    Good Router but needs frequents reboots

    Setup was easy. Both the app and website interfaces are fairly good, but use the web setup if you're relatively experienced in this sort of thing. It keeps up with internet traffic fairly well and manages my network across many devices. My only gripe that keeps it from 5 stars is that this device seems to require daily reboots to keep it working well. My previous router could go a week or 2 before performance dropped and it needed a reboot. But this will drop to maybe 20% performance which requires a reboot every day or 2. It's annoying, but when working well, it is quite good, so ultimately I think this router is worth it!

    Works well in a 900 square foot apartment with multiple devices including phone, laptop, xbox series x, Apple 4K TV, and some basic smart home tech. Got it on sale around Black Friday. For someone who gets annoyed easily with slow or unstable connections, this router gives peace of mind and appears to be relatively future proof.

    Unbelievable Performance Gains

    I upgraded from the NETGEAR - Nighthawk X6 AC3200, which I bought 4 years ago. It served me okay. For years I paid for between 400 with Spectrum and now 800 mbps with Xfinity. The AC3200, as wonderful as it was, would only ever provide 100 mbps at most. Enter the AXE7300. My CM700 modem with Xfinity is rated for 800 mbps. With this new technology, I'm consistently getting 830+ mbps! Even on the 6E bands! My 2.4 GHZ bands are seeing 200+ mbps! I'm over the moon about finally having a good interest speeds in my two story town home. Setup was extremely easy. I don't care about parental controls.

    I’d say it’s pretty good. Range is good, performance has been superb. For the guest logins you can toggle which bandwidths to allow but for the admins i think they are all on by default and as far as i can tell there’s no way to toggle some off. Since I’m the admin i am the only one logged through the non-guest connections so really i don’t need anything not 6G. I would think by being able to toggle those off it would give more resources to the guest logins but who knows. Satisfied though, great sale deal. Got lucky to get it at a discount

    Router is easy to set up using the app. Getting great coverage throughout (about 2000 sq. ft.) with great speeds over wifi (getting full gig over 6e). Highly recommend.

    This router is very fast. We upgraded from a Nighthawk from 6-7 years ago. What a difference! We retested Internet speed and found a 50% increase with better coverage in our house. We don’t have any device that uses 6Ghz band so can’t comment here. The reason why we can’t give 5 stars is the setting up process. We had to call Netgear support for help. It was a convoluted process requiring a 2 hours to finally set up. Kudos to Netgear support, though. No problem since then

    Got this as an upgrade from the typical ISP dual modem/router combo. So much better in terms of quality, speed, and saving from trash default routers.

    I had a 10 year-old Netgear router that I wanted to upgrade and got this. Easy to set-up. The phone app makes configuring this very easy. My signal range extended about 50%. Glad I made the switch. The only negative is that it does occupy more space than my old router. May be best to put on an open shelf.
