Customer Ratings & Reviews

If you are looking for a new, high-performance consumer-level router, I can't imagine more value than what you'll find in this one. It's simply got everything a standard home user needs, plus advanced options for those that need a little more. Netgear has come a long way since their early days and they've since risen to the top three in both consumer and business networking. I honestly can't say how impressed I am with them recently.

If you have high speed internet, you need this router. My old netgear router couldn't keep up and they wear out in acouple of years. This router handles all my wired and wireless equipment with ease.

performs as needed with 4 adults in the household, there is a lot of heavy internet traffic. Two artists, a highschool teacher and an RN using it almost to capacity...actually it is more than enough!

the signal strength and speed are great and it was an easy setup. we run 8-9 devices and no issues.

I use this router at home and work this is by far one of the best routers I have used since I've had issues with my comcast router. I highly recommend this router to anyone looking for great speed.

This product helped us out quite a bit, we live in the country so high speed internet isnt really an option. But it lets us stream Netflix while my son games. Something I wasnt able to do before.

easy to set up, has not dropped a computer yet, and get coverage in the outside garage on the other end of the house

Bought this to upgrade from an older netgear router. This router has improved the signal range in my house by a ton and is very fast. I should have bought this a long time ago!

When I bought this device I had guest staying in the house. Two Kindles, online video game, DVRs, and 4 smart phones and my desktop still was lightning fast over the WiFi. I measured download speeds of 26Mbs on over WiFi, the same as I had directly over the broadband. And it works everywhere in my multi level house.

My wireless speed went from 15 mbps to 121 (yeah 121!) when I switched to this router from cheap leased Comcast one. I was paying Comcast for high speed and certainly not getting it. Enough said.

Very easy to setup, and very fast. Has a very wide range, reaches both my back yard & basement with plenty of power.

Handles 4k network streams from netflix with no problems, has usb 3.0 connectivity for adding network storage. The unit is a bit large but it does well. I have always had Netgear routers, and expect this one to hold up to my daily usage for the next few years. Also you can flash the bios to use DD-WRT if you like. If you don't need that I find the Netgear genie software to be more than adequate for my needs.

Great router, awesome coverage, fast speeds, easy setup. Get. This. Router.

I've used various versions of this model over the past 7 years and it's just a great router with great coverage. I use it as an access point, and one of the features they added was combining the 2.4 and 5GHz bands such that the router will determine which channel is best for the connected user, seamlessly, much like today's consumer mesh systems. Netgear managed to make a very good product better!

I'm a netgear guy....have bought nothing but netgear routers and never had any problems with their products. The range is very good on my 1600 square foot house and it does what its suppose to.

Been using this router for about 9 months now and I love it. No issues and can handle all the devices I throw at it. Which is about 15 all at once.

We've burned through quite a few routers over the years but this one seems to be a tank. Once we had it dialed in and setup our fiber line it's been feeding all our streaming devices without too much struggle. Maybe once a month or so we do need to hard restart but not certain that's the routers fault and doesn't make us like it less.

Works very well and higj speed is awesome with this unit

I have quite a few Wi-Fi devices in my house (computers, tablets, Blu-ray players and a Roku) and I wanted strong and reliable Wi-Fi coverage throughout our house for both the 2.4 and 5k bands. I wanted Netflix playback to be solid and smooth at all of the locations in my house. The R7000 fits the bill perfectly. It provides more than enough coverage on both bands to easily cover my house. More importantly the signal is just as fast as a wired connection. I have Comcast Blast and I usually see 59mbps over a wired connection but with the R7000 is get the same speeds over wireless. Now if Comcast would ever offer more speed in the Twin Cities market... I HIGHLY recommend the R7000 Nighthawk.

Easiest router I have ever setup. The instructions are clear and concise. The performance is incredible. My previous Linksys router (2.5 years old) would frequently drop a device if many devices were on the network. This router hasn’t dropped a single device. Would recommend this router to anyone that has many devices across both bands
