The issue with the Nighthawk is that it constantly looses connectivity with smart devices regardless of signal strength.

This has been a game changer for me - I like having everything all in once device.

If you're planning to use this modem with SMART devices like light bulbs, Amazon Echo, networked speakers, etc

YouTube taught me to reduce my mode and all devices worked well

The are many new devices coming available

These little things do not hinder the function of my smart devices or slow down my WiFi experience but for the price, I was expecting a bit more so one star deducted.

it's just a bad defective device
