Best choice I've made
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Since purchasing this router for my home I have picked up 3 more for a couple siblings and office as well. I have better connections with faster speeds and even monitoring option that I was previously paying for comes included in the free software. Amazing product.

Excellent Range and Speed
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this after I awaited to get the Luma WIFI system, the Luma was not working for my house hold needs. The Netgear Nighthawk has excellent range and I was able to link everything that I have in the house. I have an Ooma phone system and a wireless printer that linked up in seconds. The Netgear team has excellent service as well. Had an issue that had nothing to do with the Nighthawk and they were great! I would recommend the Netgear Nighthawk to any one.

Nighthawk Wi Fi router
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great product. Does not lose internet connection. Down side is that is kind of big and expensive. But the quality is great and you get what you pay for.

Still tweaking it
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It is supposed to be a great router but I have yet to maximize it. The 2.4 GHz is not as fast as it should be and support is suggesting that I disable the smart connect which is the reason why I bought this model because of that feature.

Excellent for home office use
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I replaced a 2-in-1 (router & modem) with this router and separate modem. The reception is extremely good. Although it is pricey, it is well worth it. Got a $50 Best Buy gift card as a bonus.

Great Router

Fast and great range
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was very reluctant to spend this much money on a wireless router. After reading a bunch of reviews I was confident in making the purchase. Setup was completely straight forward. The interface is simple to work through and they explain each step. Wifi range is fantastic. We live in a 3 story townhouse and this gets perfect coverage on each floor. Much better than our fios quantum router that left dead spots throughout the house.

Great signal strength

We are evaluating the durability of this device, and we had bad experiences with good wifi router died prematurely from other vendors. So durability is key.
