Great WiFi Coverage

Really nice upgrade to a previous Netgear router. Coverage for a 3000 Sq Ft house is excellent. Solid app to manage the network remotely. The only downside is the push to get additional security products in the app. Understand it is part of the business.

GREAT PIECE OF GEAR

I ABSOLUTELY STAND BY THIS PRODUCT. I HAVE BEEN USINGNTHIS FOR 3 YRS WITH NO ISSUES. HIGHLY RECOMMEND WITH FULL CONFIDENCE.
Overall a nice product, but randomly will cause web pages to fail to load. If you reload the page it will then work flawlessly.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

An awesome upgrade

My old Netgear dual-band router had seen better days and so I decided to give the R8000P a go.
The initial highlight of the features for me was beam forming, which helped me overcome WiFi dead zones in my home.
Then a few other features stood out and impressed me. The ability to check the speed at the front end of my network, the improved logging with attack identifications, and the level of network control and information that’s available from within the Nighthawk app. On top of those things, I was also pleased to see the same familiar web interface that I prefer to use while implementing more complex router configurations such as subnetting, vlans, address reservations, and internet/WiFi scheduling.
I’m still in the process of testing Netgear Armor during the free month trial that was offered, but I can say that I already like it and will be purchasing a full year subscription. Previously, I was paying for a Fing subscription to analyze my network and help to find/track vulnerabilities and issues. But now, my Nighthawk has the same abilities built into Netgear Armor. One feature that I would still like to see is the ability to receive notifications when a device goes offline.
The Nighthawk app also has the option of utilizing Circle for parental controls, which includes managing your child’s internet usage, device time and content restrictions. Something I plan to work with more moving forward.
Overall, a Nighthawk router is a worthwhile upgrade and has convinced me to spend more on my home networking in the future. The features and performance differences are honestly worth it.

Decent router but…

I can’t update the firmware and the router seems to be dying now. Some of the 5 G networks will just stop working or randomly rename the SSID, effectively dropping everything attached to that network. Kind of annoying.
