Reviews around tech support (4.74 of 5)

  • I have tried the free 90 tech support and cannot reach anyone
  • Lack of expertise, no apparent connection back to qualified engineersThough tech support were friendly to work with, and had the best intentions, they generally appeared underqualified to deal with the operation of the router, and not empowered to escalate real issues back to real engineers for qualified answers to technical issues
  • I attempted to reach NetGear Tech Support, and waited on the phone for an hour...never got through
  • Tech support is a joke
  • Anyways... this router was very easy to setup and I didn't have to call tech support:
