    After a year of use, i think i will now change back to TP-Link. They were great for me and this device is not really broadcasting well. Not too strong to cross a couple of Drywalls. I thought it would be an upgrade but no. Every case is different and this is my particular case.

    I would not recommend this product. NETGEAR customer service is awful, very unpleasant set up. It is dual band so the speed is not that fast if you have multiple devices. I spent over one hour trying to set it up. It has a good range as promoted. They offer a malware protection for 60 days free and then they ask to pay a subscription for the use.

    Routers out of the box should be able to connect two computers together via ethernet cables. It should have a DHCP server built in so you can talk to and configure it. NOT Netgear. To do anything you have to connect it directly to the internet PERIOD. So its an internet thing that calls itself a router. Thats just wrong and its going back. They can keep it.

    The signal is strong when it works, but for some reason I would always loose the internet connection at night. Since switching to another router I no longer have that issue.

    this product is horrible, I will never trust or recommend this brand to anyone. Setting it up was very easy but after setting it up it wouldn't receive any service. I called customer service but they weren't at all. Please don't west your time trying to buy this product I tried it but it wasn't successful. Thank God for best buy for accepting returns, if not my money would have been a west. The only thing I regretted was wearing my time.

    I’m not sure when this happened, but Netgear now charges you for “security” protection to be able to even USE THE ROUTER!!!!!!!!!! We were told we’d have to buy a subscription and just ONE year was $150. Theyre now forcing subscriptions on customers. I paid over $300 for a router just to be told id have to buy a subscription.
