This router has successfully served as the backbone of a 30 device network with ten users. It was running DHCP up until recently (before moving to a dedicated server) but rarely had any issues.

- Tonnes and tonnes of settings; - Full of features; - Solid dual band; - Guest network works properly; - Doesn't choke on high traffic; - Looks great; - Customizeable

- Large size, - Router has to reboot for even small setting changes, taking everything offline, - Free support is only offered for 90 days; After that it's paid; Luckily I haven't ever needed it

Excellent. A huge step up on my previous, more entry-level, WiFi router. Genie control app is handy for keeping teenager in check. Easy setup. Has been bulletproof so far (after 1 month).

Exchanged for a different router with a more reliable 5Ghz radio. If the 5Ghz band isn't critical for you and you don't require an advanced firmware (without going aftermarket) then this router would be just fine for you.

-Great range -Great speeds -Easy to set up; and takes the very minimum of oversight/knowledge -Firmware is great for people who don't want have to figure things out

-5Ghz band is flaky and the 5Ghz radio seems to drop very frequently -No stand for different orientations -Although the stock firmware is easy to use; there are very minimal advanced settings

More than doubled my household range (2.4gig) form old Cisco wireless Lynksys. Stable signal. Good internet interface. Wireless printing now with w/ 3Gig usb port; a savings from having to buy a new AirPrint laser printer! Have not yet attached my HD for photos and music central storage

Installs Easily

I am a CCNP certified network engineer, I understand how this equipment is supposed to work, but it fails miserably at what it is supposed to do.

Wired connectivity is rock solid

I have had a Dell laptop

I replaced my Cisco Linksys WRT610N v2 with this Netgear Nighthwawk router a couple of months ago, and it changed my life. This thing is a ROCK! Outstanding range, jaw-dropping performance and speed, unequalled reliability, at what I consider to be a reasonable price.

Iwas definitely under the impression that this router could provide signal throughout my 2 story home. It was better than my old netgear router but I still had to purchase a netgear range extender to cover the further points of my house.

Easy To Set Up; Fast; Fast Connection Speed

Dissappointing Coverage

I know the phrase "first-world problems" is overused these days, and I overused it myself lately when a resident daughter was moaning bitterly about the parts of our house where the wifi signal is non-existent. But then internet black holes are very annoying.

All I wanted was better wi-if and this seemed to fit the bill.... until it arrived! The phone jack doesn't plug into this - a router with no phone connection? So I had to buy a modem as well.

From every 802.11ac wireless router we've tested to date, the Netgear sets the benchmark of what is currently possible. It's our fastest 802.11ac router. Here's our Netgear Nighthawk R7000 802.11ac router review.
