Got this to extend the coverage for the backyard and it works great. Unable to connect to the main router I the basement but the AC1900 fixed the problem.

My router has been on use for a while and it is very decent but nowadays it's bit old so sometimes lagging a bit and it don't have any updates

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

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

I've used this for many years without any connectivity issues. It's handled my gigabyte line very well with many devices at the same time.

I love the ability to have my own separate WiFi and then a Guest WiFi for the kids and others that doesn't affect me.

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.

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.

One of the antennas has lost its bearing so it no longer stands upright but otherwise good signal

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.

I purchased this used and was excited to get it working. All went smoothly for set up and everything seemed to doing what it is supposed to. Now, it keeps turning on and off. Sometimes I have to unplug and plug it in again. I wish I could say better.

I originally bought this when we had Google Fibre and was getting less than 1% less speed from the WiFi than what I got from Ethernet. It was used in a 3200 sq' ranch and with the router roughly in the middle of the house I still had minimal loss at the ends of the house. I have also used it in a 2100 sg' house with 500Mips service and have even lower loses.

This is our second one. We just got it March25,2025 and it took a while and several calls to get it set up because I know nothing about such thing. Now I can't find the regular password, only the admin info which doesn't help me when trying to set up a new account. They want a regular password. I am very frustrated. Usually my other half does all this but he has dementia so bad he can't remember anything. If you can help I would sure appreciate it.

The router itself works really good when I switched to it and was quite easy to setup. The Nighthawk app pretty much set it up itself.

So this was a minor upgrade from the previous model and I have to say I'm very pleased- it's much faster.
