No matter where you are, bedroom to backyard, you’ll experience a stronger, faster connection with this tri-band NETGEAR router. Get rid of lag, freezing, and buffering while you game, stream and more on multiple devices.

Well I could tell you I have over twenty years in networking and workstation and server support and a lot of certifications but I am not :) (but I do) because that doesn't make a review no one knows it all in today's real world.
So..
I have a wrk1900ac that I was using before this purchase and I tested it against this nighthawk X8 that will be replacing it .

Setup :
Is a breeze very user friendly and also nice Gui for those who want to do more customization. You can litteriatly take this out of the box plug it in and it is good to go as the networks have all been setup with a unique password to the router you purchase .

Range:
Wow this blew my wrt1900ac away. I can get almost the same speed right next to us as in my back yard or my neighbors front yard. The Wrt1900 drops fast and couldn't connect in my front yard . This is with testing only in the 2.4 ghz channel on the 5 Ghz channels it was the same as if I was standing right next to it .

Multiple devices :
Samsung ja9500 4K tv, three iPads two iPhones streaming Netflix or mgo at The same time and there was no Lag no buffering . This killed my wrt1900ac .

Copying 6 and 8 Gb video files from laptop to wireless PC . Was amazing actually beat the linksys wet1900ac .
I was amazed because no one had ever been able to beat it copying files to its 3.0 USB. I used a WD 3.0 drive connected to the both routers.

All I can say is Wow this is definitly worth the price and the looks alone are amazing. You have to see it as pictures do it no justice. The anntenas are huge and the cool blue lights one each one was a nice design .
If you can offord it Buy it
