    Replaced a Google Mesh network with Nighthawk router. Wanted separate 2.4 & 5 bands. The install directions were easy to follow andt it recognized existing devices automatically. Did not have to add them individually. Very happy with it's performance so far.

    Recently upgraded to WiFi 7 with the help of a Nighthawk RS500 and couldn't be happier! Much improved ping, download, and upload speeds compared to my old AX5400, plus the range is a bit better. My network should be solid for another 3-5 years!

    High speeds, router is furthest corner of house and covers 2000sq ft with ease and not much slow down. I considered a mesh system but I wanted one single router. This was the one. And it’s future proof with WiFi 7.

    Overall a great purchase. It tripled our normal WiFi speeds we had through our standard provider issued modem. Install was easy. My only reason for the 4 star is the app. It’s not as intuitive as it should be. I am sure after some time it will be good.

    To many subscriptions. Other then that the router works great. Has great signal. Return it only because it had too many subscriptions. Going back to Asus.

    20 device home network that is on a 400 MIPS ISP Cable Modem was extremely slow with old router. Now is much more robust and more secure using the built in Netgear Armor security package.

    This Nighthawk BW1200 future proofs my network

    My IPS increased our service to 1000 MPS and we wanted a system to support our currnet WiFi demands and also HD streaming usagage in the future. Upgrading cost at Best Buy was discounted my pruchase with a 15% off coupon for recycling an old router and my Best Buy Plus memebership provided an additon discount. It was a significant saving. The column design of the router takes less space and is more visually apealing, than my previous flate 4-antenna style.

    My experience in the store was nothing short of amazing. I came in and asked for this specific router, which she immediately found! My review would have been 5 stars! But unfortunately they weren't able to price match with a cheaper option I found.
