Review Summary

After using probably ten or twelve routers from various Internet service providers in the past, and a slow out-dated PC, I decided to build my fantasy future PC network for a video editing computer. Being in a computer field (digital full-flight simulators for over 30 years, at one of the world's top airlines), I had access to several tech expert coworkers who are what even I call

This product is amazing as all are all the products, I only exclusively have bought Netgear for the past 20 years. Unfortunately this router continues to try to switch to the 60GHz and there is no way to stop it

I won't lie, I've had experiences with a lot of different routers and access points, but this one puts them all to shame! I can get full signal at the far side of my lawn, and the ping is unbelievable compared to cheaper models. This router is also packed full of fun and useful features that I'm sure you'll find a use for!

I upgraded from a TP-Link router and immediately noticed improvements in both signal strength and range. Parts of my home that had previously been unreliable coverage, were now fully reachable. I also noticed that the connection was no longer dropping and I could use bandwidth intense applications like video chat without fear. This is a quality product, loaded with features and I don't think I will need to upgrade for a few years.

I've used several WiFi routers in the 14 years I've been in my home and this is by far the best. The signal strength and speed surpass the Xfinity modem\router, WRT54G (factory and modified), the Ubiquitis Dream Machine and AmpliFi HD Routers. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a WiFi Router.

I'm really happy with the R9000 not only for it's immensely power antennas that help me maintain signal throughout my home, but also for it's ease of setup and mobile app support. I love that I can check the app for any relevant settings I may need at that moment, from my phone.

I have had it for a couple of years already and so far no issues. The 10 GB port I wish there was a service that could use it. At

Really strong signal at long distances in the yard. Great security. I haven't had any other outside intrusions, unlike my previous router. The extremely large size seems to be its biggest downfall.

After I bought security cameras for my home, I found that the router provided by the ISP slowed to a crawl and made accessing the web unusable. I bought the NetGear Nighthawk gaming router and the problem was completely solved. Five cameras at 4 megabits/sec of continuous streaming is handled beautifully, no slowdowns at all!

The Nighthawk X10 was really easy to setup using the app. Great product

We went from having the slowest speed in the area, to lightening fast speeds. No more buffering on the Disney Channel.

I love the speeds and strength of this router. It's perfect for what I need it for plus it's one of the few routers that support a Plex server without needing to deal with more complicated setup options.

We use it in our office to control 50 wired devices with unmanaged switch and about 50 wireless including surveillance cameras. We use vpn feature as well to connect local network with another branch. Works 24/7 during last year

Great router with really good range. Use it for business purposes and it handles all the devices I have. Usually at any given time I have over 26 devices, either hard wired or using WiFi connected to it. Definitely worthy for any small business and even better for home use.

I was looking to use the 60ghz Wi-Fi with my Quest VR headset. But it is not compatible.

My speed has increased greatly w/ improved streaming. I has been the best router so far.

When I first got the router, the firmware WAS ROUGH.. for a long while. Now they seem to have a grasp on the issues and router works as expected. Took a while, but all smiles now.

Solid coverage of my 1800 sq ft home and back yard. Recently moved from cable-based ISP to a Gigabit Fiber line, and it handles all the speed. Wireless speeds over 650mbps, while cat 5e/6 wired lines run at 940 - 1,000mbps. I wish it had the Circle integration, but otherwise its great.

A few days after the warranty ran out, the unit overheated and died. The device gets two stars because it was great when it worked but cost far too much to recommend buying when it will only last a year... and a few days.
