NETGEAR NIGHTHAWK is working flawlessly! Am so happy I chose this modem/router! I totally appreciated the great assistance I received from the team that was on line. Thank you NEATGEAR. The Nighthawk AC 1900 has really increased the speed of my computer too!
I love the speed and the reliability, I have no problems other than these, the plug is very loose in the plug in of my power strip so if it gets hit just wrong the whole thing restarts and it seems to take forever to restore the connection. Everything else is fantastic!
Not worth it at all, just keep your decade old modem/router

Bought this and installed. Got it registered with my ISP on my 1G service. Router could only output 30mbps on 5G and 65mbps on 2.4. Tried changing to lower channels, rebooting etc to no avail. Called netgear, they told me I should only expect to see 150 to 300mbps maximum anyway. They told me to change the channel to the channel I already had selected, then unplug it for 1 minute and try it. Same result. I bagged it and returned it and bought an Arris Surfboard for arpund the same price and couldn't be more pleased. It actually gets 1G unlike this Netgear garbage. If you can only expect 150 to 300mbps on it then dont advertise 1.3G. Also if it can only do 30mbps then maybe say that. The decade old Arris I had could run circles around this thing.
I bought this modem after having to replace my old modem, which I’ve had for a couple of years now. This new Nighthawk modem is fantastic, with fast speeds and easy setup.
I bought this modem due to shipping delays with an xfinity modem and it was ready to set up right out of the box the prompts made it easy and was able to immediately add it to my xfinity account. Not a single issue and runs great for gaming or just watching streaming services
