We're way out in the country and our phones are routed through our internet -- meaning; no router, no phone. So we had to record instructions while still connected, then rig up an ethernet connection (not straight forward with my laptop). Once the new router was connected to your site it all went well enough because your site has accommodations for those of us in the hi...

WiFi Router
I am not impressed at all with this Netgear router. The first Netgear router I got had to return worthless. I am replacing this router with a Linksys

Networking Devices
Networking device difficulties. I have four devices successfully in the network. Four others keep being rejected (Samsung TV, older HP printer, home thermostat, and Ring system).

Exaggerated performance
Keep in mind the coverage is not for the square footage of say your home and each wall or door takes away the coverage area. I had previously had 2 other nighthawk routers that they decided to discontinue updates for so I made the switch for security reasons but I miss my old outdated setup. This one has poor coverage area, struggles to keep consistent connections and d...

New Nighthawk router
Needed new router as my old netgear reached end of life. New Nighthawk was easy to setup and connect! Wifi network seems to be running smoothly with no issues.

Worthwhile Investment

At 73 technology has passed me by but I feel like this device is noticeably faster and colors seem brighter.

Excellent router
The router was easy to set up. It seems to be working very well. Definitely a speeding increase over the last unit.

Wireless Network Connections
I have had trouble maintaining connection with a Roku Express 4K+. Every day I need to reboot the router to establish the connection. I tried turning of the Smart Connect and renaming the networks but the router failed to complete the task. I had to do a factory reset in order the get the system back in service. I'm thinking about reinstalling my old router which never ...

Light Speed

Poor performance and constant intermittent drops
I have been using this router now for about 3+ weeks. The performance and constant drops and lag is killing my work connections and having a lot of issues.
It does not support individual DNS setups for each Wifi setup and that is very annoying.
I would like to return this equipment for a full refund.
Thank you!

Performs well
The router is working consistently without issues. The setup was a little problematic as the instructions did not say that both the 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz bands would be under the same name in Wifi7.

Good but one flaw
Requires an online account to set up instead of basic plug and play which would be more appropriate
