    This Router is amazing. I can connect to WiFi in every inch of my house. The previous routers always had deadspots, but this router is the solution.

    Worth The Money

    I have tried boosters/extenders and other routers but this one has been worth the money. It is more expensive than some of the others but I've had great luck with it. The main thing I wanted was to use it to extend my range out to the pool area so I could use Apple Air Play to run my outside speakers and it does it perfectly where others were continually dropping out.

    Solved my WIFI issues

    My family had been experiencing slow internet connections. We were constantly having to disconnect and reconnect to WiFi on our cell phones. Given that my router was only 3 years old or so and to date had no issues I figured the problem was with my Comcast internet. I did have an issue with the cables coming into my home, so those were replaced and then I upgraded to a faster internet speed. Problem not solved...so I but the bullet and after much research I chose this router and am I glad I did. I have a family of four, live in a three story 2500 sq ft home in an inner city and with at least 14 devices connected via WiFi (includes a gaming PC). Since I've had this router (about4 weeks) we have had no wifi issues. HIGHLY recommend. This router has no trouble handling our WiFi traffic.

    Owned for a while now, and it's been excellent. Although not wifi 6, I still get the same speeds as if wired. I have 200 mbit service, I'll get up to 225m mbit wifi speeds on 5ghz. We all know you can't beat wired internet, but this is an excellent option. Easy firmware updates using the app or a pc. If you use a free wifi analyzer app, you can find a channel that less neighbors are using. Seems to work for me, if I notice intermittent slowdowns, to change channel. Being a 3 channel unit, you have two 5ghz channels for tvs and gaming, and a 2ghz channel for phone and tablets. The 2ghz channel is plenty fast, and streams great as well. It's a safe buy, you'll be happy, and it looks pretty cool. REMEMBER, YOUR BOTTLENECK IS YOUR ISP. If you have a 200mbit plan, that's what you'll get. Routers just put up a signal. So if it says "up to 1000gbps", you'll only get what your ISP gives you. 200+mbit for me.

    We were using a belkin n1 router and had tremendous amount of connectivity issues. We purchased the nighthawk in hopes for better performance. I must say we are well pleased. Awesome fast connection no dropped signals on either band. With using as many as 9 devices and never yet a problem of any sort. I do have to add that my shop is roughly 100 ft away and I use wireless phone laptop and printer perfectly fine. Highly recommend this Router

    This router replaced an older Netgear product that often needed to be rebooted. I was leary about getting another Netgear product even though it was highly recommended by the salesman. I'm glad he convinced me to give it a try. Haven't had to reboot it at all and the available bandwidth far surpasses the old one.

    Excellent coverage and wireeless speeds went from 3 node mesh wifi to this 1 router 2700 sq foot home 2 story highly recommend for great wifi coverage and speeds. Easy set up just create Netgear account and accept terms of service first or you will not have internet until you do.

    I love this item,the signal strength is great. The only thing that I would say is that it is a little hard to set up. Other than that it works great.

    Installation fine but don’t take quick installation because you lose a lot of fine tuning capabilities. Works great for us with good coverage.

    Old router was getting weak and not hitting all areas in our 4000 sq ft home. Bought this one. Was easy to swap with old router. Works great, Great wi-fi service all over the house and outside. Only drawback is it takes up more room on my desk but that little inconvenience is worth it, especially when the grand kids visit with their tablets.
