Customers are saying

Customers are positive about the product's impressive speed, strong performance, and overall ease of use, including its simple setup and seamless connection. They also appreciate its compatibility, DOCSIS 3.1 support, and affordable price, noting that it operates without lag and stays cool. However, customers are negative about the limited number of ethernet ports and, for some, the signal strength.

    It's doing what it's supposed to do- we will see if it lasts. Netgear support has been absolutely horrid, and I've had multiple products fail outside their 90 day warranty.
