    Great Signal even in the lower level. The Router was easy to set up and so far has worked very well even with a lot of users logged in.

    It covers my 4000SF house without any issues and the internal transfer speed allows streaming via an external hard drive plugged into the USB port.

    We're very happy with this router! We replaced our previous router because the wi-fi wouldn't reach our family room, even with extenders, so we had to move the router into the room to use it. We also do lots of gaming, and our old router wasn't strong enough, so there were constant lags and we'd lose connection. Since we've been using the Nighthawk AC2600, our internet connection has been great and we've had no connection issues. We have a 2 story home, with a small apartment in the backyard, and the internet reaches every room. We highly recommend this router.

    Good and fast wireless router with an easy to use setup. Like most of the features but feel it should have a parental control that can filter sites

    Easy to set up. Works well on smart connect. If you take that off it tends to always ask for passwords. Kind of disappointed for that feature.

    This router works well and has good range, but it's a pain to connect to my printer. I'm not very tech savvy so that could be the problem.

    One of the best routers on the market. Can't go wrong with the range for a 3000 sq ft home. Netgear has great customer service as well.
