Customer Ratings & Reviews

This router replaced the R7000 and so far has performed perfectly. The signal is strong, it supports multiple devices without performance issues. There is on average 8 separate devices connected.

Great product. Easy setup. Speed amazing. You do have to download an app to set it up. I didn't know that, but it was very easy.

Good router- overall good coverage of my house overall

The router is an excellent value, and I've been very happy with the range and the coverage. It's worked very well with two people in the house using it, although neither of us does any gaming - we do streaming. The setup, however, was tricky. I'm pretty good at following setup prompts, but this went into a loop where I had to start over twice, and then I just jumped steps and got there anyway. Also - The related app seemed like overkill, as well. Once I finally got it set up, I have had zero problems with the operation, so I'm very happy with the router, just hope I don't ever have to reset it.

This is about as close to future proofing as you can get at the moment. A little pricey, but if you have a lot of tech running on wifi, it really allows for everything to run smoothly

I bought this because it was on sale at Best Buy, and because I needed a fast router. Also because all my network equipment is Netgear, and it is good to stick with a brand so everything works better together. We are paying for fast internet, and my old Netgear router was only passing through 30mbs. The cable tech came out and tested everything, and suggested a new fast router might clear up the problem. And yes it did! This new router passes through about 170mbs download! It was easy to set up, and I quickly had all my devices authorized. I love Netgear products, and this router is certainly a winner for me!

Setup was easy. Router is fast and intuitive. Security seems pretty good. Not sure if I will pay for the Netgear Armour though.

easy install, but it is "brightly lit", my family calls it "the alien on the wall". as far as performance, I put it in the middle of a 3000 Sq FT house and it does reach the garage and upper floors.

This is 3rd router i changed in my new house,and only this one could cover my whole house and handle all wireless devices that i have,very happy with it,it is expensive but worthed,

We purchased this hoping that it would extend out use of wifi within our home, and it is faster, but did not improve the distance or "walls to go through" as much as we had hoped. Better, but not great. We still lose wifi calling in our laundry room and closet. So it is better, but not fantastic.

Very fast + easy as pie set up + reasonably priced = GREAT VALUE! The Best Buy associate guided me through the decision process and I am very happy with everything about this purchase!!

This router is awesome, we pay for high speed internet and the router handles it like a champ. Great signal around the house (3400 sqft.).

I am very pleased with my Nighthawk. The speed is amazing was very simple to hook up everything. I have a home office plus all my media center running from it. Highly recommend it.

The Nighthawk series has always been great and this lives up to the name. My download speeds are so much faster and I have no lag while gaming from my gaming PC

We use this with multiple devices connected via wireless and Cat5e. Powerful and simple for most users.

Drops connection once in while - good otherwise. Super super easy to set up many options for guests & many connections. We have many connections in our household. I like the manager desktop control center.

A great router for a larger home. Our home is 3600sq ft and has awesome signal strength with our 150mbps internet service. If you're looking a reliable triband router, look no further.

Everyone with multiple wifi devices needs this! TV's cellphones, laptops, tablets, garage doors... everything uses wifi! It boosted my download and upload speeds. My cable box was even running slow because the modem/router combo couldn't handle all the data. This solved all our of our connectivity issues.

Excellent WiFi router with amazing speed that reaches the entire house as well as outside. Great for families that tend to use multiple devices at once as you won't see a drop in speed.

I'm using this for my business and it's working like a charm. It has great range and never faulters. The wizard is very easy to use.. overall very user friendly.
