    Works great for us! We were experiencing continued buffering and dropped connections. This has corrected those issues.

    Title: Super-duper! Description: It's only been a few days, but now that I have the bugs worked out elsewhere, I'm cruz'n along at lightning speed! I had my old Netgear wifi for 16 years, and just upgraded (only to discover the reason for the issues had nothing to do with the Netgear equipment). Help Agents are very helpful and patient for this non-techie gal also.

    Easy setup. Fast internet both upload and download. Increased upload speed by almost 10x over older nighthawk. Provides adequate signal strength to reach basement corner from opposite end of 42' first floor location. Eliminated need for signal extender.

    all though I'v used Netgear through out the years, I had trouble with this one using the app to set it up. end results talk to support for 1 1/2 hrs to get it up and running. He told me to ck if I could get on the internet and sitting in front of my laptop I got on and said thanks. Tried to get the tv and no luck. Frustration set in at that time and and I put the old one back so I could get back on line. Lesson when you can't get on line. ck what network your on, may be it wasn't the router and the difficulty I had with the set up, was me in the end but still hard to set up with the app. To be fair I needed support 2 times with the router I have now . Apps that are buggy will drive you crazy,also Googles ai gave me a generic answer, close but !!!

    Great buy! Stellar coverage and speeds for the price point, combined it with a nighthawk range extender to cover the whole house in speeds comparable to what I get from a hardline. Set up was also easy peasy. Works flawlessly with my spectrum internet

    Bought this because Optimium cable keeps going up, had their equipment to hook to their cable for 3 years, so I could pay more or buy my own. This is excellent! Called Optimium, they connected me right up, Netgear had to call me back and help me reset their password, needed a capital letter & a %$?, they reset my password for for me! great product, company, an people they employee

    Description: For it's price point, it's an excellent WiFi 7 router. I was already about to purchase it, but this particular model went on a black Friday special as well. As with most people, Internet service was starting to charge for equipment rental and as I like to keep monthly expenses down, I decided to get my own equipment again. Setup is easy and straightforward. I only had one big issue that wasn't on the router per se. I spent around 5 hours on the phone and off trying to get service going through my new modem and router and determined the modem was just fine and wasn't the issue. The router just wouldn't connect to the Internet, wired or wireless. At first I could connect to the router through my cellphone. But shortly after, it would glitch out trying to load the router settings/setup page. I knew it was in the settings and I needed to change an address around, but couldn't access that. I told my ISP to turn back on the old modem/router(theirs) while I figured a solution. I plugged the old back in and wired the Netgear into it. Within seconds, the app notified me that it changed the address to match the providers service. Then it started to update the firmware. After giving it a bit, I reconnected it and everything was working. My ISP is Optimum by the way My advice to anyone else is to just plug it into your current service if you can and let it update and possibly alter any settings it needs to automatically so you don't need to have a goose chase like I did.

    I moved and needed to provide my own router. When I couldn't find my old Netgear, I decided to buy a new one. And I know... old tech doesn't keep up. But I'm glad I got this new router with WiFi 6, it's so much faster than the WiFi 5 that my other provider came with. I use it with my roommate in a 1,200 sq ft apartment. We both can stream movies or work from home with no latency issues. I think it's a great choice for the price.

    I bought mine for $120. It was $99 the next day on Netgear. The new RS100 is also now available for the same price. Needed my cell phone and a QR scanner to set it up. Also my LAN light is red but I don't know why. There are no diagnostics.

    I was having trouble with the equipment from t-mobile providing adequate coverage and was experiencing a lot of signal drop out. I got this to replace their gear and it was extremely easy to setup, and also covers the whole house without any mesh access points needed. Really like the app that goes along with it as well and the ability To setup Guest WiFi!

    Bought this to replace a 3 y/o router that was being discontinued with support. Does what I need it to do, so far so good. Only problem is that Netgear firmware doesn't allow devices on the guest network to see each other without allowing them to see your personal network.
