    I bought a new router because I gave my older one to my daughter who recently bought a house. So far the router does what it claims to do. I have had no issues and glad I made the update. It also lets to control the router through an app on your phone. Which is useful if you chose to use it.

    I got this for a new house. It works well now, but it was a pain to set up and reset itself so I had to set it up several times. It does have a qr code you can show to someone to get them onto your network which is nice

    I have two of these routers at home linked as a bridge and they perform fantastically. I have 14 wireless delving connected to both of them throughout the day and all I can say is that it handles anything and everything I throw at it. I even bought it to upgrade my office network with.

    Took care of a few dead spots in our home. Much better reception on smart tv's without cable (no buffering or poor quality) Able to handle upgrade in internet connection.

    With the telephone support this router was easy to install. Once it was installed I noticed significant improvement in the throughput of my network. Definitely a good value.

    I was urged to get this router by my video-gaming boyfriend and we are so happy! I recently got a 4K TV and it just made sense to boost our internet connection. YouTube and Netflix have been super enjoyable due to the quality of picture.

    This router is very good for gaming and streaming. I had an outdated Belkin that took forever to stream on my TV,now it takes just seconds. If you need a new router I would definitely recommend this one,the netgear nighthawk AC1900.

    A great router ; however, updating the software is not automatic. You receive a email stating there is an update and how to install it. It will not work and you will be calling customer service. The good news is that the call is free for the first 90 days

    I run 11 devices at home, 2 gaming consoles, heavy work laptop and various netflix, YouTube, phone/iPad users. This replace my AirPort Extreme and has better connectivity and distance. I just did not like having to make two different IDs for 5.5 and standard Wi-Fi

    Works Well, Annoying Start-up Though

    Out of the box, you need to connect this to your laptop via hardwire. This step is annoying because most internet companies will not help you with this step and they might act confused as to why the router is not broadcasting the signal. After you get the network setup, it works fine.

    Wow. Before I had a WiFi router from another famous brand, but my connection was very poor. After installing this model, now I can access the Internet on all my devices with a great performance, using almost all the time the limit of what my service provider grant to me.

    Great buy! We purchased this router during early pandemic times, when everyone started to work and go to school from home. It allowed us to use about 14 devices at once with no issues.

    I should have asked, but assumed it would be backward compatible for various WAP security protocols. I learned after buying that it won't easily handle older security methods, and WinXP does not easily support the newer ones. But that's just the nature of technology - especially when it comes to security.
