    I’m happy that I purchased this product. This modem is super fast, download takes only a second and streaming has no issue with HD and supports 4K streaming as well. I have a home theater with 4K and I have no problem encountered. Streaming and downloading is very fast and smooth. Easy set up.

    This device is amazing. I had no idea the difference it would make with my internet service using a different brand wifi receiver. Every device in my two story home has access and every device respond faster now and even my streaming devices have shown a world of difference. I admit the device is pricey but it is definitely worth it!

    Too expensive but a good router

    Easy set up...kind of. They want you to use the app but it was glitchy. If you know anything about routers it's not that hard. It is fast but the range is not near as good as I'd hoped for. I have a 2500 sqft home and the router is in the garage. It may be interference from building material, however, my nighthawk, X4S covered the whole house.

    Great Router! Just Review the Specs!

    The router is fantastic and performs as expected. The app is incredibly user-friendly, and I appreciate the ability to visually identify and categorize all my devices for better organization. It supports both 2.4GHz and 5GHz WiFi bands, which enables older devices to connect to the 2.4GHz band while newer devices (such as iPhones and modern technology) can connect to the 5GHz band if preferred. However, there are a few drawbacks to consider. If you have a Google Nest Thermostat, it will only function on the 2.4GHz WiFi band (standard non-5G internet). Additionally, the router’s security settings are set to WPA3 by default. It’s crucial to switch this security setting via the NetGear App to WPA2/WPA3. The reason for this is that older devices (old smartphones, printers, thermostats, especially Google Nest) only support WPA2, while newer devices can function on WPA3 (like the ecobee New Smart Thermostat Enhanced). Consequently, most thermostats (especially Google Nest) will not connect to your WiFi network if it’s set to WPA3 security. Therefore, it’s essential to change the security setting to WPA2/WPA3.

    This is a great router; after the initial setup, which was a little time consuming, it has worked flawlessly with excellent coverage over our entire 3,900 house. The app works great for managing the traffic of the router. I would highly recommend this product!

    I’ve had this beauty for almost a week now and noticed a significant difference in speed. I looked up many reviews and videos before buying and I’m glad I did. Set up was quick and easy as well. I paired it with xfinity coax and called them for the set up on their end with no delay.

    My ISP (WOW) was giving me issues, even after upgrading my internet speed package, still was slow with buffering and drop issues. Researched and swapped out their equipment for this modem/router combo and my service has been better. I would recommend so far.

    I upgraded to the Nighthawk as Comcast said my Arris Surfboard was no longer supported. The Nigthawk is working great I like that there is an app to monitor the performance, etc. it was also easy to set up my Orbi and satellites with the Nighthawk.

    Speedy fast modem with easy setup. I completed set up in about 15 minutes. I have been using the new modem for just over a week and am impressed with its power. One tip: if you are upgrading equipment, download the Netgear app before shutting down your existing modem.

    What a big improvement over my last wireless modem that finally gave up. My neighbor uses my signal (I let them) and they get 5 bars of signal strength . I was able to get rid of a problematic extender because it was no longer needed. It has made all my devices faster to use. Very happy with it's performance.

    Decided to stop renting equipment from the cable company, settled on this modem/router and couldn't be happier. The speed is great all over and outside my 2000 sq ft house, using apps to watch my Xfinity cable so no more wires or boxes. Runs like a champ, haven't lost signal a single time since it's been in.
