    I purchased this in hopes of replacing my Asus router which lasted about 4 years. This router works great! The speeds seem to be fast, and we have a large number of electronics, including a security system using the wifi. I have had zero dropped signal, or loading issues. The only concerning factor is that The range is not quite as far as I would have hoped. I can stand outside of my garage with a very weak intermittent signal and pick up all of my neighbors wifi, but not mine. This is the only disappointing prt and why it received 4 stars.

    Besides the issue with updating the router, which you have to have a hardware connection to do so, it was worked flawlessly. Super fast connection speed on multiple divices and the same time. Doesn’t miss a beat.

    This is a must for those who’s providers have “not so great service” I have as actually told to buy this from my current internet company and not to buy the pods that plug In around your house as they charge for each of those monthly so I returned my router to the company and saved from paying that and if I ever move or change my mind on current service I own this and it works 100x better

    We kept having problems with our wifi connections in our 3800 sq ft house. Signal would hang up, drop, or be very slow. We went to the local Best Buy & explained our problem to a sales associate, he recommended the Nighthawk. It resolved our issues.

    I used to use a router provided by my cable company until it stopped working properly and I returned it to the cable company. I then went to Best Buy to look for another router that would serve my needs. I purchased this Netgear Nighthawk X6 with the aid of a salesman. This router has unbelievable range and gives me the ability to go outside to the end of my driveway and still get reception. I couldn't get reception with my prior router within my own house, so I am very pleased.

    I'm pretty sure my neighbors could stream a movie on my signal if they could login to my network. I upgraded my internet speeds and have blazing fast wifi in every corner of my house. The Netgear app is awesome. It gives great analytics and the ability to see (and turn on or off) every device connected to it. This is helpful with unknown devices or when the kids need a break! It was simple to setup and control.
