    Sleek new design has a minimalist look and small footprint while still delivering great range of wifi. New wifi 7 speeds are fast if your device accepts it. Handles multiple streaming devices with ease.

    Was easy to connect. Pushing 1,800 megs. The only dislike is the netgear safety program. I don’t want to pay for it. I did not want the 30 day trial. There is not a option to turn off.
