  1. Mike

    It’s modern router works but I have trouble with it sometimes it drops signal sometimes it also has a shorter range than it advertised it’s not bad but not worth the money I spent

  2. KevinB

    Great for games notso fast for tv my 5200 was faster for tv but this one faster for gaming

  3. MattB

    Router reaches my whole 1300 Sqft colonial house and then some. I live on 0.22 acres of land and can always reach the router at least have 4 to 5 bars of commectivity

  4. clay

    when it was working it worked fantastically it fixed my buffer bloat and packet loss issues but the problem was it only occasionally worked as it should and it was not very adaptive you had to recalibrate it all the time

  5. DanL

    This router is pure junk. I had the XR700 before this. It was better. I needed to upgrade to wifi6 to handle the growing number of wireless devices in my home. I like the DumaOS features from my previous router so I bought this one thinking it would be the same software with better wifi capabilities. I could not be more wrong. Three time in the first month and a half I had to reboot when it dropped connections to everything. Also three times, I had to factory reset it because I could not log into the router. The hardware is now junk and the software has followed it into the garbage. I spent a fair amount of time with netgear tech support and got nowhere close to a solution. I am past the 15 Best Buy return window so now I’m stuck with a $300 paperweight. Netgear quality has gone way downhill. I think I’ll be looking to ASUS or TP-Link for my next router. Which is probably going to be soon if this keeps up.

  6. MacBookProRocks

    Love it also switched my home internet speed to gigabyte service and it performs. Everyone should get one!

  7. MonteJ

    Perfect for what i needed , very fast and reliable

  8. Falcon

    This nighthawk router is a modest upgrade from my previous nighthawk. Works everywhere in and around my house. Only reason I replaced is my original was fried in lightening strike.

  9. MichaelC

    Works great and the setup was easy with the app. I use this router for over 10 device and I haven’t had any issues with connectivity or speed Ron the router side. The added protections that are part of the router are nice for that extra security.

  10. ChristopherR

    After a little over a year it consistantly will go to an unprotected network on the wifi and absolutely none of the the netduma os works ..having to weekly factory resset the thing is getting old especially since i have a smart house … its being replaced this weekend

  11. CalebM

    Has improved the wifi in my home tremendously, I would recommend to anyone experiences wifi loss.

  12. Mrbuttars

    Beyond frustrated with this router. It constantly drops connections, the app to access it doesn’t work 99% of the time, and the Smart Connect (combines 2.4 and 5 ghz channels) hardly ever works. I’ve updated it, reset it, and tried pretty much everything – Avoid this and other Netgear products.

  13. BenjaminC

    Plug N Play. Great results and twice as fast as my old night hawk.

  14. JackiA

    Easy setup, works great and fast! Also recommended by other techies I know.

  15. JuniorN

    Best router for gaming,streaming and anything else you could want! Duma OS is simple to use and works amazingly!

  16. Home

    I tried really hard to get this set up. It was a pain in the butt.

  17. Nugget

    Duma 3.0 need some upgrades system wasnt working properly besides that really good signal and speed around the house

  18. WaldemarL

    Great signal I have a townhome and work excellent, also connect great with my ps5 and xbox series x.

  19. Lawrjl

    Returned the Orbi 860 I purchased for the Nighthawk AX5400 Wi-Fi 6 Router White. So glad I did! Set up was easy, connected to all devices right away, and gamers are happy!

  20. Carterwrangler

    This router was cheaper than my last router and works better than any router ive ever had.

  21. Timmc

    One of the easiest router installs I have ever made, super simple interface not overly complicated like most are. Totally satisfied with this router.

  22. VitalNotion

    This router is great! Works well for gaming, streaming, and general browsing. I get 700+ Mb download and similar upload. I have 1GB circuit and you get most of that wirelessly. Wired get the full gig. Range is good.

  23. Jayson

    This was an awesome product, easy to set up through the app.

  24. SamuelB

    I love the customizability of this router. Perfect for avid gamers who are looking for complete customization of their internet connection, and can even throttle other devices connection on your network to improve downloads on specific devices.

