Older separate modem and router needed to be replaced. Purchased this combo modem/router and have found I have faster internet service and a sleek designed unit that does not detract from the ambiance of my living quarters. Love the Nighthawk AC1900.
Updated my old router with a new cable modem router....after researching I decided to upgrade to the Netgear Nighthawk...easy to setup and it improved the wifi for my whole house. Would highly recommend.
Works well when the device is in the same room or close to the router. The router slows down when the device is moved to another room and the interior walls in the residence are made of original adobe.
I pay for Optimum 200 because that’s the best available to me but was only clocking 80-110 Mbs after installing my c7000 I was clocking 155 -199.4 so I think it’s safe to say it’s a large improvement.
