Reviews around software (2.33 of 5)

  • I tried the useless software, rebooted modem and router, blah blah blah several times
  • Lastly I purchased the recommended "bit-defender" defensive software ($69.95) all it did after I managed to download and install it was to confuse the issue with more complexity

Reviews around customer (2.33 of 5)

  • After encountering their terrible customer support, I found that this is standard for Netgear - any google search about Netgear RMA throws up pages after pages of people who were told to purchase phone support for them to honor the warranty.

  • Thought this was a dependable modem and a stand by your product to keep the customer happy
