It seems to work good at times. The guest band seems to come in and out at times. It also is disturbing the integrated circle filter. Which is causing the circle app not to work properly. I have had issues with the netgear nighthawk app before however it seems to really not function properly with the extender. I am probably going to have to reset the router again in hopes it will go back to functioning properly.

I bought this to help with coverage in my 2 story home. I have Xfinity 5g modem and needed the extender to provide wider coverage. It’s not doing what it’s supposed to do. Signal is still weak.

I had an older NETGEAR since 2017 and wanted to upgrade to EX6250. After several installations without success, I returned the unit.

Connection drops consistently, a few times per day. Amber light goes on/off frequently. Had to use a different router which is working without issues.

I purchased this router to replace my old modem and router system. The transition with my ISP was seamless, and I got this thing up and running very swiftly. Now having used it for over a week, I am extremely satisfied with it. On the backend, there is a lot of excellent options for port-forwarding and the like, making specified usage exceptionally easy to program. The function and range are both fantastic. It replaced a system with peripheral two nodes, and it doesn't skip a beat. I have had no issues with it since I have installed it, which could not be said for the old system within the same amount of time. I highly recommend this router/modem for anyone in a fairly large single family home.
