This is a great router for what I had in mind. I use it for 3 devices and I enjoy the using the app for easy set up and monitoring devices and all. It takes a bit of time to set up but it’s for good reason.
Before purchasing my NETGEAR AC1750, my playstation 4 was running at a whopping 117.4kbps. It was terrible, I could barely play my games in my upstairs man cave. But once I purchased the NETGEAR AC1750, my wifi improved drastically and my playstation 4 started running at 100mbps. For me that was amazing, it was exactly what I needed. The only reason I did not give it a 5 star was because the wifi extender did cut out once. If I could make one suggestion, it would be to suggest to the customer to turn on automatic updates for their extender because I did not the first time and had no idea there was an update until I one day went to check the speed of the wifi and it alerted me there was an update. I would definitely recommend this product to my friends and family if their wifi is running slowly.
Upgraded from an old “dinosaur” that we had owned for years. Now I no longer listen to my family argue over who’s using up all the band width. The gamer is on his own channel and the rest of us are content with watching tv shows and movies now with no problems!
The router works well and I it came at a decent price. The instructions for set up were not very clear and I had to make some guesses. I had to go to manual set-up, after trying to scan the barcode into my phone. It was taking a long time and I had no progress indicator to identify if I was doing it right.
