    NETGEAR AC1200 Dual Band Smart WiFi Router, Gigabit Ethernet (R6230)

    • All devices lost connection (wired and wireless)
    • Thus far I have some 4 hard wired and 5 WiFi devices connected and have had no issues with traffic or connections
    • I guess maybe I'm just real bad at reading listings, but it's basically pointless with a gigabit connection if you're looking to be wired as well.
    • a second one wired to it?I cannot believe it does not work
    • Finally went through all the various checks with Mediacom, and they said our internet signal is fine, must be the router because when connect hard wire to my laptop I get internet.
    • My old house is small but it has plaster, lathe wire mess walls and they aren't friendly for wifi radio.
    • Mb/s through the far reaches of a 2 story house and 64 Mb/s in a room just down the hall from the router which is just as fast as a direct wire connection to the cable modem.
    • I simply switched to a wired connect and problem is solved
    • When I finally got the first one up and running the speed was terrible both wired and WiFi
    • And to be perfectly fair, the wired and 2.4Ghz bands/channels are still going like gangbusters.
    • Installation was a breeze once we discovered we had a bad cable wire.
    • Be prepared to run more hard wire connections.
    • both hard wired and over WiFi
    • To paraphrase the wizard, this router could have the slogan "I am Nighthawk X4S, the great and powerful"I purchased the R7800 to replace a failing R7000
    • I also don't have to reset it daily to attempt to increase my speed as I regularly get faster than I'm supposedly paying for
