Reviews around app (4.68 of 5)

  • There is a great app you download on your phone for setup
  • It was very easy to set up and the App is great for making changes.
  • Not even their own app will connect anymore and the factory password doesn't work either
  • The app had a little trouble at first but now seems to be acting as it should (it would lock up)
  • When you setup the router initially it prompts you to download this dumb genie app for managing the router.

Reviews around performance (4.56 of 5)

  • There is a reason this router has so many good reviews, easy setup and seamless performance
  • Performance still bad
  • Easy to install, easy to maintain, and performance is solid.
  • So so easy to setup , great performance so far, reliable connection and super speed
  • I can only say that the performance on the 2.4 ghz channel was really poor and overall wireless bandwidth speeds were really inconsistent no matter the range or channel selection.

Reviews around signal (4.43 of 5)

  • I was using powerline ethernet for devices that were in weak signal areas and now I use the wifi because I did a speedtest comparison and found its better to use my wifi now on those devices
  • We were using Spectrum's pretty terrible router before and having problems getting the signal to reach the guest house in the backyard
  • The router works, but the signal is weak in some parts of the house.
  • I paid a lot of money for this, it worked for a little pass 90 days, now it disconnects from devices for no reason, my 5G doesn't work
  • Strong signal in the guest house now, even the 5G comes through out there

Reviews around feature (4.15 of 5)

  • Take note that most home users don't care about the missing feature I am raving about
  • Moreover the netgear GUI allows users to set priorities to devices which are then overwritten by Dynamic QoS making it a useless and misleading feature.
  • While this wireless router has great features, it has major issues that have yet to be resolved by Netgear
  • Really enjoying the smart connect feature on it and the ability to manage the router security and bands via the Nighthawk app!
  • Great features, and cool app accessibility from your devices.

Reviews around warranty (2.85 of 5)

  • What really wasn't good, however, was that the streaming sound through the Auralic was not nearly as good as with the XR500, not even as good certainly as with the older
  • Bought it on May 7 2017 a few wekks ago barely months after warranty expired it continually started disconnecting every time someone used the wifi
  • I already paid a large amount to bring this router home, only to be forced to pay almost a 1/3rd of the original cost just to enforce Netgear to uphold their own warranty
  • Their deceptive warranty practices are truly appalling.
  • 14 months after buying this ( you know, 2 months after the warranty expired) it just shot craps.

Reviews around issue (2.38 of 5)

  • However, these past few days it seems that the issue is creeping back up as my wifi has gone out 4 times today alone
  • They have agreed to send me a replacement unit but based on what I've read on online forums, this is a well known issue that appears in this router
  • I love my new Nighthawk Router, I havent had a single issue and it
  • The most significant issue is that a firmware update 32 days after I bought the router corrupted the 5ghz radio and rendered it unusable
  • After reading the Netgear forums, it seems that this is a very common issue and reverting back to an old firmware version should fix the problem (which is unacceptable in the tech world)

Reviews around phone numb (1.54 of 5)

  • As for their web site - I tried for 45 minutes to log on and not being able to do that, I tried to find a support phone number on the site.
  • The only phone number to call for support was Amazon's.
  • and M though not cheap they are worth every penny if you want strong and trouble free Wi-Fi.
  • Seems to me, when you click a link that says "Contact Us", it should give you a phone number or at least an email address.
