New router
Easy to set up, doesn't seem to be as fast as my previous Netgear router because streaming lags. It would be easy to blame it on how many devices are attached but I live by myself.

Nighthawk R7000 Router
This router was easy to install and fully setup and configure. There are simple built in tools in the software that make the process a breeze for setup. I was able to get everything ready in about ten minutes along with easily updating the firmware. I find that the added built in security features add extensive safeguards to protect all devices you connect to the network as it will instantly scan for malicious hardware attached.
The overall speed that this hardware is capable of was fantastic as I was getting near 700mbps download and upload speeds from my ISP. The overall coverage was extensive and able to reach the 2200 sqft. of our home. I would highly recommend this product for home and small business needs.

R7000 dream installation
The Netgear R7000 was a dream to install using the Nighthawk phone app. This model has up to date firmware. There are many settings for overall configuration and control of the router making it very flexible for our needs. Three antennas give broad wi-fi coverage in a 3 story house basement.

5G wifi not working
I wanted to like this router, but the 5GHz Wi-Fi is garbage. It constantly disconnects or disappears completely from my devices, forcing me to reboot the router multiple times a day. I’ve spent hours trying every fix online—changing channels, factory resets, firmware updates—but nothing works. It is completely unreliable.

Great router
I was able to easily set up the two WiFi points (2.4 and 5 ghz) inside my home. The security for this router is fantastic and adds a second layer of security.

Good product that needs improvement
I had a lot of trouble to access the router management with the Nighthawk app. Also, I wanted to install VPN client and had a lot of challenges. Native VPN client would have been very helpful.

Excellent Router
The Netgear R7000 router is the best router I have used yet. It has never had a problem connecting wireless devices. I have bought newer routers that were NOT Netgear, but they had problems connecting 2.4GHz only items to them. My Netgear router doesn't have that problem. I have found out that they combined both 5GHz and 2.4GHz together so that only 5GHz is the only one listed. Even if i split them in settings, they still won't connect to the 2.4GHz. So I still use my Netgear router. So many things still use 2.4GHz wireless only so I won't be changing anytime soon.
Thank You Netgear.
Keep up the great work.

poor
No QR code to scan on the back, can't get the app to work. Who would have guessed when buying you needed an app. I have 2 nether products and would not recommend them. Still can't get it to work, no followup by email that is helpful. Very complicated to set up, over my head, even with support on the phone.

Gets the job done
I've been using the NETGEAR Nighthawk AC1900 (R7000) for a while, and it’s been rock solid. The WiFi speed and stability are great, especially on the 5GHz band, and setup was quick and easy. It handles multiple devices smoothly, and the USB ports are a nice bonus for sharing drives. The only downsides are its bulky size and slightly dated interface, plus it’s not WiFi 6, so it’s showing its age a bit. Still, for a WiFi 5 router, it’s powerful, reliable, and great value for the price.
