Purchased this router to replace an older one that has seen better days. The Nighthawk R7000P was very easy to setup and configure to my needs. The range is great, my older router struggled to reach the farther rooms of my home where this one reaches beyond. I will recommend this product to anyone looking for a new wireless router.
Range extenders didn't work. Once installed all devices in every corner of the house were online with no stumbling. My only complaint was the Nighthawk app did not suggest calling my ISP when I could not connect to the Internet. The app only suggested turning off/on the modem and checking the cables to my modem.
I'm a cable wire cutter, so I need a router that can handle constant streaming on multiple devices. Since upgrading to this router I have noticed that my 4K streaming is perfect. Also like having the ability to make changes via the smart phone app. I am also very happy about being being able to use the router as a VPN server. Now I can have a secure encrypted connection when I need to use my laptop in public places like Starbucks. This is a fantastic feature and so far it's been working flawlessly. This is a lot of router for a reasonable price.
The Nighthawk AC2300 has been a great router for us. We have a large 2 story 3000 sq ft home. Our previous router was not dual band, did not reach more that 50% of our home, and struggled when multiple people were on the WiFi. The Nighthawk has good coverage throughout the entire house and even outside. The dual band is a big plus too! It Nighthawk performs well even when multiple people are using the WiFi simultaneously and I am so glad to have "guest" accounts available for visitor use. It was easy to set up and I love the monitoring and information that the free app offers as well.
This router was a snap to get up and running, using the Netgear-supplied app. Throughput was equal to the bandwidth supplied by the ISP. Glad to have bought this router.
