I am very glad I purchased this modem. Not only is it fast, it is very easy to set up. The range is good but not great. It does everything we need it to do. Highly recommended.

Originally I had mistook this router for another one I had seen that I was going to get. This one was more expensive then what I had wanted to spend. But I killed over it and decided it was probably worth it to get. And IT WAS!
This router is crushing it! PS5, Xbox, PS4, 2 laptops and all kinds of streaming and phones connected and I get amazing speeds! HATS OFF to Nighthawk because this router is superb. Really easy to set up and compatible with Xfinity. I'm upset Xfinity is charging me more to use my own router now that I have an awesome one. But still it's Worth it's price big time. Yes I recommend it

I can connect any and every device neded with minimal slowdown. Built in security protocols are better than expected but I still utilize additional. Price paid was worth it but hoping the industry does not change requirements any time soon.

Significantly better coverage than the internet provider’s Wi-Fi router. Super easy to setup when using the phone app. The armor feature is pretty neat, scans my network for vulnerabilities and actively blocks bad sites too. Has plenty of features I’m looking forward to using too like the VPN. Overall I’m very happy with the device.

Love the Netgear AX2700

Before I purchased this, I have a Netgear router connected to an Arris Modem. I wanted to upgrade so I went with an Arris G36 modem but that was so confusing and I spent about 6 hours between Saturday and Sunday talking to Xfinity trying to get it connected. I tried pinging it but could not connect. So, I went to Best Buy who graciously accepted the return, and I bought a Netgear AX2700 router modem and let me say I love it. I did not even have to call or talk to Xfinity. I followed a few easily described steps in their setup manual and I had it connected with Xfinity within 5 Minutes or less. The Nighthawk ax2700 connected so easy and the speed within the TVs and computers run flawlessly without any delays. Netgear makes a nice router that's affordable and secure and easy to connect. And there help line is open 24hours which is so nice. Thank you

Reliable router with improved streaming.

I recently purchased this router/modem to replace my old Netgear router/modem, which was nine years old. So far, I've encountered no major issues, aside from a minor connection hiccup that was mostly due to operator error.
The most noticeable improvement over my old router is the streaming quality. The setup process was straightforward. I accessed the router by entering routerlogin.net, 192.168.0.1, or 192.168.1.0 into my web browser. The Spectrum website appeared during setup, where I had to enter the MAC address. It then offered an option to create an account or download an app for easy access and control, which was a very straightforward process. However, I once forgot a character when creating the password, but a call to customer service resolved the issue. The customer service experience was excellent, with the agent going the extra mile to help me set up.
The quality of service has been great, especially for using internet phone/video services to contact family overseas.
This router displays a unique password on the device itself, enhancing security.
There's no need to disable Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol and assign static addresses to your devices with this router.
It offers an open VPN option.
I wouldn't recommend purchasing the cheapest modem available, as it could lead to compromised speeds and security.
For your setup, you won't need a switch, as this router/modem combo already functions effectively as one.
Overall, this device is easy to set up and works well. While it may lack some advanced features found in routers like Juniper, I believe the price is fair considering its performance. I would definitely recommend it.

Great router. Previous router went out during my kids online schooling, and I knew I wanted speed and a steady connection. Installation was simple. Streams very smoothly with no lags. 2 gaming consoles, 5 smart TVs, cells (surfing and streaming TV shows), and 2 desktops operate all at the same time.

Was having problems with my local internet company's garbage router/modem combo. Bought this in hopes of getting rid of my ping issues and other problems I was having. So far it's worked exceptionally well and I don't have a regret at all about my purchase. It has a great app that is easy to use also.

I am very satisfied with the NETGEAR Nighthawk AX2700 WiFi Cable Modem/Router purchased from Best Buy. When the Internet Service Provider technician came into the house to check the internet connectivity with the outside world, he mentioned that I've made a good choice with the purchase. Personally, I also think it was a good purchase because the performance is much better than what I previously had.

I live with my family, 5 total people constantly using the internet whether it be streaming or gaming. I game all of the time and before I bought this product I would lag CONSTANTLY, even after upgrading the internet. What I realized was the xfinity modem router we rented could not handle the amount of internet usage by all of us all at once. So I bought this hoping it would fix the issue and it definitely did. I have not lagged ONCE since I bought this product and my download speeds are insane. It is worth the purchase 100%.

Powerful dual band router/modem combo reaches all the dead spots in our 2-story house (2k sq ft). Set up was pretty easy, app tracks all devices and shows which band is allocated and wifi strength. Old security cameras needed a power reboot to connect but work fine. Noticeable wifi speed boost. $$$ but worth it.

The cable connection is fast as lightning the WiFi is mediocre. The app is very nice being able to control the modem with your phone. The entire setup is easy to use even for non computer savvy people. Still worth buying over leasing.

I recently upgraded from the AC1900 to this one after 5 years. Netgear has always been my go-to for network equipment in my home and this did not disappoint. My old router was starting to struggle to keep up with more devices being added as my kids have grown up and gotten their own. This handles our 10 devices with ease. Having the DOCSIS 3.1 modem built in also means I was able to upgrade our speed to a multi-gig plan. With the higher speeds and the AX specification, our network has never been faster. I would definitely recommend this product for families who want to keep things fast with reliable connections.

Purchase new WiFi router so the garage EV charger and Tesla would “talk” with phone app. The increase in speed, connectivity, stability and power has exceeded expectations. WiFi connected apps on different devices that have never updated have now been updated due to speed and broadcast reach. The extended range and speed has been stunning. Should have upgrade frim my old, cheap router years ago!

Super easy to set up. I have cox internet and did have to call them at one point to register the modem number. It was 1130 pm but i was able to speak with a representative. I followed all the instructions and in no time i was enjoying super fast speeds. I like the ease of having both the modern and router in a single combo less cords. And the netgear app allows you to check the internet speed easily. And control it with guests or children all through the app. Should have bought one sooner

Upgraded my internet to 1GB download so I had to upgrade my modem/router. This was my pick. It was fast and easy to install. The app is easy to use. The wifi is fast and there aren’t any dead zones anymore. Highly recommend.
