Wanted to extend wifi range to basement

I really needed to extend my wifi range in my home and at the same time increase speeds to multiple devices at a time. I am not going to get you bogged down in technical jargon. Also got this with arris surfboard to get rid of Spectrum modem fee. Bottom line, this worked. 3000 square feet home, in room over garage, fast speeds in basement for streaming movies. Seems to reach far with signal and I like the app, allows you to control content on devices (parenting ipads) etc. Only con I would say are the flashing lights are ridiculously bright in a bedroom. I had to put electrical tape on them to calm them down!

I bought this router as the one I had before was not cutting it anymore. I was having issues with my TV's not being able to stream 4k consistently and would not have good internet connectivity from phones and tablets. So after reading reviews on the nighthawks and hearing about them from friends I decided it was time to get one. I am very impressed with how fast it is. Now there is 0 buffering on our tv's while streaming 4k and you can be in the back yard and still have full wifi connectivity. This router is a beast and highly recommend it to anyone who needs a router upgrade. This thing will not dissapoint.

I've had different routers over the years and this one is by far the best. It provides great coverage for our 2,800sq/ft house, and has been fairly easy to administrate.

So far this router is working great. It covers my whole house and we can stream on several devices at the same time. It's a little pricey but so far it's been worth it .

I bought this to replace my ac1900. 1900 was great but I just have alot of wireless devices connected. It has given me enough range that my wifi cameras are connecting from 150' away outside. Price is a bit over the top though.
