This router is way much better than my last (mesh type). Installation was easy, and it worked seamlessly. Not only did it meet my ISP’s projected gigabit internet but exceeded the expectations. Strong signal anywhere in my 2-bedroom condo. Look no further and get this router.

We upgraded our old gateway to this router paired with a modem from our ISP. My family is impressed by the faster speeds and increased range over our old model. This works well for our 1500sf home. Would recommend!

This router is my second nighthawk. My first lasted for a long time and when it was time to replace, I knew that I would buy another. The app is also helpful when trying to diagnose an issue with service.

Its definitely better than the router it replaced, however the 2.4ghz seems to be pretty bad. Note: i live in a singlewide trailer that is 56ft. The router is almost dead center. For whatever reason the speed and connectivity is completely unstable in my master bedroom. 5ghz works perfectly there and further. I primarily upgraded for the processor and the fact it advertises to handle more devices than my previous. All in all its a decent up to date router.

Title: Great product at a reasonable price
Description: Netgear Nighthawk RS100 is a router for those who want wireless tech without the high price tag. It’s compact, affordable and offers faster performance than many older routers. Good speed for streaming, conferencing and general business internet needs. Great coverage for my office which is 1500 sq ft. Bottom line is that it offers solid baseline speed for everyday internet and internal networking. It was super easy to set up . ( I configured it through the IP address not the Nighthawk app.) Bottom line: entry-level Wi-Fi 7 performance at a low price.

Great product with insanely fast speeds. My townhouse is about 1,600 sq ft and I have no issues in any part of the house. I like to game and get pretty competitive, and this router has been incredible. Zero lag and smooth connection. Also, the app gives you control over your connected devices and super simple to use.

Setup was fast and painless—I was up and running in minutes. The router itself looks sleek and modern, not something you feel the need to hide on a shelf. It’s been a perfect fit for the size of our home, with strong, consistent coverage throughout. The companion app is a nice bonus: easy to use, informative, and actually helpful for monitoring and managing the network. Overall, a solid upgrade and well worth it.

I was searching for a router for my mom and I knew absolutely nothing about them but that I didn't need to do fancy things. I did some research on Best Buy and chose three different ones online to pick up in the store so that I could see which one that the Best Buy employee recommended most from my choices of affordable ones. He was very knowledgeable, pleasant to talk to, and assuring so that I felt confident that he knew what he was talking about. I chose two TP routers and one Netgear because of their reviews. I have had Netgear in the past and have liked their products but I was willing to try something different if it was better technology. When I showed the employee the three that I had chosen he immediately went to the Netgear as his first choice because of quality, features, and endurance without breakdowns or problems. You can just install it and almost never have to worry about it again until you need a new one because of necessary updates in technology. I personally chose the Netgear first because it had a good rating, was compatible with Spectrum Internet, and was on sale for my moms budget. I am a dummy when it comes to electronics so I was a little stressed that it would be hard and complicated. Thank God it wasn't! I followed the easy instructions. I downloaded the app. I got the Internet up and running within minutes. I love the app! It has a lot of great features and the process also registered my router at the same time. The password was easy to set up. I love the ability to quickly check my Internet speed and how it has a special feature already installed for daily safety checks. The app has more things that I probably will ever use, but just knowing that I have it there to use and that I can easily get help there brings peace. I would definitely recommend this product to anyone.

After buying this and taking it home, I had to call netgear to walk me through setting it up. Once it was up and running it was great. Faster than my old one, Takes up less space.

Description: NETGEAR router was very easy to setup and works great. No problems with internet. Great not having antennas to worry about. I highly recommend

This router works great, setup is pretty simple, but the app setup they want you to do doesn't give you half as many options as what PC set up does, however it does get it working.
Got this for fiber internet and I'm getting the same Internet speed out from the route as I'm getting in from the fiber modem

Honestly didn't expect much. Old router died and it was on sale. I was pushed towards a app to setup but was able to do so directly and not have to setup an account. I was getting decent speeds but nothing great. All devices were able to connect without issue. Later I noticed increased speed as it adjusted to the best channel which was great. The firmware updated automatically so that was good as well. Overall, very happy with the purchase.
Difficult set up, excellent performance thereafter

The set up process is nothing short of terribly frustrating. That said, once it's set up, it definitely delivers the goods - speed and distance are both exceptional.
