Wifi signal worked very well for 3 months but after that would not produce a wifi signal. Contact customer. They tried to help and after 4 hours the tech concluded that the router was not sending a wifi signal and agreed on replacing it but the company did not have one I stock and decided to give me an upgrade after I sended the old one back. The replacement arrived but it was the one I sent back to them. They mentioned that they would send out the rorrect one and they apologize for the delay. They wanted me to pay to have the same one I sent back already again a second time and because the mistake was thiers and it was not fair for me to have to send this old one back a second time. I did not get the replacement router from netgear. Customer service does not work they work it should. They will answer the phone but they will not honor thier customers at all. So they will try to get you to fill out a survey to give them a wonderful experience with andrhats when they will stab u in the back.

Replaced an old +10 yr old router that was only getting 15Mbps (out of the 100Mbps we pay for.) Now we are getting 40-45Mbps, higher if closer to the router. Old router was also dropping signal several times a day (very annoying.) Zero drops with the new router after about a week. Quite happy with the Nighthawk purchase so far.This router sends out 2 Wi-Fi networks: a 5G network and a normal one. The 5G sends out a faster speed but to a smaller area, so if you are having trouble with slow speeds or disconnects, check to see if you are on the regular network (which covers a larger area.) Netgear also asks you to use a mobile device to install the router, but there is an option to install the router if you don't have one available. Setup was not difficult. So far, so good. Thanks!

The other customer reviews prepared me for the different setup approaches. I took the manual approach and it took a little more than 2 hours, but I am a computer programmer. I was prepared with my "junk email" address for the Netgear account setup. Also, if it says you need a firmware update be sure to do that because (it seemed to me) I couldn't get to the Internet without doing so. I also took others advice and made my SSID and security ID the same as my last router to minimize grief from all the many devices. Finally, when I unplugged the router in order to connect to my UPS it takes a bit for it to initialize (just like a cable modem would). Watch the indicator lights until they stabilize (or take a walk and come back later). But all these things I listed are just so things go smoothly for others, it's not like you replace a wireless router or have it lose power very often at all, right?The reason I am pleased is what others have reported: the range and speed seem great, having watched a lot of streaming TV this afternoon and evening. I also checked and have WiFi signal throughout our house and even out in the yard. The unit arrived quickly and the price was very reasonable. I followed the documentation link from the router admin page and downloaded a 163 page user's manual.

I bought this to replace a Netgear R6300 that was having intermittent problems. Based on the reviews I had high expectations but I was a little underwhelmed. First off, aesthetically, it doesn't look nearly as nice sitting prominently in my living room. Second, setup is touted as being easy but I felt the whole process took longer than necessary and the multiple reboots annoying. Third, and most importantly, the signal strength/coverage area isn't as good as what I achieved with the R6300. I used to be able to pull into my driveway and in the few seconds it took to park and remove my phone from my back pocket, I would already be connected to the wifi. Now it takes several minutes for it to switch over. With the 3 exposed antennas, versus the internal antenna on the the R6300, I expected the opposite. All of that out of the way, it does its job. I have consistent 89+/- Mbps download speeds with occasional spikes to 215 Mbps via the data cable (my ISP says up to 60 Mbps with my package). The intermittent loss of signal are resolved. In all honesty, if I could find another Netgear R6300 or the equivalent I would choose it over this model but Netgear is no longer offering that style so this will have to do.

Are you ready for a faster then fast installation... well let me tell you this was the quickest installation I've ever done. I have an alarm system and a solar system that depend on my network not being down else it could cost me money. Once I uploaded the app the rest was a pleasure and it looks very sophisticated or should I say very professional. The lights are blinking and everything went like clock work. I just love my router and I think you all will too.
