    Easy set up. Works perfect. The instructions were appropriate for the novice as well as someone who understands technology. I found it easy to know what was the best model.

    This is the best Netgear router for range. Asus has the ac5300 which I eventually got over this one I thought the x10 would have been better but the AD tech standard is a non starter. Netgear gambled and the standard is now AX not AD so please be careful when shopping it does not performs well but the x6s is a moderate contender. It too had random reboot issues . Only 16 device connected half legacy too so it shouldn't have been a issue. Happy shopping

    Our wifi is much cleaner, this was easy to install and allows me to set up a piece just for visitors and cell phones, leaving the higher speeds for laptops and gaming

    Very easy to setup- the app is very intuitive! Love the smart control that switches between the2-5G hz and the 2.4 Ghz channels automatically to avoid slow downs!

    I upgraded to this router about 2 months ago and it has been fantastic. It has 3 levels of WIFI and is great for multiple devices in our home not to cause lag. Great signal strength too.

    Upgraded from a router that wasn’t able to handle 600 or more mbps. With a total of 12 devices including 2 that are wired directly from his router does its job!!

    We purchased this with a price match and needing to replace current router that was failing and several years old. It’s been working well. Install and set up were difficult and instructions not clear. We needed to call out internet provider and add the router on their end so that it was recognized. Had it said to do this first, we wouldn’t have wasted a few hours and lots of frustration.

    Excellent product. Tri-band capability was a must have for me. This router is easy to use but also includes more advanced features if you are more tech savvy. Would recommend.

    The set up was easy and along with my ASUS modem I was able to double the speeds I was getting with the rented Modem/Router combo from Comcast. It costs more, but you pay for what you get.
