Review on NETGEAR Nighthawk RS400 Router: AC2300 Wireless Speed, 2000 sq ft Coverage, 35 Devices, 4 x 1G Ethernet, 2 USB Ports, 3 Years Armor Security by Robert Hardin

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Easy to install, fast WIFI

I'm not a techie but I have some computer experience. It was very easy to install and for the most part I don't have as much buffering as I used to. I can watch recently released movies with little or no buffering. My WiFi speeds are much faster in the farthest corners of my house, which has been a problem in the past, especially with music channels. It was not so easy for me to connect other devices to the router. It connects easily to my mobile phone, laptops and TVs. This was difficult with my printer and scanner (Scan Snap). I'm sure there are other devices I could possibly connect, but these are the ones I use the most. So far I haven't had any issues with Bitdefender/Armour security. I get more notifications on my phone than on my laptops, but I find it helpful. It makes me stop and consider if I really need to see certain things or try a safer way for my electronics. I recently made some changes to these two apps, so maybe I'll treat them differently once I see how they work. I've had this router for about 2 months or more. There is a manual that explains a lot of details if you visit the Netgear website. So far I haven't had to call anyone for help. I hope I never have to, but I'd like to think it would be useful and efficient.

Pros

Cons
