    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    Had an older NETGEAR router, upgraded my internet plan to a gig. My old router was 10 years old and still giving me 560 down. I decided to upgrade to see if I could do better with the idea I could always return it if I wasn't impressed. I'm now getting a consistent 957 down and 30 up and this is important...my wife thinks I'm a genius ;) In all seriousness, beyond my expectations. It's easy to setup, walks you through everything and brings amazing speeds.

    Like that it was easy to set up and works well. The range could be better and it won’t update through the app which is annoying, so I had to dock a star, but otherwise very happy with performance and speed.

    My former cable modem/router failed. After consulting with Best Buy, I decided to purchase a separate cable modem and router. The ease of connection was greatly appreciated. The Wi-Fi transmission rate to my home devices greatly improved. I really appreciated the improved speed on my laptop. I am sold on NETGEAR products. Great value received for money spent. The other intangible is Best Buy consulting. Overall, a great purchase experience.

    Blazing Speeds, Seamless Setup

    Title: Blazing Speeds, Seamless Setup Description: The Netgear Nighthawk RS300 is everything I hoped for — and more. Setup was a breeze, and within minutes, my home was blanketed in fast, stable Wi-Fi. Streaming football and basketball is now flawless, even in 4K. No buffering, no lag — just smooth, uninterrupted game day action. This router is built for the future. With Wi-Fi 6E support, it’s ready for multi-gig speeds and dense device environments. I’m currently on a 250 Mbps plan, but it’s comforting to know the RS300 can easily handle a 1 Gbps upgrade when I’m ready.

    Simple to setup and offers amazing speeds and coverage of the entire house for every kind of WiFi devise... from old 802.11b to the newest WiFi standard that only a few manufactures have just started putting in high-end laptops and smartphones. This router has been stable and reliable so far, and I love how it notifies me every time a new device connects to my network. I also like how it consolidates all of the different WiFi bandwidth's onto one broadcast name and intelligently switches what kind of WiFi is used with each device depending on device type and distance. Providing the best connection possible. It's a slick WiFi router and compliments a fiber modem really well.

    Blazing fast, no drops I’ve had zero signal issues since switching to the Nighthawk BE9300. It covers every room in the house, even the dead zones that used to cut out. Setup was quick, and I noticed the speed boost immediately—downloads are way faster and streaming is flawless. No regrets. Absolutely recommend.

    Strong and fast signal. Easy to set up using the built-in set up wizard (don't use the nighthawk app - it isn't good). A bit pricey - but hoping to be future proof for a long time.

    I decided to take the plunge with the Nighthawk and replaced both my modem and Wi-Fi router. The difference was immediate—not just in speed, but also in Wi-Fi range. It was so effective that I no longer needed Wi-Fi extenders for my alarm system. If you’re thinking about making the switch, go for it—you won’t be disappointed!

    Fantastic Router for its Price

    I haven't had the router for too long but so far it is amazing, at first I had trouble getting it working at first but after giving a call to Netgear support they were patient and helped me until I made sure everything was working. The speed and range is really good to the point I can get the full 1gb download speed through multiple walls in my room through WiFi. Keep in mind that to get high speeds with the router your device has to be Wifi 6E/7 to use the 6ghz Band, and it isn't worth it if you have speeds less than Gigabit or high.

    A replacement/upgrade from an older model. From all the devices that I had connected and the fact that the other model was over 8 years old, was getting spotty. Now with this upgrade along with a new Modem, not only are all the devices working seamlessly but the speed is OUTSTANDING. For myself and what I have needed this for, would highly recommend.

    The product works well and is lightning fast for everyday use. I did run into a couple issues after setting it up however. First the provided Ethernet cable did not work with my ISP's modem leading to a process of trial and error before resorting to using a lower tier cable. Secondly, the router and app came default with Netgear's "Armor" feature that acts as sort of firewall that blocks certain connections frequently which led to complete loss of WiFi connectivity for a few minutes. I ended up disabling the feature altogether and haven't had disconnections issues since. Overall the Nighthawk router works very well and is quite fast compared to their older products. The app makes managing the router simple and user-friendly.

    I am very happy with the purchase. The router has excellent signal strength and range. I was upgrading 3 year old wi-fi 6 router which was still working well, but the difference between the old one and the new one is noticeable. Easy to set up.
