Posted by: Keenan Riddell
My router only sits about 20 ft 25 ft at the very most from my wireless TV and it struggles to keep a signal the application is frustrating to use it has a lot of crashes sometimes I'm not even able to sign in it'll give me an error message saying that routers not in range or it's not connected. I wouldn't recommend this router to anybody. I'm currently looking for something better.

I find this network company very reliable with high quality product equipment and fast smooth running service that's very efficient. I would recommend to anyone to have an in home and office equipment service set up. Thanks Netgear!
The set up and installation process was so easy and flawless. But more importantly was the range extension. My router is in the office in the back of my house, and my entertainment room is in the front. Streaming shows would sometimes be slow and pixelated. The Netgear AC1750 has totally resolved that issue. Definitely would recommend it.
Called NETGEAR when I was having difficulty getting my new router up and running. Customer service person was very knowledgeable, helpful and patient while coaching me thru the setup. He also connected me directly to Xfinity for the final connection and it worked! The only area I’m having issues with right now are my two WiFi boxes that are in addition to my Xfinity cable box. Do you have any recommendations to keep them up and running? They’re very finicky—thank you! Michelle R.
I used to have a poor signal in my bedroom. But since I started using this extender, it boosted the signal from my router to the highest point it could go making a connection to the internet and different sites happen quickly. No more pauses while watching videos and such.
It is a decent option for the price, it will keep your traffic under 400mbs though, if you're running lots of streaming devices and games at the same time, you may want to move up from this particular model.
Works fairly well most of the time but there are times when internet spins which can be frustrating. Still, it's better than no internet. Also the RJ45 light remains amber.
