    Works way better than what cable companies give up to use for wifi. I have 10+ devices I use the WIFI for. The router that was given by the cable company slowed down because so many devices were on it. With the Nighthawk it does not do that.

    The router has been working great. I actually had to return the first one because it was defective. It took an hour with customer service to try every different way, but we couldn't get it to work. It took only 10 minutes to set up new one, and it works great.

    The item itself is light and sleek. The antennas do work wonderful. I bought this for long range and faster connection. I can go anywhere in my home and get a great reception. I love the option of 2.4 Ghz and 5.0 Ghz.

    Routers and modems are constantly being improved. I had an old Netgear, not realizing that could be the root of the issues I was experiencing. This one is much faster. It was even recommended by our IT Department.

    We bought this to update our old router and we have really noticed a huge difference in speed and device usage. We are able to stream multiple devices at the same time with no interruptions. Awesome router! Worth every penny!

    A Best Buy rep recommended this wi-Fi router and it truly makes a difference. We use wi-fi on 4-5 devices at a time, and this router keeps everything running smoothly. Just make sure to make room for it. It’s a big router.

    Was having minor issues with computer response time, even considering a new computer. Glad we tried this first, it works very well and has solved the response issues for now. Easy to set up and connect to. Happy with purchase.

    I replaced a working Netgear R6300 which was a great router, with this one. So far this router is performing outstanding. Game playing speeds have doubled and the wireless capabilities out perform the older model. Best move I have made lately.

    Router works great, wired and WiFi. The file server but probably as good as should be expected for a network drive. The print server works ok but you have to re-connect the printer to the router through its software a lot more than I like. You also have to run software in the background to connect both the network drive and printer.

    Bought this to replace an older router that no longer worked. It was easy to set up and had good technical support that I was able to renew once the free service had expired.
