Customer Ratings & Reviews

This router is great for all my needs. I have had several devices connected to it and streaming with no problems. Devices have no difficulty with connection anywhere in my household.

I want to start by saying that I recieved this router for free as part of netgears friends and family program. I have always had the highest end routers I could find because it truly makes a huge difference in sharing media throughout the house. I had the highest end Asus Router that Best Buy carries but when I got 1GB fiber installed at my house it just couldnt keep up. On average we have 15 devices connected to wifi at all times and have a stucco house which makes wifi signial a constant challenge. In the farthest rooms of my house I was lucky to get 2 bars but with this new router we are at full stregth everywhere. Setup was a breeze I had it up and running in minutes and the netgear genie app made this the most painless router setup I have ever done. Within minutes I had port forwarding/dynamic DDNS/ and the wifi completly configured. For a family looking to get the most out of thier connected home or even a gamer looking to push their internet to the max this router is a must have. Another feature that it has that i was honestly shocked is a 6 port router (instead of a traditional 4 port) This came in especially handy when connecting my Netgear ARLO and other devices I have close to the router. Having this amazing feature set, looking stylish, and improving my wifi/wired speeds significantly make this router a must buy this holiday season as you add more connected devices to your network.

Great router and added functionality to prioritize traffic based on needs/requirements works great at level loading between 8-12 devices that can be on at any given time in my home

The Netgear AC5300 setup was extremely easy with step by step instructions. Once setup, I was still getting a "good" signal half a block from my home so in home coverage is solid

I buy it coz it's the best but it's just ok not really the value of money you pay for it not really long range as they said just a little batter then the last one that is 6 years old

Excellent quality! Very stable and has the ability to control all devices from the app! Possible to generate visitor network with a different password!

I bought this hoping it would work between two houses and while it did reach from my house to part of the next, it didn't quite cover the whole thing. Still a solid router overall.

I love that this thing has three different networks it puts out so I can separate my devices and avoid too much congestion. I've noticed a lot less slowdown on devices due to simultaneous use on phones and laptops. However, I was really hoping I'd see a greatly increased range and it's bigger, but not much bigger. I don't live in a big house and the router is right next to an external wall, yet I lose signal very quickly when I"m mowing my lawn. I don't know that this particular beast is worth the price of admission.

I am so pleased and now have great wifi in my house. And the Geek Squad person set everything up for us and did a great job! This router is awesome and I recommend it highly.

With 6 LAN ports and tri band MU-MIMO technology and link aggregation of 2 LAN ports make this a no brainer. Not too thrilled with the 5Ghz wifi range but speed was not an issue

This is hands down the best router I have had experience with. Streaming is spot on with no lag plus the type of configurations you can do with this is awesome! Recommend!!!!

I bought it to have a faster and stronger wifi and it does the job. I have plenty electronics at home that require wifi and this router works perfectly for my wifi needs.

So far this has been a great router, The setup process was simple and all of my devices connected to it with no issues. It takes up a lot of space but is a strong performer.

This gives us wifi throughout our house and even can pick up a signal down the road with it out old one wouldn't even allow kids to play a online game in the next room!

This router is everything I expected it to be. We use it for Internet streaming for about PS Vue and Netflix on multiple TVs. Have not had an issue with anything.

I was nervous this router would actually cover the area I needed and it did so beautifully, exactly as the salesman promised.

I was recommended this to help get signal on my outside patio. It has helped but not enough. Was hoping for more for the price.

This router still leaves some weak signal spots in the house, especially with the 5G signals, but it works much better than our last router did and gets the job done.

Fast and capable router. The aggregation capability works great for the NAS unit. Two bands of 5gz wireless is nice as well.

This is way better, than having a x finity router. However, after a year.. it would need some maintenance. So I’d suggest you to buy an extended warranty.
