    I have had a Nighthawk router for years. I really appreciate the parental controls. This new router has parental controls but they fail to block any sites. In addition to the parental controls, I have had to reset the router in the 1st week. I would recommend spending a little more for a better product

    Overpriced junk of a router

    I bought this $300 router to replace my 5 year old $150 asus router. I made a huge mistake. Upon first connect the router I was impressed the range reached the ally behind my house. That was short lived however. Once all devices were connected (tv's, phones, and xbox), the range was cut in half and wouldn't reach rooms on the back of my house. Which the asus did with full signal. Then the worse part. Every 4 days or so it would lock up, shut down the wifi, and the ethernet ports until it was unplugged and rebooted. A router in this price range should have these issues.
