    Fast router, easy set up if you want to avoid being cornered by your cable company I recommend getting your own equipment and by far NETGEAR is the way to go.

    Awesome router and provides plenty of speed. It's fast and can handle tons of traffic between me and 4 others on my WiFi. Never experienced lag or any cut outs. Would recommend

    Totally easy to set up. The Nighthawk app is the best. I had a Nighthawk router previously and the new one was up and running seamlessly with twice the speed!

    With the ease of setup and all the other features that comes with a Netgear router why use anything else. I handles my high speed network, has great range and works for the multitude of devices I have in my home.

    I got this router to replace a lesser model I had had for over 5 years that was starting to fail. This one was recommended to me for faster speed and broader range (3500 sq ft house) and it has been great.

    So far, pretty happy with the AX5400. I have a 2 story house and the coverage is good, as well as the speed. Setup was easy with the mobile app on my cell phone.

    I ended up purchasing two of these for two different locations. The use of a phone app made the initial set up easy. However, if you want to adjust the detailed features, such as QoS, you still have to log into the router directly. Both locations had extenders, which were handled easily by the app once the extenders were reset to factory settings. The app also takes care of making sure the latest firmware is installed. The one complaint I have is that I have to re-enter the password when moving from location to the other. The app assumes you only have one router, but once you enter the password, it suddenly remembers the other configuration. A bit awkward, but it works.

    Works perfectly. No issues. Handling more than 30 devices connected at the same time. Some of which do not even support wifi6. But my wifi6 devices all get about 90% + of the speed via wifi which is amazing. I used to get half of the speed if I was connected via wifi on my old router. No noise of interference on any of my devices. No dropped signal and the nighthawk interface is good. Sometimes the interface block websites as malecious or add sites specially from TV apps or Amazon tablets but if it previnting this app from working you can just allow it on you phone.

    With all the changes around COVID we have had 4 kids on laptops doing zoom meetings, online school schoolwork you name it. I also started working from home and our previous router was having a hard time keeping up. We could see an immediate increase in our internet speed after we hooked up the new router wish we would have made the change sooner. Also connecting the new router up way fairly straightforward and quick.
