On day one after purchasing the router we had to call the assistance hot line, to my surprise the wait wasn’t very long. Unfortunately I did not jot name down but a male person in California assisted us with making sure all wiring from computer, modem and router were done correctly and then helping us with all steps on the computer. Your technician was very knowledgeable, and very patient with us as our computer knowledge is limited. This person did not let us go until all was working and then for us to ask any questions. His patience was over and beyond. Think all personnel in this area for a great job and being understanding.
The product itself works great, my only suggestion is to give much better detailed setup instructions; the most difficult part is getting NetGear devices connected to the local network. I sat on hold for 10-15 minutes, and kept messing with this part of the setup and finally figured it out on my own. And that was only because I had the same issue setting up a NetGear router a couple weeks earlier.
Horrible service with multiple shut downs. My games would lag on my gaming computer unlike the previous ASUS router. Plugged the old one back in and intend to get rid of this router. Did not work well at all.
