I am getting better wireless speed than wired! My wired speed is still good at 100 Mbps but my wireless is getting around 110mbps. The ease of installation is also a plus. The apps let's me change my SSID name and password with no trouble at all. I can see who is connected and even block devices. It has a parent control feature if you have kids. The range is perfect for my apartment. If you have a bigger house you might need to set up repeaters but for a all house it's good. Only thing I'm finding hard to do is hide my SSID.
We've been using the xfinity gateway modem for awhile and I was tired of the bottlenecking issue with all the things we have on out WiFi. The nighthawk was a recommendation my friend gave to me and I love it! The freedom to change setting and prioritize which devices need connection first with the QoS is a dream. If anyone is ever debating on upgrade I would recommend the nighthawk in a heart beat.
We decided to buy our own equipment and quit paying rental fees for equipment, this router along with a matching cable modem is definitely a HUGE upgrade to the cable companies equipment, we have a 3600 sq ft home and the modem/router are centrally located and each floor of the home gets great 5g connection, I check our speed vs the neighbors and we are almost double (one of our neighbors is the head of IT at a local hospital). I'd definitely recommend this to anyone looking for an inexpspensive upgrade for better internet connection/speed.
Needed a router /gateway to replace the issued Frontier Fios one that just was not cutting it to stream live feeds using the PS Vue service. Paired this AC2300 Nighthawk with the Netgear AC750 wifi extender and it is doing a great job.Currently using two gen-4 apple TV devices plus all the other wifi devices in the house and this router is keeping up just fine.Highly recommended if trying to use one of the online live TV services but you will also have be running a stable high speed internet connection. It was a easy setup using the Nighthawk app and was pretty much plug and play.
We've been using our internet providers router but the signal strength was weak in our 1800 Sq. Ft. house. Turned our ISP router into bridge mode and added the Netgear Nighthawk to our network. I can't be happier with the wifi signal and features offered with this router. Setup was easy.
