    My first router I've purchased in years and it did not disappoint. It was easy to use and setup. I have no complaints and it does the job right. I haven't had any issues and have used this for 6 months now.

    OK - it's not cheap and it is big. But it significantly increased the speed to all of my devices - I upgraded from a Cisco router. I noticed an immediate difference with my Samsung S8+, among other devices/

    This is the second nighthawk I've purchased. One for home and one for the office. It replaces an ASUS that always had problems. The one for the office has been great and runs multiple devices effortlessly.

    I saved to get this router and stop paying comcast for their modem/router andd was satisfied initially no my speeds were not better yes i still had lag, but I was satisified I was away from comcast. until right after warranty expired with no warning it goes out. like a few weeks beyond the warranty. At the cost of this router you would be better off with a cheaper model.

    Before I purchased this router, I was renting Comcast's "BEST" modem/router on the market. My internet speed has improved tremendously with this router. Best purchase to date in the past few months.
