    I'd give it 0 stars if I could. Less than 3 months old and random reboots every hour. On the line with tech support for 2 hours and still no resolution but doing the same trouble shooting steps. Last Netgear product for me

    Do not buy, overpriced garbage. Bought 2 with the exact same issues. Keeps dropping connection every 15-20 mins on both wired and wireless connections. Updated firmware and tried factory resets multiple times. The hardware in DUMOS software is very slow and shows it has three CPU cores but only uses two. Went back to make old basic Linksys router and connection was stable. If you're looking for a high end gaming router this is not the one.

    This router keeps dropping the connection , it evenly automatically reset to factory setting. I had have a Netgear AC 2400 for 2 years only, then it failed. I decided to give Netgear an another try , but i was totally frustrated. I decided to go for Asus Ax 11000 after. Wow this is the best one i’ve ever had. Hope this asus will last for years as my parent has one it has been lasting for 5 years already.

    The router delivers as promised, excellent access and streaming anywhere in our two-story home. We are using a 600Mbps internet service for our home. It pairs well with the NETGEAR - Nighthawk 32 x 8 DOCSIS 3.1 Cable Modem.

    Really over complicated for just playing xbox or ps. I tried for an upgrade from the night hawk r8000p but ended up returning this item. If you are patient and have time to spare I would recommend this but if you are just trying to hook up and go better to get a different one.

    No real help with this unless you search all over the internet. Trying to set up is a pain. I would expect for the price you would get a manual not have to go through tons of web searches to try an figure it out

    Always liked Netgear products. Strong wifi signal. My house is ~4,000 sq ft and I get a good signal even at the farthest points. The app is very useful and informative as well. Would highly recommend.

    Been using this for quite some time. The features are a little weird abs perhaps the QOS isn’t exactly as granular as I wanted, but I don’t really have any complaints. It’s post pretty good!

    Works okay. However it is a gaming router geared towards gamers. One cannot set up QOS for highest priority, gaming takes precedence. If you are not a gamer, don't buy this product. It is difficult to tweak.

    Ipv6 doesn't work and have worked since this router was released. I'm not certain why netgear hasn't addressed this being that this is an important feature for gaming.
