    This is the second Nighthawk x6 router i have owned. The first one fried in a power interruption. Somebody should have replaced it, but alas it was me. This time I got the replacement plan that covers anything. But it is truly a great piece of equipment. No problems ever.

    Went to bestbuy to find a router that would not inly extend the range but also increase the speed that comcast says "they can get up to". Once i put the router in it actually exceeded my speed capacity comcast provided. Be sure to turn the comcast router into a modem only, in order to maximize the routers potential.

    We needed to upgrade our network router and found this for a great price. We as a family are always on our laptops, tablets, playstation 4 and cell phones. We needed a router that can handle the heavy usage. We've been using it for a few weeks and it's very stable.

    Looks like something out of an alien movie, but it works fine. Don't notice faster Wi-Fi, but the former device was adequate for our current speed. The fact that it's capable of much greater does my device wasn't capable of was the decisive factor in making this purchase (we intend to upgrade soon)

    Wanted to get a router for gaming. Purchased this because it has three different bands to connect your devices to. We have our mobile phones and tablets on one band, two laptops on another, and the third is for my PS4. With the multiple bands, it really cut down the lag time and loading. Would recommend.

    as a router of this caliber, i expected a lot. i used the ac1900 in the past but needed an upgrade. i did not get as good a connection as i use to on my old router. with that said, easy to use interface as per usual. decent connection, but could be better

    This is a pretty sweet tri-band Nighthawk modem and the app is pretty awesome as well! Plug and play pretty much! Pair this with the CM2000 and you will be streaming, gaming, surfing like no tomorrow!!

    I bought this Jan of 2016. Never updated the firmware. It’s now Jan of 2021 and I’m only now having issues. I’d say I got my money’s worth. Solid product. It’s so old now that I can’t update it. Keep up with the firmware updates

    Fast and flexible. When I have a gathering and too many people get on my network (because I'm nice), I can easily login to the App and secretly disable anyone from being on WIFI! Might seem low but I have to update my Fantasy Football Scores. :)

    I had connection issues with my prior router. The salesman helped explain the functions of this router and carefully went over the layout of my house to ensure proper coverage. I have had no issues so far. Humorous passwords

    Worked right out of the box, I wanted to upgrade my wireless network and this thing came with extra features I wasn't even aware of. I was able to convert my external HDD into a network media storage/streaming device wirelessly (obviously the usb to the router is wired) to all my other devices.

    I tried a less expensive and capable working router model from a different maker and B.B. was professional about returning it. After some serious research I finally found and purchased the one I really needed in this unit.

    I score this a 4.5 but only let me do 4. I previously purchased this router about 3 yrs. ago and hasn't let me down. This will be my 2nd one for my parents though and price has gone down so that is a plus. Full 5 stars if it had a slightly better range. Reach is great just doesn't cover my driveway.
