    I purchased this for my first home rather than using the cable/internet company’s rental router to save some money. I’m so happy I did! It has a very simple set up and I like the phone app feature. On the app you can troubleshoot and test any connection issues, change your WiFi name or password in an instant, and turn on the “Guest” feature without making any changes to your own regular home network. There’s only 2 of us in the house but we both have our cell phones, a laptop, and a smart TV constantly running on it and have had no problems in the 5 months I’ve owned it. Also, it’s easy to hide on a shelf with decor! Don’t let the cable/internet companies scare you into thinking you absolutely have to use their router or your connection won’t work. That’s false. As long as you buy one strong enough to handle your internet requirements/usage you will be fine. The amount you’ll spend renting a router for 1 year is far more costly than purchasing this Netgear router for the 1 one time price.

    Works great, easy to set up. I'm not sure if I needed this one or if the AC1200 would have been sufficient. I had the AC1000 at first, but that was only good for 100 mbps input.

    I was having a problem with getting disconnected from the internet (LAN was fine). I switched out 2 different routers with the same results so I decided to try a new one. This router was on closeout at a good price so I gave it try. I have not been disappointed. There's around 4 devices connected most of the time with no problems. Sometimes there's 8 or 9 devices connected with no problem. It does what I need.

    This is a great product !! I followed online instructions I printed out, and was able to install it by myself.....and I'm no expert. It's been doing a fabulous job so far, and very happy with the purchase.

    This router was perfect for my 1500 sq ft house. My speed is great for working from home and using all my electronic devices at once doesn't seem to cause any lag.
