    Switched a hotel to fiber for guest internet and the older equipment wasn’t cutting it. This powerful router brought out the best in switching over to fiber!

    Great router with fast speeds, however the range is something to be desired. I had a split level home and in some rooms the connection strength is weak, which affects some devices.

    I had a decent Netgear router before this which worked fine except lately it seemed like with all the streaming we do it was acting out - devices would get disconnected or would show "no internet". There were no new firmwares available so i decided to try an updgrade. I've never bought a router of this type before, this used to be considered "gaming" but what a difference this router has made. We have 1 PC connected at all times to a security system that streams and saved videos, we have a roku and xbox (both used heavily for streaminG) plus multiple tablets and smartphones and it's handling all of it without a hiccup. The set up instructions are straightforward, did require a firmware update.

    My router is set up on one end of my house which is very long. The signal has to pass through or around brick walls and I've had no problem with that.

    Had to replace my WiFi router, and saw the specs on this one. Very much worth the cost, I get full coverage in my home and even a couple houses away. Would recommend this for anyone who relies on home WiFi

    This is my third router, the previous had an extender and it was ok but this one is great! I'm not a geek but I set it up without help and it was easy even for me. I'd give it 6 stars if I could.

    Needed the extended WiFi range for D-Limk cameras at our barn, Sonos speakers anywhere we need them now, out in the garden, at the barn, etc. Excellent speed boost over our previous older Nighthawk. A+++

    We have a 2800 sq ft house with 4 to 8 people using wifi at any given time, we were running into problems getting kicked off or not available messages. Then we got the 3200 and haven't had a problem since!

    The router gave me enough range to access the internet from not only downstairs in the basement but also from outside at least several feet away from the house. And great connection.
