    Excellent router after 20 months of use. This does a better job than my Linsys mesh network. I can pick it up from down the street nearly 2 houses. I hope it serves me well for quite awhile longer.

    Bought this to support faster speeds and get rid of constant dropping in and out. It's been good so far. There has been some dropping but nothing like we had with older router.

    The nighthawk instantly changed the way we stream in my household. No more lagging, very easy setup, and more than powerful enough to have 2 adults working from hone without any issues. GREAT purchase, would highly recommend.

    Awesome! This router has great range and kicks butt. I am not tech savvy so was a little nervous about installing. It was super easy though. 1 week after installation I needed an IT guy to help with another project. He saw the router and said it was 'killer'

    Slightly faster than my old ac1900. Was expecting a lot faster. I have gigabit internet and this new router went to 370-420 over wifi vs 350s on the older router. Not staggering better but better. Got it cheap for 150

    I have a wife and two daughters that are on multiple devices throughout the day. The Netgear Nighthawk AX5200 handles it all with ease. It also provides the added protection of letting us know who is on our wifi. Love the device and services Netgear provides.

    The app needs work

    After Reading Reviews on linksys, Asus , netgear routers ima just say everyone has had bad experiences with all of them and they say they all suck. So I said screw it and got a NetgearAX5200 No issues with connect runs great the app would not update firmware , however using the pc link to the router login page I was able to update it. I’m just under the impression when it comes to a router expect some issues on some updates. Nighthawk had a few update with bug fixes, this is technology it’s going to act up until they fix it you can’t expect it to work 100% perfect forever if it’s man made. They need fo work in the app and it could be a 5 star

    Got this for the old man and he loves the thing. He had a modem/router combo from the cable company and it had spotty connections around his two story home. But now with this router his video calls dont hang up / drop!

    Easy to set up and use out of the box. Upgraded an old Nighthawk AC1900 router to this and the speed and connections are faster. Had for 1 month and no issues at all. Would recommend for anyone looking to upgrade.

    Good router but setup was a bit difficult and was a bit time consuming. Once you set it up and get through the minor difficulties, it worked very well and the signals were great throughout the house.

    This Hawk Soars

    Recent owner of Nighthawk AX5200 and this is my experience so far. Easy setup, phone application is cool and unit is rather stylish looking I believe. No QR code found per "easy setup" instructions but it was still very straight forward to manually deploy. My ISP measures around 200 mps at modem. Was pleasantly surprised that up/down speeds were not degraded via the Nighthawk. Love the easy setup on our Wi-Fi devices. I renamed new unit with old routers name and password so all devices worked right off the bat. Included software is very cool and prompted me to go full bore with the Armour BitDefender package. Extremely good deal with recent Black Friday offers. Very please with this purchase and highly recommended. This unit soars.

    Works way better than my internet providers router. (Of course) No problems with the router... able to control who gets to stay longer on the router without completely shutting it off. This is good if you have kids. App is Easy to use as well.

    So far i have no issue with the router. It was easy to setup and configure. One thing i don't like about this model is that it does not come with parental control. For the price it should be included.

    Easy to set up, however my provider had to do something on their end before it would connect. Nothing to do with the router. It might be nice to have that disclaimer included with the instructions.
