    Excellent router, works perfectly for 1gig internet and is able to handle all of my devices perfectly. Armor service was a little annoying but goes away in a month.

    Simple to setup and offers amazing speeds and coverage of the entire house for every kind of WiFi devise... from old 802.11b to the newest WiFi standard that only a few manufactures have just started putting in high-end laptops and smartphones. This router has been stable and reliable so far, and I love how it notifies me every time a new device connects to my network. I also like how it consolidates all of the different WiFi bandwidth's onto one broadcast name and intelligently switches what kind of WiFi is used with each device depending on device type and distance. Providing the best connection possible. It's a slick WiFi router and compliments a fiber modem really well.

    Insane performance!

    I went into this wanting to get a mesh wifi system. I live in an 1800 sf slab home. I've always had issues with signal strength from upstairs to downstairs. We upgraded our Spectrum to 1 gig service. Downstairs, with my old Nighthawk router, i was pulling a 400mbs download with 30mbs upload, which is not slow, but some buffering would occur on our streaming platforms. It took maybe 10 minutes to set up, get firmware updates, and sign in to all my devices. My new speeds from downstairs are insane. 1.02 gig per secons with 40mbs upload! What a absolute beast. How can it pull in more than what im paying for through Spectrum. Its amazing. Do not hesitate with this router!

    Great little router for an apartment

    A great router for apartment sized homes. Works with Mac, Linux, and Windows. Works on all 2.4 ghz, 5 ghz, and 6 ghz bands. I verified that can connect to my LG TV (5 ghz), Sonos soundbar (2.4 ghz), old laptop (2.4 ghz), new laptop (6 ghz). I can stream video at 4K and play online games without any hiccups. The band steering feature works well. Band steering lets the router seamlessly switch from the 5 or 6 ghz band (close range) to the 2.4 ghz band (far range). The default router that my ISP gave me was terrible and could not do band steering. It would "get stuck" on a poor band and your device would lag forever. Setup was quite easy. Just make sure to restart the router if it doesn't connect to your ISP on the first try. Be patient and let the power drain completely. Comes with a Cat-5e flat cable (2m length). The router does not get hot and looks minimalistic. Keeps the wife/girlfriend happy.

    I haven't had the router for too long but so far it is amazing, at first I had trouble getting it working at first but after giving a call to Netgear support they were patient and helped me until I made sure everything was working. The speed and range is really good to the point I can get the full 1gb download speed through multiple walls in my room through WiFi. Keep in mind that to get high speeds with the router your device has to be Wifi 6E/7 to use the 6ghz Band, and it isn't worth it if you have speeds less than Gigabit or high.

    Netgear BE9300 Router

    This Netgear BE9300 tri-band router has so far been pretty good. The 6.0ghz frequency band is EXTREMELY FAST if you are relatively near the router - (I pay for 800Mbps and I was able to hit 850 to 950Mbps on the 6.0 band within approximately 20 feet from the router). The range of the 2.4 and 5.0 are both pretty good - I'm around 70 feet away and the connection is solid. The speed is slower - ranges from 250Mbsps up to around as much as 500Mbps on the 5.0ghz band.

    I had a Spectrum router/modem combo which se causing the PS5 store and library game images to fail to load due to some weird DNS settings. Buying this router helped fix this issue as well as given a notciable increase in speed for my 1GBPS connection. This thing is a beast.

    Happy with my purchase and future proofed as well. With almost all tech needing a wireless network this handles it with ease. I can have an about 25 units running the WiFi and have no lag. So easy to use would definitely recommend.

    The product works well and is lightning fast for everyday use. I did run into a couple issues after setting it up however. First the provided Ethernet cable did not work with my ISP's modem leading to a process of trial and error before resorting to using a lower tier cable. Secondly, the router and app came default with Netgear's "Armor" feature that acts as sort of firewall that blocks certain connections frequently which led to complete loss of WiFi connectivity for a few minutes. I ended up disabling the feature altogether and haven't had disconnections issues since. Overall the Nighthawk router works very well and is quite fast compared to their older products. The app makes managing the router simple and user-friendly.

    Blazing fast internet. I’m paying for 1gb of internet, but I always felt like it was lagging. The reason I started looking at diff internet routers was that I was living in a 1200 sq feet house (1 story) and I noticed that I couldn’t get connection at the other side of the house. I called my provider and the suggested I looked at a wifi extender Story short, I upgraded my internet router, and the connectivity issues were solved! Super fast and easy to setup!

    I've been very happy with an older Nighthawk router. We updated our Internet access to 2 gigabit and this one swapped in place of our old one with no issues at all. The Netgear Nighthawk app is great and adding a subscription for their Armor network monitoring and protection offers real peace of mind. Highly recommended by an old network engineer, me!

    Fantastic router, able to handle a lot of data and devices at once. The range with the 2.4 and 5ghz is quite large so you dont need to run multiple APs in the house, but the function exsists if needed. Love the smart connect function to allow your device to switch band frequency depending on strength. Overall would buy again

    Bought this to replace my old Netgear nighthawk router and so far its been a noticeable improvement the setup is a bit troublesome as they recommend you use the mobile app for setup the app walks you through the setup some steps take long just need to be patient but once its up and running it works great.

    Solid upgrade in performance over my Nighthawk IP 5 router. Speeds have been great. The case feels like cheap hollow plastic so I think they've cut some corners in their build quality. Unfortunate for the cost of this router. App setup is terrible. Ended up adding it to my network and configuring the old fashion way.

    Powerful router

    A router is one of those things you never really consider upgrading. As long as your Internet is working, then you’re good. But these things need upgrading every few years. My old router needed rebooting multiple times a week, and after struggling with this issue for about six months, it dawned on me that my old router was just worn out. The Nighthawk RS300 was like an answer to prayer. It’s fast and it’s powerful enough for my small business needs, including running my security cameras, copier, computers, televisions and guest wifi. Like I said, you don’t know you need a new one until you need a new one.
