 Mbs with Spectrum standard internet. I like the smartphone features where you can block people on your network and see who is on your router. If you want to setup your router use http://www.routerlogin.net on your desktop because I could not get 192.168.0.1 to work. The NETGEAR Nighthawk router will not disappoint you.

    The Nighthawk AC2400 router was easy to setup and is very fast wired or wireless. The dual band is great for sharing as you can share the 2.4Ghz with guests and keep the 5Ghz for private use.

    This router is great for in home networking service. Both bands work great and have great range, and the WPA2 is easy to set up with the user friendly netgear app. Definitely worth the buy.

    My router/modem that came with my provider was slow. I connected this router to it and speeds were amazing. Not to mention the range. I was finally able to pick up wifi in my backyard.

    This was a great router to buy if you have Spectrum 200Mbps speed, it increases that speed very much so and the signal strength is very strong from the front to the back of the house.

    Been using a Netgear 'N' router without issue coupled with 'N' access points. Very impressed with the AC2400 for range and speed. The few 'AC' band devices we have really 'woke up'.

    Took a bit for an unsophisticated tech like me to set up and I had to call the help line, but they were readily available and helpful. Speed is fine. Coverage is solid. This is 2nd Nighthawk.
