    This router works great, all my devices connected perfectly and there is plenty of bandwidth to go around, primarily bought it because my son got a oculus quest 2 for Christmas and he is able to play all of his steam games wireless.

    We have been using the same router for years and were having a hard time with our internet connection, until we bought this router! So glad we bought this router, wish we would have switched sooner!

    If you are looking for a great router to handle multiple devices at home this is the one! There are at least 15-20 devices connected at home along with multiple gaming consoles and this router doesn't flinch! I would recommend this router!

    This is a great router. I upgraded from a Netgear WNDR4500, which was great but did not offer modern Wi-Fi speeds after I upgraded to a gigabit connection. Depending on where I am I now get 300-500 MBps when connected over 5 GHz.

    Worth it, especially given the deal from Best Buy

    I'm not very techy so it's difficult for me to know just how good this router is. I can say that many of our issues regarding two people video conferencing simultaneously in the house ceased after we upgraded to this device. We did occasionally still have pauses in streaming TV; these instances have been infrequent but are why I deducted one point from my rating. Best Buy had a nice deal on this at the time I bought and I'd say it was a very good value.

    Ok NetGear router. Was not enough for our needs unfortunately. Returned and went with a higher end ASUS model. Very happy with my decision. This would be perfect for a small apartment or home office.

    Awesome router for gaming. My download and upload speeds are much more stabilized than with my older router, the phone app lets me manage devices so I can free up bandwidth and get the best possible connection when I’m gaming.

    I live in a split level house and this gets a signal throughout the whole house with no problem. I did have an Orbi that wasn’t working as well. I switch to this and I can definitely tell the difference.

    This works so well. The app is so easy to use and you can see who’s on your WiFi and kick them off if you want. I really like it. Definitely worth the money. It’s easy to set up and use with your router.

    Great product; I am supposed to get up to 300 mbps with my Internet plan but I was getting around 50-60 mbps with my old one; this pumped my speed to almost 200 mbps; must have !
