Downloaded app, selected setup new device, scanned the QR code and was connected. I was able to login in via ip address and set things up as I wanted. Coverage and speed is good so far.

I've been using this router for a while now, and I'm really happy with it. It's super easy to set up, even for someone like me who's not a tech expert. My wifi coverage is so much better than it was with my old router. Plus, the speed is amazing – I can stream movies and play games without any lag. It's also really reliable; I haven't had any connection issues since I switched. Honestly, for the price, you can't beat it. I'd definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a good, solid router.

I have very strong connectivity on all my devices. I love controlling the router with the app on my phone. I have two desktop gaming, PCs, a gaming laptop, two iPhones, a ring doorbell, two iPads, and two Apple TVs connected. The performance of this router is amazing.

Have been using netgear routers for many years. Swapping from an older AX5200 to this BE6500 we went from 900mbps down/ 60mbps up to 2300+ mbps down/70+ mbps up!! Wish i would have bought sooner! Was $229 at time of purchase which is phenomenal for the preforamce and functionality. The nighthawk app is easy to use and free. Just cant beat netgear routers!

Good router range weaker then older router works great for gaming and running Wyze cameras off it. Can't get my garage door to sync to it. Might be due to location in my house. But my older router reached it in the past. Do have a oil furnace chimney maybe messing with signal. Also annoying there is a paywall for monitoring features for parents. Luckily have other ways to monitor internet traffic.

It is working pretty good for my 1200 square foot home. The only issue I have is I had to put on the top shelve of the stand it's on. It wasn't reaching my upstairs TV very well or camera on the garage until I put it on the top shelve.

I am extremely pleased with my RS200! It arrived quickly and was easy to install and set up. My ISP provides 1Gbps and am registering 925 Mbps for downloads and 536 Mbps for uploads. I have a two story home and had no issues connecting all of my devices, including a home standby generator at the opposite end the house and on the basement level. I highly recommend the RS200 - excellent product and great price!

Very happy with this purchase. We were in need of replacing our outdated router. The nighthawk offers an extremely user friendly APP allowing to control the VPN and devices that attempt to connect your network. It also offers superior parental controls via user friendly UI that anyone could quickly learn. The latest WiFi 7 speed is outstanding too!!!

Netgear nighthawk BE-6500 router works pretty well, but sometimes disconnects from older models, TVs and appliances. Also upload speed fluctuates on a daily basis. Other than that it’s a pretty good router would’ve gave it a five star if it wasn’t for these things that I just mentioned.

I previously had a 13 year old R6200 Netgear router that finally gave up the ghost. Did my research and found this one to my liking. Based on my last router I am hoping this last just as long given the workmanship and quality of the products

Recently bought a high definition smart TV and the Netgear Nighthawk has provided great reception. No pixilation or connection issues. a great addition if you have a high def smart TV.
The only issue was I could not use my old password which required having to reset all of my smart devices!
