  • Great router for 400Mb speed (so far)

    I have had this router for about a month now and I can say it's the first router that has been able to keep up with my Xfinity 400Mb connection. I have been getting testing speeds of over 500 during the day when no one is at my complex. It has reset to default setting 2 weeks ago but haven't had any issues since.

    Bought this to handle 19 devices in which several stream movies and a hard wired PS4. I had occasional lag with last router and figured this one would be able to easily handle the load. Since purchase 5 weeks ago I have called Netgear several times and have at least 6 help tickets. Every single day after everyone gets home my playstation is unplayable with lag. And it's hard wired. Plug ethernet straight to PS4 and no lag. For some reason this router kills my signal. Maybe if I can warranty this unit out and a new one is better I'll do another review. Right now my verdict is doo doo.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    I purchased this to replace a Linxys I also got and didn’t care for. Although it was a big step up from an extender, it still drops WiFi when the kids are online gaming. Their PS4 is no more than 25ft from the unit. Let’s say it works fine most of the time

    This is one of the ultimate routers. I normally upgrade every 3 years due to adding more devices and this thing is awesome. Right now i run 4 smart tv's, 5 smart phones, 4 laptops, 3 tablets, 12 cameras, 6 Amazon Alexis devices and some other things. Again this router handles all that.

    Decided to upgrade our home router because of...you know, all this...to make working from home a bit easier. This thing has handled everything we've thrown at it with basically no issues other than a dropped signal once in a while. Very happy with it. And it looks like a spaceship.

    I got two of them, this was really a good product and it worked well but unfortunately for one of the router the adapter got overheated and the router stopped working. BestBuy took the product back and their customer service was awesome.
