Longtime Linksys router user; they are reliable and easy to manage. It was time to move up to WiFi 6 and have a router that could take advantage of higher-speed cable Internet access. This was a budget-priced Linksys WiFi 6 router but works very well for us.

Like the modem we purchased in 2017, our prior router was also purchased then and due for an update. This one was well worth the money.
Only issue was on our end, definitely user error on renaming the network and resetting the password. Lol.
All in all, it took about 5 minutes from opening the box to having the new router up and running, and that included unhooking ridiculously dusty old cables.

Great upgrade and update to the wifi 6

I got this updated router that has wifi 6 because i spilled water on my old router that has router 5. .
And the processor is actually faster and there is less lag online gaming and the connection link up is better. Wifi actually works faster on my cell phone. I did a speed test with my old router..before i spilled water on it.. And it topped out at 100mbs. But my phone works faster with 140mbs. Now which is great because i got the 50$ plan from spectrum of 300mb but my old phone still cant go fast as that.. But its nice to know.. My phone.. T.v and ps5 gamint improved.. When i update my phone.. I hope i also get faster processes.. There is better ones out there for wayyy more money.. But if you have an old router.. With wifi 3 , 4, 5 than this might be a good upgrade. There is faster ones but for 200$+ ? I am happy to tag along to a bit outdated technology but great price.. Plus spectrum 300mbs only really requires a router than can handle that.. This handlea 1000mbs. But i dont got fiber ..so it does handle the 300mbps with ease.. Because the router is not fully loaded. So i can pay spectrum more in the future or hope i can get att fiber.

Performance

Good performance, but unstable.

Overall good performance. However, some of my devices get disconnected every couple of days and I have to reboot it. Another quirk is that the self signed certificate for TLS/HTTPS connects gets regenerated every time a hard reboot is done (i.e. using the physical switch). A soft reboot (i.e. via the web UI) doesn't affect the certificate.

The sleek, slim design fits very well into the location of where we placed this box. The best feature was the dual-band. Having the ability to select the speed, 2.4 or 5, was the reason for this purchase.

This router/wifi box has been working flawlessly with zero problems. The only thing easier with NetGear is seeing a list of NAT clients that are using your WiFi password.
The function is buried here in Status> Local Network> DHCP Client Table>
As long as it works...

Only worked for a day or two, now won't even connect to the internet despite restarting this and my modem several times. I even tried factory reset and this didn't work. Still get orange/yellow light for internet light instead of the blue light. Also can't even connect to config page (192.168.1.1 or myrouter.local). DON'T BUY THIS ROUTER or you'll just be wasting your time and money.

Does the job well. I get pretty fast Wi-Fi speeds. Sometimes it drops out and starts blinking orange. Have to turn it off then back on. But hasn’t happened lately maybe they did a software patch update.

set up and everything else was great but this router does not give you access to smart wifi so you cannot see the list of devices on your network. not sure why they left this feature out. seems silly.
