First purchased a different model but had to return it as it was not powerful enough for the whole house. Bought this one instead and am very please with the ease of set up and sale price, plus the extra little bonus right before Christmas was nice!

We were having trouble reaching all areas of our house with our old router. This router with the ability to position each of the antennae towards different parts of the house helped us immensely. No problems with connections now!

This router works very well, I had my wi-fi installed in my she'd because I didn't want the tall wi-fi antenna on my house. I was concerned I might have coverage problems in the house, not so. I have signal in all rooms of the house. Great product.

Easy to set up. Has 5g speed for my smart phone so it is fast & saves me data rate from my phone company. Great range & strong signal for anywhere on my property.

I have had several NetGear routers but this one was pretty well worth the extra expense. It connects every smart phone and tablet quickly, but the gaming systems are kinda sluggish, especially when playing multiplayer games. But other than I love it(:

I had a really old N30 router for the longest time and seeing how many devices we keep getting such as phones, tablets, laptops, consoles etc. it was time to have something that can handle all our request and more. This router is amazing and i can see the difference in performance compared to my old one lol, the set up may look intemdating at first, but it easier than it looks and next thing you know you'll have amazing speeds at home! This router can handle so many devices linked to our wifi, every penny was worth it!

This is a higher end router than I needed, as I don't do much more than surf and email. No streaming anything, no games. But I needed a unit that could serve a large home with many walls between the router and the devices. This one works well for me.

I have my set up in a barn, then that sends to my lil router plug in about 40 feet away. So far so good. seems to send a nice signal. I don't have anything good to say about 5G. Always hard to connect at this distance. I'd skip it on the next one I buy.

For the audio guys.. I used this router to control our Behringer x32 audio console at FOH from the stage via iPad mini at one of our church campuses. This router has great range and works well with configuring the console to work with it if you're knowledgable of setup.

Due to issues beyond my ken, Alex's expertise (from the Geek Squad) resolved the issues and made the purchase of the 3 products (Nighthawk 1900 Router, Roku 1, Powerline 500 [wireless adapter]) work together. Quite satisfied w/ service & products.

I was looking for better coverage for my house. My old router was A Netgear N600 which did a good job for the basement, which is where our "hub" is and the main floor. The problem was poor connectivity on floor two. I opted to upgrade routers to the beam forming technology rather than move our hub to the main floor and I/we have not been disappointed yet. Wi-fi signal is strong on floor two with no breaks in connectivty and admirable speed. My son online games with his laptop and says the difference is night and day with the new router.
I can't comment on all of the features as we have simple needs and I haven't played much with customization. The beam forming technology is the key and really does make a big difference. I stuck with Netgear beause of past reliability. It's not the most expensive router out there but isn't cheap either. I still highly recommend it.

I have had this router for over 2 months. So far it has performed flawlessly. We have notice a speed increase. I love the option to connect a USB hard drive to function as a NAS. It actually works faster than my older seagate NAS drive. I recommend it.

I have owned a nighthawk router before and really liked it. This one is even better and once registered they send you helpful information about how to get the most from your new router. I would definitely recommend this router!

I just recently upgraded from an older apple router and man what a difference. Definitely getting more speed through the wig. When I've checked on the speediest app I'm getting almost my full 60 mbs when I used to only get about half that. I'm also shocked at the range. I keep my router in a utility closet under my stairs and I still get perfect coverage throughout both floors of my house which is almost 4000 sq ft. I even went across the street to the park and still was connected. I was shocked. Couldn't be happier. Wish I had done it sooner.

I thought this was a little expensive, but with my Best Buy points I bought it for $30 dollars less. It worked right out of the box, but make sure you update the firmware first. Make sure you check the Net gear forums to see which firmware to use that is not having any problems. With my old Linksys router my smart TV had problems connecting to the internet and streaming videos, but with the Net gear I have not had any problems and the 5G connection makes it really fast.

We have a two story house and our old router had very poor range and speed. This was reccomended to us by the Best Buy sales rep. and by the Geek Squad tech. that came to the house to help set it up and correct some other issues we were having with one of our computers. They said they used the same one in their homes. It has great range, the router is downstairs in the corner of the house and we have no problems anywhere upstairs getting good reception. It even works great outside on our back patio and yard. We have had no drop outs and the speed has been consistantly good.
