    Best upgrade from our out of date nighthawk router. We needed to get away from the router our internet company provided and finally get over 1g speed!

    Setup instructions did not correspond with what actually happen. In the beginning the unit was dropping WiFi constantly. Reviewing YouTube videos, I resolve the problem by changing the internal channels. So far the unit has dropped WiFi once since I made the changes. Also, I noticed an increase in internet speed.

    This Netgear modem router combo does a great job transferring my WiFi speeds. It was fairly easy to set up through the Netgear app and the rest of the set up was done on my laptop. If I have a problem it’s because of our internet provider, which is Cox.

    Absolutely one of the best modem/router i have ever own. I have multiple kids and multiple devices in which this nighthawk traffic rarely slowed down. My replacement will be the same or better model.

    I bought this on a recommendation from a friend as I was moving into my new home and never had suddenlink as an ISP before. I am glad to say that this router has exceeded my expectations and works as advertised. Somewhat pricey but no regrets.

    I had been waiting for this router for a really long time. When it came out I quickly bought it. I have 1 gb of download speed at home. The WiFi 6 is super fast.

    I love Netgear routers. I won't buy any other brand. I have never used a modem/router combo before but it was just as easy to set up as a stand alone router. I highly recommend this product!

    Reluctant Change

    Worth the expensive price. Can be controlled from your phone or local access. If you do not know much about network settings each aspect of the settings has a clear guide for which it is for. Powerful Wifi signal. Mixes well with Orbi mesh system and out-of-market Apple Airport Extreme. Yes, I still have Airport Extreme because of how stable they are. No signal interference if set up correctly. I had a Motorola Modem-Router for 10 years and which was hard to let go. My internet provider increased the bandwidth and good old Motorola could not keep up with the increase so I made the switch. Hope this Netgear Modem has the durability of Motorola.

    Fast but range in a old home not the best. I even have an ax1600 extender for camera's in the front of my house and my bedroom device. The connection to them are spotty at best.

    I had been after my husband to update our combo modem/router for months. I kept having to restart my Mac laptop which is barely 5 years old and thought it was our Wifi connection and not the laptop. I did a lot of research and needless to say I was right! Apparently as a Best Buy store rep told me months ago you need to replace the router about every 4- 5 years max and our old Netgear router/modem Docis 3.0 was over 5 years old. Our house is 2 story 3900 square feet and the this sits upstairs in my husband's office yet there doesn't seem to be any problem with the distance to where I usually sit with my laptop. This Netgear Nighthawk does the job!
