This router works very well. It was easy to set up using the Nighthawk App. It told me the router was working and that it didn't have a signal. After the MAC address was sent to the ISP it started putting out the signal. Customer service was very professional and helpful to get the desktop hooked to it working. The router puts out good signal strength on both bands. The speed test showed that it was much faster than the old Netgear router I was using. Signal is very fast and reliable even through a couple of walls to the tv which is about 35 feet away.

Setup was easy with the included instructions. The router is able to cover my home pretty reliably with great speeds. Gaming with this router has been the biggest improvement as you can set up which devices get priority bandwidth and also set a limit on which gaming servers are used when playing online. The included DUMAos has made changing router settings very easy and also has an app that can be downloaded to any smartphone. The Nighthawk app also allows you to monitor your network on the go as well. Overall a great purchase.

So far no dead spots anywhere in our 2 story house. It also casts far enough that we have internet in our shop about 75 feet from the unit

“This product works exactly as described. I was a bit hesitant at first and had some doubts before purchasing, but after using it for several months, I can honestly say I’m very satisfied with my decision. The quality met my expectations, it performs reliably, and it has proven to be a worthwhile purchase. I would definitely recommend it and would consider buying it again in the future.

It's a router. It does what it's supposed to. I have good coverage throughout the house. It's located under a stairwell in the middle of the basement, so fairly obstructed but strong signal everywhere I need it to be in a 2100 sqft 2-story house. Setup through the Nighthawk app was a breeze.

I have a TP Link Archer which cost me almost $800, this router at half the cost is faster, more reliable and easier to use. I have roughly 40 connections between cameras, tvs, phones, computers, gaming systems, and etc.. This router handles it with ease.

We had the older Nighthawk R700 but it was starting to have connectivity issues. So, got this and noticed an improvement in range and signal strength. Was able ro stop using an extender. And, BB stood by their price match policy so all's good.

This router was a fantastic purchase. Setup was simple and it drastically improved my WiFi throughout my home. Our internet provider had recommended the pods that they provide and they were terrible. This router immediately improved our WiFi. And with a total of 16 devices on our network we have yet to see any issues with the WiFi being bogged down.

We have a large house and we found the router from your provider was just awful. We are now able to get a really good signal even at the farthest point in the house away from the router. I also tested Internet speed on each channel, even at the farthest point we can stream 4K easily. Note: I disabled the radios on my old router and strictly use the Nighthawk.

It's easy to set-up due to the app.
The coverage is great - even into a large adjacent room.
The speed is the best we've ever had from NETGEAR.

I bought this to extend the number of 2.5 ghz devices because my older net gear router was maxed out. I use the new device as my primary and have a wired connection to the older router. Everything thing is working great and I am no longer experiencing intermittent outages of my security cameras

Hitting a full 1gb download speeds with this router! Had some trouble initially with Apple products, but figured it out by searching online and changing some settings. Great for gaming and is able to reach my entire 2600sqft house

I bought this router to replace a different router that no longer offers top-notch speeds. Went from 150 to 500 so really happy with the router. Easy to set up, but some devices had to be re-installed on the wi-fi network

Bought this so I could use my Wi-Fi enabled products out in my Pole barn, while this is on the 2nd floor of my house, about a 100 feet away. Works great so far.
