I know how to configure them for the best speed and stability.

My DSL connection is fairly slow and this modem did not improve my connection speed.

But I can always plug in the ZyXelC1100Z modem if I want uninterrupted fast speeds.

providers)(in other words, if any device is uploading to a "cloud" backup location, EVERY SINGLE other device on the network will suffer slow internet download speeds even with QOS enabled and setup appropriately.- No good AQM software on the router/modem.

Definitely recommended if you want better wifi coverage and fast speeds for a home full of wireless devices!

(We came from a house that had 40Mbps fiber) anyways, I was blaming the horrible speed and frequent dropped connections on the DSL, but it seems that wasn't the case

Great speed and coverage even on 5.2Ghz band I really recommend it.

About 6 months ago I started getting really slow download speeds intermittently.

It gets five stars in my book due to the amazing speeds and range you can connect to through WiFi

Speed is better and range has improved greatly

The speed available to me increased by about 25% over the cheap freebie router given to me by my ISP and the setup was simple and straightforward (and I'm no tech expert).

This can be very useful in case of slow Internet speeds, or to check if the ISP has indeed enabled the correct speed level on your account.

We really enjoy the distance and speed of the Nighthawk.

is terrible if you have slower upload speeds (typical of most

when I called netgear, the representative I talked to have had no idea as to what pair bonding meant (if you don't know its pretty much how the modem is set up circuit-wise that allows for it to have faster speeds but needs to be compatible with the service you are paying for)

He saw very slow speeds.

I would say to those with doubts that the speeds that can be pushed through are definitely overkill, but the quality of connection and the distance at which you can connect are the best I've seen.

and it handles them all with faster speeds than my old router.

This can be very useful in case of slow Internet speeds, or to check if the ISP has indeed enabled the correct speed level on your account.

Had to call NetGear back later to change settings to improve WiFi speed.

Nice speed and range upgrade from a previous centurylink modem.

It was worth what I paid for, the speed improved on all my wifi devices

It's been worthy every penny for the dual-bands (I use the 5ghz frequencies almost exclusively), the customization options, the great speeds/performance, etc.

I tested my speed, and I was actually getting better speed than my previous modem router.

I have to say this is the best router, from its easy to use software, great speeds,

Has excellent range and speed.

This model features a 1ghz processor, I found that a lot of people tend to focus on a routers advertised top speed as a measure of performance, but I have found that a router (Like this one), that is powered by a fast processor will give you better wireless speeds overall and faster data transfers from attached devices

It has good range and speed for the many devices our family uses

However, the speeds are awesome

Good range and speed

Amazing speed and performance.

Big range and fast speeds

It's powerful enough to run all my devices at the advertised top speed of my ISP anywhere in the house.

He hooked up a new CenturyLink modem/router (ZyXel C1100Z) and I had super fast speeds consistently without interruption.

After previous experience, the Nighthawk speed and stress free use is so, so a blessing!!

I needed a modem router that had fast enough wifi speeds to watch streaming video movies on several devices.

In summary, great router, great speeds, use the wizard to do setup

Sometimes the AC1900 would deliver good speeds of 12Mbps and sometimes it would slow down to 256k.

Great range and speed

and we would have faster speeds with our AC laptop.

Updated my router with the Nighthawk and it improved our speed considerably

However, the speeds are ABYSMAL

Good connection speeds, good wireless signal strength, good connectivity

It keeps my speeds right where they should be...even when connecting through WiFi

The speeds were reading VERY well on this device across my network after a few speed tests and browsing

Great speed compared the the Century Link provided router and much better with multiple devices connected.

I experienced the same intermittently slow speeds as before with the N600.

Love the speed

Long ago I got used to the idea that (1) I would never get my full DSL speed that I pay for (more on that later), & (2) I had to turn the modem off at least once a week to reset it and get the best internet speed I could

Poor Centurylink speed!

I still experience some slower speeds while gaming, but that could be due to my computer's hardware

Good quality excellent connect speed, very pleased with this product.

As I sit here typing on the keyboard, the download speed is 19 kb/s, EVEN SLOWER THAN THE RAGGIDITY DEVICE
