    Works way better than my previous Nighthawk, which was a great router. I now have a signal where I used to use an extender to get a signal. Only thing is there’s now spotty service outside of my house and ironically when I use my extender the signal is much worse than just the router by itself.

    I have tried a couple of different routers and found this one to work the best. I have not had problems with it dropping connections it is small but powerful. I really like the app that comes with this, easy to understand and great for monitoring speed and activity

    The AX5200 is a fast and powerful router for single-device, or multiple-device usage. The Nighthawk app gives you access to many customization and security controls which allow you to keep your internet usage under your own control, and it works with many internet service providers, including Verizon Fios.

    I had Google mesh wifi and everyone was complaining of internet buffering even though it was increased. I bought this on Black Friday for $150 (great deal). It works so good I do not need an extender to reach any where in my 2,000 sq ft house. No more buffering. It is worth it even at regular price $300.

    So far so good, I have netgear for years and this one is not bad, the only thing I dont like is that netgear wants to charge for extra protection. I think it should be included instead of 90 days. Over all good.. I own 2 of them. The range is actually good, it covers most of my house.

    Got this to replace my ax35 router which was losing internet and would have to reboot every week, was skeptical on buying another Netgear but this one was half off at Best Buy so I thought I would give Netgear another chance, easy setup with the app and no drops so far after almost a week.Bought the Best Buy 4 year warranty for $29 just in case.

    I've researched routers probably for over 3 years now. I told myself that when and if we moved, we would 100% be upgrading to a Nighthawk. We just moved to the middle of NO WHERE. I mean NO WHERE. And this baby gives us faster internet that when we were right smack dab in the middle of the busting Metroplex. Highly HIGHLY recommend!

    We should have changed our router long back. This was an awesome purchase. We now get up to 700mbps on my phone when we do a test after changing both modem and router ( our plan is 900Mbps) We had a problem updating firmware on one item, had to exchange it.the second one worked fine

    Definitely an upgrade vs my older wifi router. However, this is too new that my sprinkler system that has wifi cannot recognize it. Beyond that, it's been great! It gives me faster and further connections, that's what I wanted and I got it.

    I needed a more reliable wireless connection, since I have been working form home. The Nighthawk has been perfect! Much better than the ISP provided routers, which have always been fine. But the Nighthawk is a clear upgrade! It’s a must buy for anyone who needs to be versatile with today’s internet connection demands!

    Decent upgrade from Netgear R6250. Just make sure you position the antennas correctly to get the most out of the router.

    Needed to upgrade the wifi router and had been eyeing this one for a while! When it went on sale I swooped it up and have had no problems with it since. Easy to set up and has provided fast wifi signal throughout the house. Would recommend to a friend and if you buy it you will not be disappointed!
