Buying this router helped our internet considerably working from home. We had to go and stop our U-verse internet router for this router to work but once we took care of that and turned off our other devices, the app was easy to follow and configure. Would buy again for my home.
I’ve installed this product in my parents home. It was easy to install and setup. However, there maybe an issue with the router that causing connection consistency issues with the extender.
This is faster and better than my previous NETGEAR router. This upgraded router opened up extra apps/channels for TV viewing, which is good. New router set up through Nighthawk is still complex and needs simplification. However, without registration, tech help was not available quickly. This tech help needs to be improved for not so tech savvy persons like me. Thank you.
