    Out of the box configuration was extremely easy to follow and setup. It's been over 3 weeks since purchase and no instability issues. Dual-Band allows me to segment and prioritize the wireless devices. For multiple user setup, having access issues with USB Port printing on a shared laser printer.

    Upgraded from a TP-Link and this one doesn't need the constant resetting the other one needed. Super fast speeds and I don't get a slowdown when one device is streaming Netflix and the other is playing PS4.

    Not a bad router. Speeds are what they should be (11 mbps upload 114 mbps download on Spectrum). A word of caution, DO NOT rely on firmware auto-update. I had an issue with the Internet connection dropping and having to reset the router. A call to Netgear Support showed tht there was a newer firmware version available even though the 'Auto-Update' said it had the latest version. I manually updated the firmware and issue resolved.

    I bought 2 nighthawk routers. Had poor internet connection in my bedroom, so tech suggested I place one in the bedroom and another in my work room. That did the trick. Great coverage throughout the house.

    I was looking for a solution to replace an existing Netgear WND3600. I needed longer range to give more strength in my basement. This new router sites on our top floor and goes through lots of walls and gives great performance downstairs. Great if you need range!

    We have had this router for almost 2 months and are so happy with the performance. It works so much better than our last set up. We considered buying a more expensive (next step up) router, but the store associate said the expert reviews on this one were better.

    I have noticed a significant increase in the speed in loading of applications on my computer & smartphone & have not had anymore buffering upon streaming videos. I would recomend the NETGEAR R7000 Nighthawk Dual-Band Gigabit Router! It's definately worth the money!

    Good performance in a 3500+ sq ft home. Good signal reaches all of the spots my old system, with an extender, could not reach. I love the genie app for my phone. This feature allows me to check the signal at any time - very cool.

    I haven't finished setup on this yet, but so far its been quite simple. Integrates with the rest of my gear very easily and signal so far is amazing! Segregated channel for my security cameras has greatly increased their reliability as well!

    I have a roughly 3000sqft home and router is at one end of the house but 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi reaches to other end with good strength. 5G doesn't quite reach all the way. Speed and bandwidth are good and reliability has been super for the first month. I have not had to reset a single time. My only complaint it the setup app killed my android Moto G5 phone. After i installed the app my phone would no longer identify or connect to any wifi. After a call to Motorola, I had to reset the phone to factory and reinstall everything. So if you buy this I'd suggest installing without using the app.

    Good range. Is not fully compatible with Skybell. It adds several seconds of lag before doorbell would sync. Tech support from Netgear and Skybell had no fix. Problem resolved with a chance to Linksys router.

    We purchased this router and a new Arris cable modem because the previous two were getting quite old and were not abe to function adequately with more data going through them than before. They both needed to be reset once in awhile and had become a pain. We went to our local Best Buy at Chapel Hill Plaza and I spoke with a sales rep that I respected from previous dealings there. He recommended this brand and model for what we needed and it has performed flawlessly in the two+ months we have had it and all previous problems are gone.

    Coming from my old Linksys E4200, this router is a welcomed upgrade. I love the control that I have over the 2.4 and 5.0 bands. I love the extended range and speed...I like having the map that shows how much link rate is going to each device. Mind you, I'm coming from and old N-Router which was 5-6 years old and had limited controls. Between the 10 wireless devices, and the 4 wired devices, this router never slows....I love it! My internet is also 100mbps down, and 35mbps up...I highly recommend the AC1900 if you stream, game, and have multiple wireless devices.

    So far this router has been a good upgrade from our Belkin. We upgraded our internet package and our old router couldn't handle the higher speeds. The Nighthawk came as a recommendation from a friend that is a long time Best Buy employee. The only issue I have with this router is the range...it's just not that great and not what I expected with a router of this price point. But, that is a minor issue. Otherwise the router has been great. Easy setup. Easy to interface with the router via the app. And it's allowed us to take advantage of our new, faster internet service.

    We had a difficult time with our inksys turning off its security as well as the fact that we could not use our Bluetooth/Pandora by the pool. With the netgear, not only was the installation seamless- the coverage is extensive. Definitely recommend this product!
