Bottom line: highly recommend this router for anyone looking for an easy, inexpensive upgrade. My last Netgear router lasted 8 years, but I recently had to upgrade when Netgear notified me that my old router was no longer being supported. I have had this router for about a week, and so far, everything has been great! It has significantly increased my WiFi speeds, and I love how much control there is in the app. It is great to have easy control over the WiFi name and password, and see in real time all the devices that are actively connected to the WiFi. It is reassuring knowing that you can keep your network more secure via the app.
Compact and inexpensive. Easy set-up for the average user.

Nice formfactor but not sure about the signal strength compared to R6400. So far, performance is adequate. Would have really liked a utility to transfer all my settings from the old router to the new. My customization took some time to get entered. Why not make a cfg script that can transfer the important settings?
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is the best router i have ever bought. It's super fast and setup was quick. Couldn't ask for any more from a router.
