    Bought this for my girlfriend after she moved into her new place and the setup was quite easy. Just scanned the QR code and followed the instructions and worked like a dream. Covers 918SQFT with full bars, the protection system/app makes monitoring any unwanted devices on the network easy. Definitely recommend this for apartment living.

    Fantastic beast. Improved my total range despite concrete downstairs to allow for security camera systems to be connected at all times. Lanes rarely if ever feel clogged under maximum pressure of streaming televisions, cell phones, security systems and laptops/PC's/game consoles all on to stress test. The only variant I would've bought otherwise was the Netgear offering above this, but I didn't have time to wait multiple weeks for slightly more. The convenience to buy a beast in a Best Buy locally and not have to question its quality is great. 3.1 allows it to be relevant for sometime standard wise. Wifi 6 allows my devices to operate as fast as I can offer them. Plus its quiet despite its size/air vents atop. With how companies charge yearly for a bad/middling router, this unit will easily pay for itself in the long run both mentally and effectively.

    I'm really happy with this modem, no issues activating it myself with xfinity. I only got 300 mbps internet with xfinity, and speed tests routinely show somewhere around 350 mbps download speed. Installation was easy with both xfinity and the netgear app. My house isn't a huge house, but I'm getting wifi well everywhere, including the rooms upstairs. The previous owner of this house put the coaxial cable and power outlet in a really weird spot (above the fridge cabinetry) and fortunately when lying this router flat, it fit fine.

    ​I bought this DOCSIS 3.1 modem and Wi-Fi 6 router combo to get rid of my cable provider's monthly rental fee, and the quality improvement is undeniable. The initial setup with Xfinity/Spectrum/Cox (depending on your provider) was surprisingly simple, just requiring a quick call. ​What truly impressed me is the performance. The speeds I’m getting now are much more consistent, and my Wi-Fi 6 (AX2700) signal is solid throughout my home (around 2,000 sq. ft.), easily covering all my streaming and gaming devices. It feels fast and stable. ​The combination of DOCSIS 3.1 and Wi-Fi 6 is excellent future-proofing, as I know it will handle higher speed plans without issue. ​The only thing to consider is the high initial price, but it quickly pays for itself by eliminating the equipment rental fee. ​Final verdict: If you want to stop paying rental fees, upgrade to Wi-Fi 6 technology, and have an ultra-reliable connection with a single device, the Nighthawk AX2700 is a quality investment that I totally recommend. It's fast, easy to set up, and very stable.

    Complete protection and information. Reported frequent DoS attacks and blocked them all. I can only imagine why this was happening, but I felt way more secure knowing this was taken care of. The generative security reports are awesome. Yes it’s a bit pricey but you get so much bang for your buck. Thanks Best Buy for having such a great product available

    Significantly better coverage than the internet provider’s Wi-Fi router. Super easy to setup when using the phone app. The armor feature is pretty neat, scans my network for vulnerabilities and actively blocks bad sites too. Has plenty of features I’m looking forward to using too like the VPN. Overall I’m very happy with the device.

    Originally I had mistook this router for another one I had seen that I was going to get. This one was more expensive then what I had wanted to spend. But I killed over it and decided it was probably worth it to get. And IT WAS! This router is crushing it! PS5, Xbox, PS4, 2 laptops and all kinds of streaming and phones connected and I get amazing speeds! HATS OFF to Nighthawk because this router is superb. Really easy to set up and compatible with Xfinity. I'm upset Xfinity is charging me more to use my own router now that I have an awesome one. But still it's Worth it's price big time. Yes I recommend it

    I live with my family, 5 total people constantly using the internet whether it be streaming or gaming. I game all of the time and before I bought this product I would lag CONSTANTLY, even after upgrading the internet. What I realized was the xfinity modem router we rented could not handle the amount of internet usage by all of us all at once. So I bought this hoping it would fix the issue and it definitely did. I have not lagged ONCE since I bought this product and my download speeds are insane. It is worth the purchase 100%.
