    Netgear Nighthawk routers are the best. Perfect for my office which has 5 security cameras and about 20 computers all pulling IPs. We never ever have a glitch.

    We bought this router for our small office to help support all of the mobile phones and Wi-Fi enabled devices. Our old router could not handle all of the connections and this router seems to struggle too. We often have to restart the router as it jams up and will not accept any more connections. It is supposed to be MiMo but it struggles with all of our devices. It is possible that a future firmware update will remedy this but for now it still struggles with around 32 connected devices. Although I would not recommend this device for the office environment, it should be plenty powerful enough for home use.

    Lightening strike took out our previous router. The set up directions were explained well enough that I could set up myself. Strong signal throughout building.

    I had an older Linksys that I had to reboot every other day. This one works like a champ. 5 family members at a time can stream or surf with no problem.

    Disappointed about the range. For the price I was expecting this router to cover my 2700 sq ft home with no problem. Unfortunately the signal gets weak when I reach the other side of the house. Otherwise, speed is ok.

    I have absolutely no dead spots in a 2400 sq/ft single story home. The unit is placed in one of the corners so it is not centered in the house.

    Easy set up, my cable internet upgraded to a faster speed and my old router did not relay that speed to my computers. This one works great. My house is small, so I can't evaluate it's distance the signal is carried.

    We purchased this because our existing router was not reaching all ends of our big house. It definitely is better now. I have no problem. Running both the Xbox and a 4k stream in a different opposite end of the house.
