i bought this to replace a 5 year old separate modem and router. This combined modem-router unit has made wire organization less of a headache. And it has resolved all of the connectivity problems we had before. the App is a big bonus tha helps track the connected devices and check wifi speeds
I have been using Netgear C7000v2 since last week. It has been working pretty nice. My old modem was 7 years old and router was supporting only up to 10 devices. This new modem plus router is working great with my 15 devices.
Cable modem and router in one box really helps with ease of setup. Just one call to internet provider and I was up. Really like the app for monitoring downloads/uploads to keep track of my limit.
Wifi drops multiple times per day. Many many people have the same issue....Go to the community forums and see for yourself. Apparently Netgear isn’t going to do anything about it for anyone either. Will never purchase a Netgear device again!!
