Small glitch setting up, but overall easy setup. Works great. Larger home which is why I purchased this one. Have always used Linksys before but lately have had so many connection issues, so I switched.

Tried upgrading to a linksys but had issues with it. Replaced that with this one and it has worked great, no issues, and performs up to expectations.

Pay for 150 mbs and get 180 thru most of the house when on 5g frequency. Best router I've ever had.

The last router we had did not work very well. This one seems to be able to be useful throughout our entire house instead of just near the router itself. So far we are very pleased with our purchase.

I was happy that I spent the extra money on a better unit. Like many people now everyone in my house has a device that needs to be on line. This unit handles it very nicely when at least 6 units are on line.

I purchased this to replace my Netgear R7000 and it did not disappoint. While the range was comparable (same coverage area) to the R7000, it was able to handle upward of 20 devices easily. I upgraded thinking it would be more stable to handle 3 XB1s and PS4 simultaneously. It handles my devices without issue, The interface is the same Netgear interface they've been using for a few years. The Genie mobile app is a nice feature to access your basic router settings and view your network map. I'd recommend this router if you are looking for advanced functions and features. For the price, most people would think it's overkill, but I'm not most people. Overall, I'm satisfied with the router...for now.

Even though Spectrum limits us to 100MB, it works well for multiple devices throughout house. Wish it was affordable to get fiber at 1G to see what this 2G plus device could do. Easy to install.

I needed a router that would give me better service with all my wifi devices hooked in. This router did the job and was easy to set up.
