Once you get past the fact that you can't setup the router from Netgear's App because you need to configure the VLAN in the advanced setting via the web interface, it works really well in a reasonably large house with multiple streaming users.

What lets the product down, is that there is no ability to set different access profiles for users, for example to differentiate between devices used for homework and gaming, you can only manually block and unblock individual clients.

Great product! If you are a Fibre user be sure to set up VLAN/Bridge to port 10. Had me scratching my head for an hour as it is off by default. I live in a 3 bedroom home and I have constant signal throughout the house, even outside! Great modem A+++ Great product! If you are a Fibre user be sure to set up VLAN/Bridge to port 10.

Got as a replacement for the internet provider free fibre modem. This is a huge upgrade. Got as a replacement for the internet provider free fibre modem. This is a huge upgrade.

I've had a Netgear Nighthawk for several years and recently decided it was time for a performance upgrade. Very easy to get my network up and running again after the switchover. Wifi performance seems even better than before, even working in some outbuildings that my old router just couldn't penetrate. I'd give it 5 stars, but I still can't come to grips with how expensive the latest Wifi routers are, even though this one isn't even near the top end of the price range.

Tried this out and returned the next day. Wifi range was poor, UI was poor, overall not satisfactory. Got a Asus
TUF-AX5400 instead which is much much better in every way. Tried this out and returned the next day. Wifi range was poor, UI was poor, overall not satisfactory. Got a Asus

Super easy to set up! I did have to call my ISP for a bit of help getting it connected, but took 5mins with their helpdesk and was up and running.

It says to scan a QR code for easy setup, which is not supplied.
This product is very difficult to set up.
Cannot rate the actual product as still not working. It says to scan a QR code for easy setup, which is not supplied.

Looked at all the specs and competitors offerings and decided on this as it met my specs and having dealt with PBTECH in the past knew that I would get speedy delivery and great service. Which is exactly what I got. Thanks PBTECH.

The sales guy from PB Tech was amazing in Hamilton. The first ever time in that store I received outstanding service (he was from Wellington) He walked me through the good, the bad, and the ugly with this router. I was tossing up between the ASUS RT 86U and this one.... so I brought the Nighthawk. Sure as the day is long the problems setting it up was arduous....3 hours later with Netgear customer support... I got it going.... but some devices don't like the router. The speed is insane consistent 930 Mbps on the download and 652 Mbps on the upload. There is minimal lag in gaming as well.....

Was easy to setup with our new fiber line, wi-fi range is so much better than the SPARK modem we had. Nice downloaded able app for phone to see what is happening on the network Was easy to setup with our new fiber line, wi-fi range is so much better than the SPARK modem we had.

I bought this router because I was having streaming issues for my Quest 2 wireless VR. The setup was easy to integrate into my existing router setup and I'm only using this router purely as a Wifi access point. The app did the configuration for me. My friend and I are both getting the full Quest 2 1200Mbit connection for our PCVR using airlink. Very happy with this router so far after about a month.
