Please read the warranty terms before purchasing.

Only worked for 6 months. Has 1 year guarantee. Unfortunately, Netgear did not honor the warranty because it was purchased through a third party that was not an "authorized" Netgear reseller. This product was highly recommended to me by a qualified computer technician, but it was a disappointment. Luckily, Revain.com supported the product and allowed me to return it for a full refund and will also be contacting the retailer/seller regarding their refusal to support the product warranty.

Pros
  • Done
Cons
  • Some problems

Great WiFi router for multi-storey houses!

Excellent wireless router! We had trouble buffering our TV since the router was on the third floor while our main TV was on the first floor. We tried Wi-Fi extenders and it didn't help. We were told to try this and if it didn't work we would have to get the cable company to come out and add the location. Expensive. Well it worked! Zero buffering! Hooray!

Pros
  • Not cheap but decent
Cons
  • Can do harm

Almost perfect - computers and accessories

Easy installation. Can support multiple devices simultaneously without too many hiccups. The signal goes further than my previous router. The only negative is that a week after plugging it in, the device failed for no apparent reason. The device shut down completely and I had to restart the router and reset the information. I hope this was just an odd occurrence and not a harbinger of equipment failure.

Pros
  • It's amazing
Cons
  • There are flaws

Switching to Nighthawk fixed my speed issues!

My MB was low. I called a spectrum specialist and he recommended this Nighthawk. I was skeptical but I dared. I couldn't be more impressed. My Mbs jumped from 50 to 117! (I have a 100MB plan) It permeates every room of my 3300 sqft home, a separate garage and a yard. And I have it in my media closet with the door closed.

Pros
  • Pretty impressive
Cons
  • Not sure

Spectrum modem Wi-Fi transmits poorly. We bought this unit based on.

We have Spectrum Internet and a modem in the office. Spectrum modem Wi-Fi transmits poorly. We bought this unit on the recommendation of Spectrum engineers. It works so well. Our IT did the setup. so far very satisfied. If you have a range of services in your office and are having trouble with Wi-Fi, buy this device.

Pros
  • Useful not only for its intended purpose
Cons
  • Compatibility

WOW Networking Products

9 walls and about 250 feet provide 5 beams for my Nighthawk AC1900 repeater in my backyard guest house! That's what I call a router. Just as I would expect from a large home router. we are 1/2 acer and i needed something with oomf. Supports my 4K Smart TV and more. I've been using it for 2 months now and so far so good! No disturbances. THANK YOU Netgear!

Pros
  • Great for outdoor activities
Cons
  • For seniors

Product has stopped working

It was terrible and I am very dissatisfied with the way this purchase went. I bought this product in March and was blown away. I was willing to ignore it and it worked from time to time and after only a few months it stopped working at all. Worse, the last return day for the supplier was May 31st. Such a shame I can't get anyone to do anything about it and it took a little over three months to purchase before it stopped working. Shameful

Pros
  • Quality finish
Cons
  • I am concerned about this

This requires a lot of setup. I was kind of pissed because you would think if you have a Net Gear router, a Net Gear splitter, a Net Gear relay, they should all plug in and work together, not like that. As for the main router, yes that's fine, I wouldn't jump back and forth. I still can't connect to the internet through my wired router in my shed. I need to call technical support again. Hopefully I can find someone from the US who understands the problem.

Pros
  • Free for educational purposes
Cons
  • Socket required
