Not as good as my old router. Had to upgrade due to my one being outdated.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

It was time to upgrade my Netgear router that I’d bought over 19 years ago. Changing was quite easy and very seamless. Changing all our home equipment that uses WiFi took a little time but was successful on all 12 units. Everything is running great again.

Set up was very easy. Instructions clear. Did not take very long. Was replacing older model of Netgear counter. Significant increase of download. Almost all devices connected automatically!! Thanks

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This router has really increased my wifi across the house and is much faster than my old router. Setup was very easy with the NetGear app. Just follow instruction.

not a drop in replacement

I replaced another router and now I find some of my connected devices no longer are able to access the internet. Some Echo devices work, others do not. Probably needs some configuration work, but I wish I didn't have to spend the time doing all that.
The WiFi router was easy to set up and is providing excellent connectivity in the entire house (two story colonial). We have not encountered any bandwidth issues even with 13 devices operating concurrently.
