Customer Ratings & Reviews

I bought this router for my parents since they were upgrading their services and needed a new router and a middle of the road price range. This does everything it needs to do and have a strong signal throughout their house. This device also has 4 Ethernet connections to have a hard connection for a couple devices. Easy to use and set up and has a nice app to help set up and customize. Nothing special but does what’s needed for its price range. No complaints at this time.

After over 6 years my R7000 finally took a dump. Random drop outs. I tried to upgrade to the latest nighthawk router. The new router kept dropping out. So, I read the reviews about all the routers and found this is still rated at the top of all of the routers all these years later . No mesh required , no need to upgrade it just keeps working. Handles my upgraded 400 mbps cable no problem. I got about 20 devices working no problems.

This thing has been very reliable, overall. And Netgear regularly releases firmware updates! I have over 20+ wifi connected devices in my house and I don't experience issues. I even stream 4K HDR videos without issue. I like the fact that it has a VPN client, too.

WiFi performance is outstanding everywhere in my house. Setup was a breeze. It automatically upgraded its firmware as part of configuration. Wired routing is excellent, yielding top internet rated speed. Kudos to the BestBuy staff for helping select this router.

Easy set up and great speed. Worth the money. Previous router continually needed to be reset. Haven’t had to at all with this new one. The app is handy too.

I bought a router and range extender as I was getting 1 of 5 signal bars in my living room in a moderately large house. I hooked the router up first. It essentially does everything for you but plug in the wires - have had lots of routers, but never one that easy to set up. Once set up.,. full bars! I returned the range extender a few days later without ever opening it. The range of this Nighthawk router is way better than the old D-Link DIR-655. This Nighthawk router is more expensive than others, but well worth the money. Excellent buy.

About a month ago my router gave out on me so I had to go out and buy another one. Did a little shopping around and settled on the Netgear Nighthawk dual band wireless. The install was so simple and quick, all I did was plug it in, install the Netgear genie, a few clicks later done. It was up and running in less than 30 min. And the service I am getting out of it is awesome. None of my tvs freeze or loose connection, no lag what so ever when I'm gaming (console or pc). Was very much worth the buy.

Love my new router, my old router wasn't even close to keeping up with the speed from my modem. Now it's lightning fast and extremely reliable and easy to set up!!!

This Router has allowed us to expand and Improve the range and quality of the Wi-Fi in our home. Our older 'N' router couldn't reach half as far as this router does. Highly recommended to solve many home networking issues.

Replaced 2 Google's mesh wifis with this one unit. I now have a strong signal all over the house with 200+mb download speeds and no delay on Netflix.

The NETGEAR Nighthawk AC1900 Smart Wi-Fi Router is a high-performance and reliable router that delivers excellent Wi-Fi coverage, speed, and features. Its user-friendly setup process, dual-band capability, advanced QoS, and robust security make it an excellent choice for homes and small offices. If you're looking for a router that can handle the demands of today's connected world, the Nighthawk AC1900 is definitely worth considering.

Have had this for about 2 months and I am extremely happy with it. I have 10 or more devices hooking up to it and no drop signals and speed is great. I had a combo unit before and it can not come close to what this one does.

I recently moved to a different ISP and their modem had an integrated router included. Even though we went from 3mbs to 12mbs speed, our streaming experience was horrible with low quality pictures and intermittent drops of programing. Even worse, our web browsing was slower and sometimes lost connection. I purchased the Nighthawk and placed the modem in bridge mode and instantly saw a major difference. Web pages popped to the screen in a blink of the eye and web searches were lighting fast. We were now able to stream HD content from our roku with minimal wait time and no buffering during the remainder of the show. Compared to other routers I've had, the signal range of the NightHawk is far superior. The router is located on the opposite side of the house from our entertainment system, but we can still get full bars for signal strength and have no problems streaming content. The dual bands provided by the router let's all my devices, old and new, take advantage of whatever bands they can handle, and I've not had one device drop from our home network. Adding a USB hard drive is as simple as just plugging it in to the router, then you can access the drive over your network by just mapping to it. Now, there is no reason to NOT backup your critical data. On the down side, if you want to set up dynamic DNS, Netgear does provide a way to do that, but I found the process to be way too complicated and the documentation on how to do it didn't go into enough detail. Also, the Netgear genie app seemed more showy than actually helpful to me. All in all, I feel this router has a great deal to offer in speed, range and quality of service. For the price it certainly delivers on its promise.

It's a great overall AC Router. I love the ability to customize router and the smart wi-fi feature. I don't play games so i made streaming a priority. The software can also tell me if someone is on the network that is not supposed to be.

I do have fiber in my house for internet. The router gives me what i need throughout the entire house and the spedd still awesome. Up to 60 mbps and 3-4 devicea all at once. I thought it was expensive at first, but after 3 months aprox. Dont regret it at all

This is the only router that would allow wifi access from all areas of my home. Don't buy extenders or boosters.....this router is worth the price considering it's ability. I have it located on the main floor of my two story home...wifi is available even in the attic and basement.

Connectivity is instant and delivering superb wifi speed. Genie app is also great. Only issue I have been facing is with the range. With 2-3 walls and within 40 feets, wireless devices get disconnected. Not sure if something related to settings. Currently on default firmware. Overall satisfied with my purchase.

We have 14 wireless components hooked up to our home wireless network which was crippling the speed of our built in Verizon router/modem. As such, we purchased this remote router and have been very, very pleased with its speed and signal strengths. The speeds generally maintain the same speed rating as the wired Verizon service! The signal strength is enough to cover the back yard.

Excellent product. Had no problems setting it up, and instructions were easy to follow

This router is easy to set up right out of the box. Works perfectly through out our two story home, and in the basement too. Also strong signal outside.
