    The instructions have you install an app and take some steps to get your phone and the router talking over wireless for configuration.

    Inconsisten performance, When works normally, excellent. But when speed goes down, it is difficult to set it up, modem when wired gives better speed. Gives trouble many a times, I work from home. Some time I get irritated with its performance. Sometimes after few reboots it works normally. Netgear, when called, says out of warrany and need @$100 for tech support to fix it.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    But the best thing is the app. It has remote access and allows for easy management of the bands, along with a guest account.
