Outstanding

I enjoy my nighthawk router because it's fast. It provides me with updates of what is going on with my router. I enjoy the fact that I do not have to use the router of the internet provider. I can look at my app and see how many devices are using my router and control them. It helps out a ton especially for those whom WFH; it's a necessity.

Great router for busy household

The Nighthawk is by far the best router we have ever used! We are a household of 6 and each person has a device that uses wifi. In addition to those devices we stream our TV and movies. We never experience any interruptions or delays in our service.

Affordable with easy setup

The router was very easy to set up and was within our budget. So far, it has maintained a fairly steady connection with our cable modem, with only a bit of "skipping" when devices sign in or out. Worth the price and the security software seems reputable.

WiFi back again

I was having trouble trying to use my laptop and phone to use the internet. My last hope was getting my Netgear and once I installed it, in minutes I was back up and running any time of the day. Thank you Netgear.

Best Router ever!

We recently purchased the Netgear Nighthawk AC2300 Cybersecurity Router (RS400) to replace a different router we had been using. Immediately noticed what an awesome difference it made not only in our computer use as well as phone, security and entertainment usage. The speed is incredibly fast and was easily installed by us 70 old timers! Movie streaming has no frustrating buffering moments, smartphones and security system connected quickly and if there is a reboot everything connects immediately. Unlike our old router. This is truly a High-Performance WiFi router and we can wholeheartedly recommend it, it's worth the extra cost in total enjoyment and peace of mind with the added 3 years of Netgear Armor anti-virus and data theft protection. We Love it!

Works as intended

The Netgear Nighthawk AC2300 was a replacement for an old Nighthawk router that had seen better days. Setup went flawlessly and it just works!

Crummy management software

Produce works fine. I get emails to update the software version but when I try it tells me that it is up to date. However when I check version number they are way different numerically.

Great Distance and Speed

Overall great router, has awesome download and upload speeds. Only issue I have is the the armor services sometimes block basic connections for the games I play. I've been kicked from games likely due to the router's harsh settings, even after changing them. I still recommend for anyone who is PC or console gaming .

Must install cell phone app to install. Even if deleted after install, who knows what spyware has been installed. Otherwise, OK router.

Purchased/ installed Netgear Nighthawk router when my son and daughter-in-law came to stay for a week. I needed a powerful router to provide service throughout the house, so we could all telecommute without any down time or buffering. The Netgear Nighthawk router has exceeded my expectations!
