Great Range Router
on May 30, 2022
Posted by: Anonymous
Recently purchased this router from a neighbor who didn't need it anymore. It is currently being paired with an Arris SB6183 modem, and I'm consistently enjoying great speed and range. The app is also super convenient, as it allows me to access wireless network settings from my phone.
My old modem/router would often crash and require a reset and it was no longer supported by my ISP. This modem/router is perfect for my needs, was easy to set up and it is reliable.
I love my NETGEAR Wi-Fi Mesh Range Extender! With the app it was easy to connect and setup. Had one small issue and the netgear support was fast and awesome! Had it remedied quickly and efficiently. Take my advice, purchase the extended support plan, even one time is worth it!!!
The setup was easy but the device's effective range is less than the Netgear router it replaced. Had to add an extender to sustain a signal in the room where I work most often.
