Finally! A Wireless Router that WORKS!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Holy smoke! This unit is B.A. I have used 802.11 for years, but I have never owned one that worked worth a $#$#. While the price of this unit is high, think about how many you have gone through over the years and paid for only to find it doesn't work after a month or two. Invest the money and follow the directions for setup and you won't be unhappy at all! The sharing feature to attach storage is pretty nice, however, the security setup for it is a little behind the times. I didn't buy it because it could share hard drives, I needed speed and something that would work more than five feet away. This bad boy does just that as I can stand in my driveway or even at the park across the street from my house and get full signal. That being said, be sure you secure it so folks are doing old school "war driving" and stealing your internet!

Great Wifi Router
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great WIFI Router - easy to setup and configure. Customer Support was excellent when calling to make sure I had all of my setting completed correctly from placing my Comcast Gateway into Bridge mode and optimize my router. Be ready for it to take up some space this Wi-Fi router is on the large side.

Awesome coverage and speed
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this ro replace my internet providers router. It provides much better coverage (I no longer have any lack of signal areas anywhere in our house) and the speeds are amazing. The addition of a USB drive plugged directly into the router allows the sharing of files easily throughout the house.

Best Router!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is by far the best Router I have ever owned! I have a connected home with multiple wireless ready devices, switches, security cams, etc etc. Needless to say I have no issues, no signal drops and it's super fast. I have the Night Hawk paired with Netgear Docis 3.0 and so far a great dual setup.

Top Router Fastest!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Satisfaction guarantee with superior innovation, newest tech updates, blazing & secured network security, most reliable always active WiFi device on the market, more bang for the price than other competitors: Period ! Although, it was advertised on Black Friday $100 less and was afforded the opportunity to return for the credit of one hundred bucks which was a legitimate financial issue entitled for price match overall to market price competition!

Solid and Stable
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was able to connect this router without any issues. I bought this device to replace my old wireless n (draft) router from several years ago. The setup was straightforward, and I was able to easily setup the same wireless access point and all of my port forwarding settings with 30 minutes, including downloading and installing the firmware for the nighthawk x8. I have enjoyed stable, fast connection from all of the devices on my network so far.
