[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this router to replace my old nighthawk router and couldn't be more impressed with the performance. I can stream, download, and game online simultaneously with no stuttering or interruptions. It's a literal game changer!

Faster than the Flash?

Needed a new router to use as an access point and saw this model on Amazon. We just upgraded to 1 Gbps speed at the house and needed to extend the signal upstairs on the opposite end of the house. I saw this Nighthawk 7 (RS500) had numerous positive reviews later- a lot of people vouched for it’s speed, coverage, functionality, and easy set up through the Nighthawk mobile app. Although the latter isn’t an issue for me (I work in tech), I opted for this router because of the bands - 2.4, 5, and 6 GHz - coverage area, the latest wifi 7 tech, and security features even though I am using this as an AP (I may create a separate network later and switch back to “Router Mode” allowing you to access the Nighthawk’s customizable security features). I swapped out all my CAT5 cables with some new CAT8s and everything hooked up to LAN was super fast - SpeedTest outputs of 700 Mbps to a little over 1Gbps of speed depending on the time of day. More importantly, wi-fi speeds didn’t disappoint - as I moved all over my house, front-yard, and back-yard, no issues of the network dropping. So glad I moved on from my Apple home networking eco-system to this Netgear 7 router. If you’re on the fence about upgrading to this model, don’t be - worth every dollar!

Excellent coverage, and rock-solid stability. Gaming is lag-free, streaming is flawless, and setup is a breeze with the Nighthawk app. Also, the NETGEAR Armor add extra peace of mind.

This router solved my problems. I'm no longer getting constant stuttering, or artifacting when streaming from my pc to my steam deck, or my PS5 to my steam deck. Definitely recommend is that's what you like to do.

Ideal Replacement Router
on March 3, 2025
Posted by: Mark U
The easy replacement of my old Nighthawk was seamless with easy to read instructions regarding SSID naming to minimize complications as well as smart connect for splitting up wifi networks. Many of my devices only work with the 2.4Ghz network.
