    This router is just okay. I used to own a linksy prior to this one in had no issues except it was old. I feel the connection is not as strong and my appliances in my house are always searching for Internet.

    Excellent router distance and speed but the only problem is the fact that there is no 2.5gig ethernet ports for wired devices. Only a 2.5gig port for incoming internet into router via isp.

    This nighthawk really improved our home system with no dead zones in our 3000 sq ft home. It even extends to my superstore workshop. I’m glad for this choice.

    Automatic Setup needs work -

    Do not use the Netgear Setup Wizard to do the setup automatically. Manually set up each device. Also, turn off Netgear Armour if you already have Bitdefender as your security system. I had to unblock devices in router settings. Once through the setup process, the router worked intermittently (not connected to the internet) until I disabled SmartConnect in WiFi settings. I then enabled each band (2.4, 5 & 6GHz) individually. That stopped the loss of internet connection. The router works great now but Wow, what a "nose bleed"!

    Needed a new router cause I couldn’t get more than 91mb from my old one. After less than 15 minutes my nighthawk was running great. Using the nighthawk app my internet speed was 962 mb download and 42 upload, WOW !!!!!

    Bought this to fully maximize my 1gb wifi speeds and it works great! Just make sure your computer/phone/tablet etc. supports wifi 6e (most Apple products dont). The setup was terrible. Dont use the app! Log in on a computer and use tge web interface and it will go smoothly.

    Speeds are better than old router, set-up wasn't difficult and so far seems to be a good all around product for most all wireless needs. Wifi coverage around the house isn't too bad either.

    I have owned it for 3 weeks now and it works great. My laptop connects with Wifi 6, and my new phone connects at Wifi 6E. Haven't had any problems with the Wifi, routing, etc. I do wish they would bring back remote access via the Web interface, or add the features to the Nighthawk App. The Nighthawk App does not have the same features on the Security tab, so remotely I cannot turn of Acces control, that somehow was turned on at the lake house 5 hours away. It was blocking all mac id's for devices. I'm not sure how that got turned on, but I couldn't turn it off without going there! I have no desire to have Netgear Armor and it would not turn off that Access Control. Otherwise, a great router!

    Best wifi router I've owned, purchased this to take place of the unreliable Spectrum provided wireless router and besides the hassel of reconnecting the 30 devices (switches, plugs, phones, computers, tvs, Roku switches...etc..) it works flawlessly.
