    We love this router! It has great wifi coverage and we were able to use an external antenna with its versatile removable antenna connections. The other antenna's were very easy to screw in. Although, I did not like that they wanted one to use the nighthawk app to setup the device (the app is trash). You do have an option to ignore this, if you use a pc and use the WebApp version.

    Worked well when I first got it but it's very buggy. I had to factory reset it more than once because it decided to drop all of my devices and not allow anything to reconnect.
