    We have a lower level (to our home) that cannot be accessed from INSIDE the main floor. We have to go out onto the patio & down the stairs to get to the lower level. Because of that the Wi-Fi, Roku, and Internet wouldn't work well (sometimes not at all). Some research showed we probably needed a new, more powerful router - and this one fit the bill. It has worked great for about a year or so (not sure when I bought it), and still working very well. The sales people at Best Buy were great too - explaining all this techy stuff to us Seniors! LOL! They answered all our questions, as well. Very pleased with this router, and the staff at the store!!! I was able to install it with no problem also, as the instructions were easy to understand.

    I went through three routers before this. The 2400 and even one a step above this one. This one worked the best. I game and this works in a 2000 sq foot house with heavy wood doors.

    I had really poor wifi using my cable provider’s equipment. This changed the game. Way better signal further away from my router. Highly recommend.

    Works great. Took very little time to set up. The hardest part was finding the best spot to put it because the back antenna's only rotate one direction so needed to find the best spot to put it to cover entire home.

    Was going to get the competitor's similar product, but it was sold out. Saw this but from previous experience didn't think much about netgear. Decided to try it out and sure am glad I did!

    I havent upgraded my wifi router for 6 years. Down loads we taking forever and i blamed it on the cable company when in fact it was my old router. I know that now downloads don't lag, streaming doesn't buffer. It's great.

    Bought due to the size of house and proximity to the router. Works well for main floor and upstairs. Basement still need a booster but the computer attaching is down one floor and the other side of the house.
