Hooked this product up to replace my spectrum one. Wow. Didn’t know what I was missing. Super easy to set up, runs like a charm! Don’t think, get one!

Great Buy

Had been thinking of buying a new router and I am so glad I did. The RS500 has not disappointed. Always have a good connection with all of my many devices connected. I have 2 devices hard wired in and a couple dozen connected via WiFi, and it has not been hindered once by all of the devices. Switching over from one router to the next was seamless. I would recommend this router to anyone thinking of upgrading. Definitely worth it!!

Nighthawk RS500
on January 1, 2026

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I purchased this as a replacement for a much older Nighthawk router that I had. The new RS500 has far exceeded my expectations. I have full coverage of my entire home from the basement to the entire main floor. There is no loss of signal anywhere in the house. I would strongly recommend it to anyone needing to upgrade their wifi router.

New Router
on January 2, 2026
Posted by: Michael Thieme
Had a 10 year old Netgear router that worked very well until 6 months ago. Had a hiccup every once in a while. Added a few cameras and it did a good job, but just couldn't keep up.
Netgear had sent a notice about no longer supporting it and a recommendation for a replacement.
Got it, installed it and all is good again. Seems to be no trouble now keeping up with all devises.
Install and set up was easy. Getting all devices
