It took only a few minutes to setup using the Nighthawk app on my phone. The range is good in my 3 story 1,200 ft^2 townhouse. I get the full the 200 MBPS throughout my house that my internet provider outputs.
I’ve had this router for a couple of years and as long as you do the updates routinely, even if you have it set on auto, you should check your updates anyway. This router covers my entire 1800 square-foot house.
it is a lot faster then my old router that i used to have and the old one was a netgear router i had it over 4 years then it stated going out i like the new one better
