    Wish NETGEAR used this model to meet new tech

    NETGEAR has some amazing tech coming....but they have been saying that for over a year now and none of the models are showing these advancements. Yes the system upgrades me to what they advertise and yes it works easily and setup is not a huge pain. I have stayed with NETGEAR even though my previous router from them failed...maybe I will end up regretting not trying a competitor. I will update this if that is the case, but for now, price and output combined to lead me to this brand again.

    This router is kick A! It has multiple options to manage your network, multiple bands to divvy up heavy traffic, and the range is incredible. Highly recommend!

    This router and mesh extender started off great. I have been a Netgear user for the past 10 years. Was easy to configure and was up and running in less than an hour. Then, we noticed it would cut out and require a restart once a week or so. Then it was a couple times a week. Not acceptable. I boxed it all back up and returned the router and mesh extender to Best Buy and got a Linksys Velop system.

    Fantastic wireless router. I upgraded to this router from a different nighthawk that had less range. If you are have many devices and want super fast speeds, then buy this.

    When you talk about Wireless, include the NightHawk as the top one. This has amazing coverage for one of Netgear's best-made routers. I'm please and proud to purchase and set this up for any client. A++ all around.
