Easy set up with the app, took less than 30 minutes.

The dual-band feature allows faster speeds than before, and this router allows greater coverage area in my home. The downside is that my printer was not dual-band compatible, which required buying a new one

This was purchased as a replacement for another Wi-Fi that didn’t last 2 years. My first Netgear lasted almost 10 years,wasn’t available when I purchased my last Wi-Fi, but once that quit, we decided to go back to Netgear. Their on line people will also patiently help you too, it you have trouble setting up. We didn’t have a problem.

Ive had an older nighthawk router for 8 years and was needing to be upgraded. This router works perfectly and ive 100% noticed a better signal/speed performance. Hope this last just as long!

Very easy to setup, the app that goes along with the router guides you through each part of the process - including if you need updated firmware. Very pleased with this purchase - streaming has been smooth as ever and speeds are through the roof.

Easy setup, great coverage and nice security features. Got this to replace TP Link since that company is under federal investigation and may be banned from the US

Pretty solid router and fairly easy to setup. The app makes it easier to use and ensure that everything is working well. Glad the trade-in deal was an option.

Was looking for something better than the router that my internet provider’s standard service router. Asked for recommendations and read reviews and found this router. It performs well and meets my standards, definitely better than Spectrum’s default router. I have about 10 devices running off of it at any given time and have had no issues. I play games on my PC and have the PC hardwired to it, and am able to play without any issues while all my other devices are connected to and using the wireless internet.

Purchased for a friend. Installation was very simple, and the system came up without any issues.
We did need to reconnect most of the devices after the install, even though the SSID was changed to the previous network name.
The friend is extremely pleased with the noticeable improvement in speed and range from the previous router.

In the shortest terms, I have no complaints. It works well and reliably, and setup was very easy*. It has the standard amount of Ethernet ports, reboots fairly quickly, and works well with Mediacom's 1gb internet package. It's a well-made, powerful router. You get what you pay for, and you pay a lot for this.
It's also enormous compared to my old router and has no particularly stable way to sit other than upright as the pictures show, but that's my fault for not looking at the size specifications.
*The instructions for setup were 'download our app'. That's it. No manual setup process provided in the least. And while the app did make it extremely easy, it also wants to be invasively active on my phone all the time, and added an inescapable 30 day limited trial of online protection that I don't want and can't remove until 30 days are up. I needed to go back and remove all of the permissions that the app required post-installation. And, of course, everything required an account. Feels very smart home oriented, for the folks that need to be able to check that their internet is working just fine whilst on vacation miles away.
I might be an old man shouting at clouds here, but this all feels real gross on all counts, folks. At the very least, I hope it means I wont have to buy another for quite some time.
