    Been using this for just under a year. I had an Asus before this and I loved that. There are so many more options in the settings to tweak with allowing me configure everything on my network. Great, strong, and far signal even through walls. Very easy to setup and manage with the Blackhawk app (even remote management)

    Almost everything I do involves the internet... so spending an extra 50 or 100 dollars on the best Router available is a wise investment as I see it. I thought I HAD the best router until the Geek Squad guy corrected me and suggested the Nighthawk. He was right. No more trouble getting Apple TV in the outside pool area (far from the router and extender). Thanks Geeks!

    Easy to setup and connect to. Having some difficulty with connecting things like camera's etc due to firewall ports between the regular router and this external one.

    I'll start with the design it's sleek but it's pretty large, enough to set aside space for it. Set up was easy to connect to the modem and then connecting to the router. Configuration was easy to navigate through. Only complaint I have is the three antennas on the back. It doesn't do a good job staying in place. Just a small force is required to loosen it from the back. By small I mean really small. Not ideal if it gets accidentally bumped from the back.

    Good speeds, good range. Running connected to gigabit internet. Have on first floor of 2 story home. Get solid speeds throughout basement and 2nd floor (300 Mbps). Have had a few issues where it seems to go down when my kids connect their Chromebooks for school. Probably 5 occurrences over a month.

    I added this to my time warner router. I was getting lots of WiFi drops and dead spots. After hooking this up I get great coverage through out the house and much more reliable connection. We use it for Xbox, tablets, phones, rokus, etc. We noticed a considerable improvement in speeds and overall connection strength. We have a 2800sqft two story house in a densely populated neighborhood.

    Best thing I did was switching from a modem router combo to independents of each.. This wifi router has been running flawlessly for about 6 weeks now and there's nothing I can say bad about it... I cut out cable just before this purchase and it handles streaming on 2 tvs, our security system, thermostat, tablets, echo dot along with phones and lights

    Upgraded Home Network.

    Needed to upgrade my network infrastructure to support streaming of music to a network audio player. This Netgear router filled the bill in two very important areas. One, by providing greater range and throughput, essential for streaming music via wireless connection at CD or better quality. And two, and just as importantly, allowing me to use a relatively inexpensive external hard drive plugged into its USB 3.0 port as a NAS (networked attached storage). I've been using this setup for over a month now to stream music via wireless connection to a Bluesound Node. Pros: Does the Job. Improved throughput for the entire network. NAS support. Very good and helpful Netgear phone support. Cons: As all the reviews will tell you - its a big sucker, takes up a lot of desk real estate. Documentation, in my opinion is a little lacking, especially in the area of utilizing network attached storage, but to their credit Netgear support was very helpful in overcoming this shortcoming. Overall I'm very happy and would rate this product at 4.5 stars.

    I had a really out dated router that kept dropping wifi signal. Since I switch to this router I haven't had any lost connection. Worth the money!!

    Now they come out with a wireless router that is so easy to setup. Where was this back in the day when I started messing with them? Super simple and great distant. Not to sure how fast it is yet due to older computers and limited internet here in the country. I have 4G now and I don't see any upgrades in the near future. If your looking for a new wireless router, give this one a try.

    Bought this after having very slow internet. Download and upload speeds have improved considerably as well as loading games and streaming in HD. Very happy with this product. Took a quick minute to setup, but worth it and pretty easy if you just follow the directions on the Nighthawk App.

    Didn’t want to rent from our provider (Spectrum). Read a lot of great reviews for this product and it did not disappoint. We are able to get the Internet speed that we pay for. Easy set up and no issues. Pairs well with our Netgear modem. Would highly recommend.

    I actually have bought two of these wireless routers. I first bought one for my home and then for my parents. They were having issues with dropped signals and not very good range with there old system. The nighthawk has wonderful range and works while many devices are connected. My parents and I can facetime with no lagging or video issues. Great product. Can't recommend it enough.
