    • It's a great looking router but the performance is terrible
    • But for $500 you don't expect something decent... you expect something amazing, and you are willing to overlook it's flaws when at least you get great performance out of it, but this doesn't deliver any of that
    • The performance is great.
    • We got the new Netgear Router to improve our internet speed and overall wifi performance and did it ever do the job!!
