Pretty dang good

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] For it's price point, it's an excellent WiFi 7 router. I was already about to purchase it, but this particular model went on a black Friday special as well. As with most people, Internet service was starting to charge for equipment rental and as I like to keep monthly expenses down, I decided to get my own equipment again. Setup is easy and straightforward. I only had one big issue that wasn't on the router per se.
I spent around 5 hours on the phone and off trying to get service going through my new modem and router and determined the modem was just fine and wasn't the issue. The router just wouldn't connect to the Internet, wired or wireless. At first I could connect to the router through my cellphone. But shortly after, it would glitch out trying to load the router settings/setup page. I knew it was in the settings and I needed to change an address around, but couldn't access that. I told my ISP to turn back on the old modem/router(theirs) while I figured a solution. I plugged the old back in and wired the Netgear into it. Within seconds, the app notified me that it changed the address to match the providers service. Then it started to update the firmware. After giving it a bit, I reconnected it and everything was working. My ISP is Optimum by the way
My advice to anyone else is to just plug it into your current service if you can and let it update and possibly alter any settings it needs to automatically so you don't need to have a goose chase like I did.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I set the router up as an access point in the garage. Speed and range are fantastic

Solid price, fully capable

This can handle the everyday needs of most any user. I play games frequently and stream video on multiple devices, and this router handles very well. Also, it handles more GB/S than most people purchase for their internet plan. The price is perfect, and it’s better to buy a “lesser” product when it can handle more than what you are capable of doing with your internet and modem. Strongly recommended.

Great router!

I had an older router that caused my wifi signal to be spotty and would occasionally drop signal all together. I upgraded to this router, which has super strong antennas. I now have signal all over my house and my router is in the basement!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Fast Wi-Fi

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Got this for someone else and it didn't fit their needs. Tried it in my house and the wifi was 2-5 times faster than my existing router, so I decided to keep it. Very fast wi-fi!

I upgraded from a 18 year old router. I didn't know what I was missing. The connection time is super fast and reliable.