  25. JohnJ

    Decided to go with seperate router and modem. So far this thing is a beast. Im no to tech savvy but install was a breeze

  26. JeffJ

    Spectrum would not allow a modem/router combo at my business, so I had to find a good router only. After several bad routers, I found this nighthawk router and after using it for several weeks I can say it has been great. 2400sq ft with a lot of traffic, coverage and speeds have been great as well as scanning for any security threats.

  27. Bill

    Router was very easy to set up, works greag, and looks great.

  28. Rusts

    Great coverage. I have 2400 sq ft and the coverage issues I had previously are gone. I also like the capabilities to throttle upload and download to maintain a consistent ping. Took me a few hours to configure so I would recommend some basic networking skills. There is a wizard for configuration however I cannot speak to how well it works because I didn’t use it.

  29. WrEcK3

    This router is completely trash. Don’t waste your money.

  30. CalebM

    Internet is fast and reliable. The setup is super simple and easy to do.

  31. JacobC

    A funny thing happened to me with this router. I purchased it when I moved in with a friend, and knowing we needed a good router, I purchased this and brought it home after work, only to discover my roommate had purchased the exact same router and had already set it up.

    I had to take it back to the store, but this thing is AMAZING, havent had one dropped connection yet. Highly recommend for Gamers.

  32. LarryD

    Ir may be a good router. However, I needed one that is compatible with the Norton VPN. I was told that this one was perfect. In fact it was not compatible and we had to return it.

  33. Great

    I like the router but not much the app, kinda slow.

  34. BrianS

    Works well, but the software is horrible. The UI is very slow; changes to options do not always seem to stick. If you aren’t a tinkerer, it’s probably a good “set and forget” router, but if you like to dig into things – this isn’t for you. Signal seems lackluster for the size of my home (not large).

  35. RudyM

    This router was easy to set up and the download and upload speed is managed well. I have no buffering issues and the app is easy to use.

  36. BOBBYBOXHEAD

    Must re configure network when using with starlink

  37. HowardO

    GREAT product. We have a 5,200-foot home and this router covers every inch of it.

  38. JakieG

    Great coverage and signal strength. Fast easy setup

  39. BDitty

    We’ve been getting great speeds and whole house coverage with the router. The DumaOS can be a bit daunting to figure out at first but once it’s set up with some help from some vids from Netgear and YouTube it’s dialed in. Getting really low ping playing COD. Great router and got it on sale.

  40. Gaterbug

    Here’s the minimum 50 characters required for a review. It does what it’s supposed to.

  41. Anthony

    Absolute junk non of the features I bought this for work the web ui requires me to restart whatever device I’m attempting to access it on for it to load otherwise it’s permanent loading circle, geo filtering nor qos work it’s been updated to the latest firmware yet still gives pop up to update! The WiFi range is barely further than starlinks built in one just to top it off complete waste of money I would return but I got sick and then had a death in the family after buying so missed the return window, or you better believe it would’ve been returned!

  42. BeardedWonder

    Great router for gaming, really boosted my service giving me lower latency, and no packet loss. This pair with a faster internet of 400 mbps or more is lovely for gaming as well as much more. I also have a detached garage that i get no service in but i can manage to catch wifi off this router even from there to some degree.

  43. Freebearphil

    it drops signal a lot. i have a single story home 2000sq feet and it does not get good signal in all rooms. i purchased this because i was told it was a beast one of the best im wondering if there is some thing wrong with the router.

  44. RickB

    This router works decently in my 3000 sq ft house. Watch out though, there are many hidden fees that will be needed at a later time, such as tech support & security that will amount to $300 or so in additional charges.

  45. Ra13it

    Best router ive had love the capabilities i have with it not only has improved my gamming but also my traffic for internet speeds around the house

  46. BlackLab15

    Great speed and network reliability. Easy to setup and use.

  47. DianeC

    This was vefy easy to set up, even with minimal technial knowledge.

  48. Sito

    Help alot with ping and i get better connection also has cyber security

  49. MarceloeC

    Great router.
    I have no connection issues in any of the available frequencies.
    WiFi 6 is available which is the main reason I replaced my old router.

  50. lauracare4u

    Not worth 300 bucks. If it did the dishes it might be.i wouldn’t know if there is worse or better out there.
