    I had a Nighthawk R7000 since 2016 that I've been using without issues for some time. However, now that my internet speeds are higher, I needed something beefier to offer faster speeds to my devices. Unfortunately, despite mounting this router in the same exact location, I have very bad dead spots throughout my home that my old router was providing adequate WiFi service to. My TV often needs to buffer, laptops on WiFi are getting about 50mbps down with this router instead of 220mbps down from my old router. Considering the price point, features and the sheer number of antennas on this thing, I assumed it would perform better than the device it replaced. Not worth the price. I have a two story, 3,200 sq ft home. 2nd Floor often sees disconnects, and my daughters room is a dead spot now. Will be returning to go with a different solution.

    I have no complaints for this router. But Netgear has so many router offerings, I can't help but wonder about the ones I decided not to buy. I'm sure they're all great, but sometimes too many options just get frustrating. I'm having a FOMO moment, is all. I covers my entire 2300 square foot home easily - INCLUDING the wifi sprinkler controller out in the farthest corner of the garage. Nice app and custom setting capabilities, per-user controls, per-device controls, parental controls, etc.

    After frustration after frustration with Wi-Fi from the internet provider I upgraded to this router and I could not be happier!! I have 50 Wi-Fi devices with switches and plugs and cameras and iPads and desktops and laptops and phones and.. you get my drift. This handles all of them with ease. No lag no slow down.
