    Very easy to setup. Like you can name devices and pause and schedule them too. The app is pretty good to use very minimal need to go into device directly.

    So far works exactly as intended. I have a 3100sqft home and even with the router being setup in the master bedroom it provides full WiFi throughout the house without an extender.

    Best router I’ve ever owned! Works perfectly with my bad internet service. Without this router I wouldn’t be able to play video games. You can also control it completely through a convenient app on your phone or computer!

    I've been using this router for over a month already and I have no complaints. Definitely a major upgrade from my old router and the one supplied by my service provider (Cox Panoramic WiFi Modem/Router). I have about 16 devices connected to the WiFi at the same time. Including smart light bulbs, a video doorbell, an air purifier, smart alarm clock, and the usual suspects. Everything connected and worked perfectly compared to my experience with other routers. I am overall very happy with my purchase and I am hoping this product last me for as long as I own it.

    This was a no brainer for me. Either pay the internet company 15$/month for their terrible router or buy this Nighthawk router and have my own equipment. Super easy to set up and even easier to change band names and passwords.

    Bought this router to replace the one we had. We have two Xbox’s and before one would constantly lag while the other one worked fine. Now that we have this router we are able to play with both Xbox’s working wonderfully!

    This router worked amazing and the speed is great just wasn’t strong enough for my house. If they made it to cover a slightly larger sqft I would have switched to that.

    This is a wonderful router. Have air ducts everywhere in my split level and it just clips the signal. This busts through all of that giving me 5 bars just about everywhere. Very good throughput.

    Had to upgrade from an old netgear I had to another gaming one and was recommended by my worker. I can feel the difference in speed and the signal strength. I like the design on this one. Looks like a UFO!
