Powerful Sucker
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It is a great router. Highly recommended! Powerful guy and made a huge difference. Three Channels and pumps the wireless fantastically and maximizes the speed. My only issue was the first one I brought home did not work and had to take back and exchange. But that happens sometimes. I would recommend this to anyone.

Good performance...after we got one that worked.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Our initial purchase only worked for 24 hours before we had to take it back to exchange it. Now that we have one that works properly, I can safely say that this router has improved our speed to ALL of our devices immensely! We are very pleased. We are finally getting the internet service that we have been paying for.

Very pricy, but great range
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This device has not failed on my once in the months I've had it. I could not say this for many of the cheaper ones I have used over the years. I would always need to reset them, and they never lasted too long. This device has great range, and plenty of LAN outputs for y hardwired devices. Expensive, but I'm happy with it

for the price not good
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Let's start off with, this is easy to setup. The router is huge, seems to frequently reset and doesn't keep up very well. I would'nt recommend this to anyone. I'd expect this from some of the lower grade routers, not the flagship of Netgear

Excellent Router
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great device, love it for our office of 15 folks - a bit pricey for home usage for this guy but would love to have it.

awesome!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.With just a single router I am able to have good coverage in my home with 4,200sqft across 2 levels. I am seeing bandwidth of more than 40Mpbs on 2.4 and more than 60Mpbs on 5 GHz, more than enough for stable HD video streaming. It is very easy to configure and runs absolutely stable. This router is truly awesome!

still won't access all options
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This router is complicated. Our IT company still can't get it set up properly. VPN, which was the huge selling point for the router, works only to access the Internet. When you set the wifi to allow access to the network it shuts off. The unit is expensive. The amount of hours paid to IT support adds insult to injury.

Top of the line
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is the fastest router available and has tons of extras others don't. The first one i got died Netgear replaced it because it was within the year. since then i have not had a problem with it. I can max out my internet speed over wifi at 150+ mbps. Glad i found it cheaper on amazon and i price matched it.

good one as long as ISP speeds are justifiable
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good router unless you already have the x6. If you do, not worth the upgrade

Nighthawk x8
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.One word (faaaassssssttt) I am extremely happy with this purchase. Yes it's expensive but if u want wifi speeds of a v8 rather then a four cylinder Prius engine this is the way to go. No more buffering, I was able to stream 4K content flawlessly. This is perfect for gamers, zero lag means increase k/d ratio.
