Overall, this router is faster than my old dlink 655. The range is about the same, but the wifi signals seem stronger so wireless devices connect at faster speeds. Seems to be a bug in the admin screen regarding the Internet connection. Says it's not connected but everything works as far as I can tell. Tech support thinks it's just a bug in the software displaying It incorrectly. It was easy to install and the addition of two 5Ghz radios helps with load balancing slower devices. Updated 2 pc's with AC wifi adapters and seeing 480 Mbps connect speeds. Pretty nice.

This is the worst router I have ever purchased. Nothing has been simple with this router. Ive called tech support twice and on both occasions it was a struggle to understand the the foreigner who was helping me. I have no issue with someone from another country helping me provided they understand what I am saying. To top all the challenges I have had I read a story a few days ago stating that Negear has a huge security issue with their routers. Yesterday I receive an email from them with a patch but to install the patch you have to go to wwwrouterloginnet and every time I try no matter what browser I use I get a page that says: This site can't be reached. Well isn't that peachy! How am I supposed to update my security setting? I am now pursuing a refund!! Installing a router and doing the occasional update shouldn't be this difficult.Read full review

I got this router to take advantage of its speed and increased range. I have not been disappointed with the speed, as it is a great improvement over the one it replaced. Range is another matter. I had hoped to get enough reach to eliminate the bridge router my long ranch house necessitates. Bristling with four antennas, it certainly suggests superior range. Instead, it barely reaches out further than the cheap model it replaced, so the bridge router had to stay. Setup was a bit of a problem. It had an address conflict with equipment elsewhere in the system which I had not encountered before. It gave no diagnostic help, and a visit to Netgear's support page was no help either. Just had to hack through it. Summary: buy it for the speed, not the range.

First, Trying to setup the router initially wirelessly was really hard. For some reason none of my devices would get internet. Then one would but the other ones wouldn't. Finally, after trying everything that I could find out online, I just reset the router. Then I hooked the router directly up to my laptop with the cable to do the setup. That was really simple and it worked fine after that. So If you purchase it, you might want to connect the router up to your laptop/pc with the cable for the initial installation. After it was finally installed I did a speedtest and got three times the speed of a recent Linksys router that I previously purchased. So it is fast!

I made an attempt to flash the firmware with Tomato, but ultimately just ended up updating the native Netgear firmware. It does what I need it to do very well and I use the 1 Gbps switch ports built-in with the Spectrum modem. Via wireless 802.11ac provides enough backwards compatibility for our needs. I paid $80 with shipping. It replaced an older Acer router we used that had 100 Mbps switch ports.
