Had to exchange product after two weeks of working with tech support to see if I could get it to work with Google Webpass. Turns out it had a bad ethernet port. Ended up buying a second less expensive Netgear router and was set up in minutes.

Nighthawk 5400 is amazing. This router has amazing reach. We live on a lake and our doc is about 125 feet from the house. Our WiFi reaches the dock so we can stream videos at night under moon light. Great product. Very impressed.
Replaced a NetGear N900 with this new Nighthawk bad boy. Used to be with the old N900 we would lose 75% of our speed on 2.4 and 50% on 5G. Just upgraded to 300 mbps business. Getting 333 mbps on 5 G 20 feet away from this new Nighthawk! Have an old Honeywell Thermostat that only connects to 2.4 54 mbps. Nice to be able to set Channel 1 2.4 54 mbps and have our older WiFi Thermostat connect and function fine! Super happy with this new Nighthawk Router and would highly recommend to anyone! A
