I replaced an Apple AirPort Extreme with this router. Performs all the same functions and has a greater Wi-Fi speed with the 5ghz radio. So far, I haven’t been able to use time capsule to use the attached USB hard drive as a backup drive. Maybe after I fiddle with it some more it’ll serve as a time capsule file server as well.
Speeds are said to be high and I have a 800 mbps plan but only get about 180-200

The router itself seems to work fine. The setup with the app is a bit strange, it requires you to create an account with Netgear. But you can also set up without that, just connecting to the router's web site; so it's the user's choice.
Top notch quality. works great speed is fast. easy to set up. downloading mobile app helped with the set up of the unit. Nice to have. I would recommend this product, to family and friends.
This router is super easy to setup and configure. The range and speeds a good even with obstacles. We are using this in our office and shop and have several devices connecting without having any interference or device drops.
