Difficult to set up and intermittent loss of signal

The web interface crashes almost every time I try to set it up, even though I was finally able to set it up. I'm going to let it run for a few days now to see if it holds up after finally getting it set up. If not, it returns. Addendum: I sent it back. I had intermittent connection issues over the next two days and my old router (Asus) didn't, and my ISP (Comcast) never failed this pattern. Clearly a faulty unit as signal strength was fine throughout the house (a significant improvement indeed)

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • Secret

Terrible product and support ZERO STARS

Set up the RAX15 after lots of trouble after which it lost connection overnight. Many hours of troubleshooting with CS; Finally reconnected to most of my devices. I still can't get a laptop to find the router even though it had no trouble connecting to the Comcast router I replaced. The laptop's network card has been proven to be working properly and has the latest drivers. He could see a dozen or more networks in my apartment building, but not the Netgear network! The laptop was also able toโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Good thing
Cons
  • Something else

Updated review - very buggy and unreliable, limited support

Update after 3 weeks of use: Unfortunately I have to downgrade this to 1 star. Initially I was very happy with the router, but after a few weeks of use it turned out to be very unreliable. The problem we face is that one of our devices loses access to the internet from time to time. It is connected to Wi-Fi but it says there is no internet. Other devices on the network are working properly. I've tried restarting the device, turning Wi-Fi on/off, deleting the network and adding it again and none

Pros
  • GOLS certified
Cons
  • Long delivery time

Do not buy if you have a Spectrum cable modem

This router will not properly communicate with a Spectrum cable modem if you are upgrading an existing router. There is a problem with the modem's MAC address that is preventing the router from communicating with the modem. I spent about an hour with Netgear tech support. We needed to find the MAC address of the modem so we could correct that address in the router settings. The Nighthawk mobile installer app does not recognize this issue. Spectrum Cable Internet Support is not aware of thisโ€ฆ

Pros
  • A little about
Cons
  • Some cons

While it works, it's a great router.

I bought a Netgear RAX 15 router at the end of June to replace my 10 year old Netgear WNDR3700 N600 router. The old router was working fine when I took it out of service to install the new AX router. Wanted to take advantage of advances in router technology, faster WiFi speeds, and other AX improvements. Whether the router was replaced a few days after receiving a new one. I skipped the Nighthawk app and set up the new router manually using the GUI. Setup was smooth, apart from a few hiccups in

Pros
  • also understandable for the old
Cons
  • Only available in white

Much faster than our old Wifi-N router

We recently got cable internet and realized how bad our old router is. I know most people in the world will laugh, but for the last ten years we've only had mobile internet depending on where we are. When connected directly, the download speed exceeded 100 Mbit/s, after connecting the old Wifi N router, the speed was about 40 Mbit/s, but the most disappointing thing was that it randomly didn't work. Our Google Home and Alexa didn't work half the time, it's time for an upgrade/update. Found this

Pros
  • Handsome
Cons
  • Style 90

Don't make it worse

This is the most unintuitive router I've ever dealt with. First, they suggest you use their app to set up and install your router. So I download the app and they want you to open an account. HM okay. Then they get picky about password choices, capitalization and such, because we don't have enough passwords to deal with in our lives, let alone something as mundane as setting up a router. Therefore we skipped this route and immediately drove to the connection. in an ethernet cable to my laptopโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Great price
Cons
  • Some bugs
