The one router to solve all problems

I have been having an issue with my cable companies internet. I spoke with a friend and found out it was the eero routers they gave me with my package. I found this router at a goodwill and hooked it up. It was easy after going to the website and finding the admin password and username. Very simple set up and zero issues with my internet afterwards. I definitely recommend this product if your cable providers internet drops a lot. It helps with lag issues and outages. I am using it as a bypass but it does the job perfectly.

Reliable

I've had my Nighthawk AC1900 for seven years. The service has always been reliable and the unit has had no issues.

Nice Router

Been using for several years without issue. High speed router runs dozen of devices and provides the high speed data my kids need for gaming. Recommend.

Good product that needs improvement

I had a lot of trouble to access the router management with the Nighthawk app. Also, I wanted to install VPN client and had a lot of challenges. Native VPN client would have been very helpful.

Excellent Router

The Netgear R7000 router is the best router I have used yet. It has never had a problem connecting wireless devices. I have bought newer routers that were NOT Netgear, but they had problems connecting 2.4GHz only items to them. My Netgear router doesn't have that problem. I have found out that they combined both 5GHz and 2.4GHz together so that only 5GHz is the only one listed. Even if i split them in settings, they still won't connect to the 2.4GHz. So I still use my Netgear router. So many things still use 2.4GHz wireless only so I won't be changing anytime soon. Thank You Netgear. Keep up the great work.

Excellent investment

I have had this for quite a few years (before COVID) and it's still going strong and is up to par with today's standards. Great investment.

poor

No QR code to scan on the back, can't get the app to work. Who would have guessed when buying you needed an app. I have 2 nether products and would not recommend them. Still can't get it to work, no followup by email that is helpful. Very complicated to set up, over my head, even with support on the phone.

Gets the job done

I've been using the NETGEAR Nighthawk AC1900 (R7000) for a while, and it's been rock solid. The WiFi speed and stability are great, especially on the 5GHz band, and setup was quick and easy. It handles multiple devices smoothly, and the USB ports are a nice bonus for sharing drives. The only downsides are its bulky size and slightly dated interface, plus it's not WiFi 6, so it's showing its age a bit. Still, for a WiFi 5 router, it's powerful, reliable, and great value for the price.

Unit works, but isn't as secure as I would like out of the box. But can be hardened reasonably easy.

Works great

For a long time I switched through routers but none gave me the speeds I needed until I switched to the Nighthawk. My Nighthawk finally gave me the internet speeds I was supposed to be getting and having the dual band features makes everything easier

Glitchy app and router issues

The app is very glitchy. Last time I had a hard time resetting the router. I had to try multiple times before I was able to complete a full reset. Also, the WiFi button sometimes gets stuck.

Above expectations

My quantum fiber provided router ( advertised as 380 wifi) was not working as expected so was my old ARRIS. I bought the Nighthawk and everything changed. The range was twice better and the speed ten time better. I don't regret my buy.

Not happy

I was not happy and returned router. I was on the phone with 2 different customer service reps at 2 different times and neither one is able to help me get up and running. I spent well over 3 hours trying. So back it went to Amazon.
