Setup was very easy, especially if you download the NETGEAR app and follow the simple steps. The dual band mesh capability seamlessly connected all of my wireless devices using the best options. Everything works much faster and smoother.

Title: Works Flawlessly With Verizon FiOS
Description: Purchased this to replace that awful Verizon provided cr1000 router and it works way better! My home is ethernet configured so it was easy to plug in the WAN cord from the ONT straight into the router for plug and play - didnt have to configure anything additional. WiFi signal is great, speeds are great, and does a great job auto assigning the signal and security method for older and newer devices.

Very pleased with performance. The last router from our provider didn't reach the other end of our home and dropped calls and went offline often. This Netgear WIFI 7 has been excellent, no extender needed and hasn't dropped any calls from anywhere in our home.

A great router for apartment sized homes. Works with Mac, Linux, and Windows. Works on all 2.4 ghz, 5 ghz, and 6 ghz bands. I verified that can connect to my LG TV (5 ghz), Sonos soundbar (2.4 ghz), old laptop (2.4 ghz), new laptop (6 ghz). I can stream video at 4K and play online games without any hiccups.
The band steering feature works well. Band steering lets the router seamlessly switch from the 5 or 6 ghz band (close range) to the 2.4 ghz band (far range). The default router that my ISP gave me was terrible and could not do band steering. It would "get stuck" on a poor band and your device would lag forever.
Setup was quite easy. Just make sure to restart the router if it doesn't connect to your ISP on the first try. Be patient and let the power drain completely. Comes with a Cat-5e flat cable (2m length).
The router does not get hot and looks minimalistic. Keeps the wife/girlfriend happy.

Title: Nighthawk BE9300 Great Router
Description: I haven't set up a new router for at least 5 years, and let me tell you, this Nighthawk was a breeze to configure. And the internet speed getting to my laptops (2) & TVs (4) was much better than previous Netgear router, which was over 5 years old. I'm definitely impressed with this new Nighthawk... it's giving me a full 500mbps over WiFi, whereas before I was only getting about 300mbps max.

Great Purchase!
Reduced and/or removed the buffering when watching our TV in 4K.
Simple setup in my case, all I did is connect the network cable from my modem and through the App Setup.
Wifi Range is awesome as I am able to get connection from my driveway and backyard were I never had connection before.
The design is quite simple and not too bulky compared to other wifi 7 routers (those dead spider look lol).
Overall, I am 100% satisfied with this purchase.
Great for wifi gaming, 4K Streaming (depending on your ISP), and reliable (haven't had any issue with the wifi regardless of Spectrum ISP internet outage).
DEEPLY RECOMMEND AND WILL BE SET FOR ANOTHER 5-10 YEARS!

Decided to upgrade from an older NETGEAR router I’ve had since 2017. Setup was an easy process and was up and running in no time. Noticed an immediate improvement in speeds and also range of WiFi. NETGEAR is the standard.

This is a Great Router. I bought it to extend my Wi-Fi, and it worked very well. I also used the app to set it up, and even though I still used my Xfinity Modem, all I had to do was connect the Router to the Modem via Ethernet, follow the app instructions, and it was up and running amazingly fastl

This router was easy to set up and it works great. I have a 1500 sq foot ranch house, ad this model RS300 reaches all parts of my house. It provides fast connectivity to all of my TV cable boxes, Google Nest Hubs, smart phone, Google Nest Doorbell and my mobile phone. This works great - no complaints.

Recently upgraded to this. Very easy set up process. I have a tri-level house and router is set up in lower level. My office is set up in upper level. No issues. Have several smart tvs, smart thermostat, smart smoke detector, smart doorbell, etc. No issues.

Purchased at Best Buy taking advantage of sale price.
Installation was very straightforward and simple. Very easy to change SSID to previous network name using the app. The only glitch was needing to reconnect all of my devices after the system was up and running (password needed to be reentered).
Performance after the install is noticeably improved in both speed and range.

Very easy to set up and excellent signal coverage. We have a 3 level home and I set the router up in the basement and we receive great signal on all floors. It’s connected to our Arris modem and no problems whatsoever. We are with Xfinity and on the 1gb plan. We finally receive the speed we pay for with this router. We previously had the WIFI 6 router and yes, you can tell the speed difference.

The Nighthawk BE9300 delivers blazing-fast speeds with Wi-Fi 7, making it perfect for streaming, gaming, and smart homes. Setup is straightforward through the app, and coverage is excellent even in larger homes. Tri-band helps reduce congestion for multiple devices. A bit pricey, but worth it for top-tier performance.

Title: NETGEAR Nighthawk® BE9300 WiFi 7
Description: This is an upgrade to our older Netgear Router. This new router was easy to setup as the older one was. And this new router was a definite speed improvement over the older one. I am totally sold on Netgear routers.

Easy set up and connection done with my home system. My husband loves being able to monitor everything and how the system assigns the connection speed to a device when connected.
