Great product and fast speeds
Great product and fast speeds. Use the web interface to setup router. I have Spectrum 300mb and I am getting 500mb from the router to wireless devices using one band.

Easy config and install
I especially like the network traffic meter and my devices gained considerable speed. The only complaint is that Netgear does not supply any sort of wall mount bracket. Once the power cable and network cables are plugged in, the router will not stand up on a flat surface. Very annoying. I 3D printed a wall mount on my own but it would have been nice for Netgear to spend an extra 50 cents and provide one. Heaven knows they collect enough $$$.

Happy with performance, not happy my "new" router had obviously been opened.
Honestly, I regret not upgrading sooner. My 800 sq. ft. condo is framed with steel studs/thick walls and my old router signal was struggling to punch through to the front room (my office). 5 GHz was non-exist and the 2.4 Mbps was unstable mess. I swapped in this router today and went from getting 30 Mbps download speed in my office to 200 Mbps. Set up was mostly quick with the longest part being the firmware updates, which only took 15 minutes. The app to manage the router is a nice touch, though I don't know how I feel about a Netgear account being required to use it...company's got to store that information somewhere. The range I suspect would be awesome in a normal apartment with dry wall construction because it's punching through my wifi-hating walls like a beast. I can't wait for my new modem and tower wifi adapter to arrive. The router alone was a stellar improvement, but I think the addition of those two will take full advantage of the upgrade to wifi 7. My only point of frustration is that the router box had clearly been opened and the router removed. The protective plastic bag cover that goes over the router itself in the package was gone and the router looked like it had been wiped down at one point judging by the streaks on the outside of the router. Does this impact the functionality? No. However, I did pay for a NEW router. Some obviously opened this one and used it. New does not mean "looks like new," it means box is unopened and the equipment has never been hooked up. I'm happy to keep this router, but the seriously...the seller should reduce my charge to that of a "used" piece of a equipment. I risked it buying from Amazon, but this is going to be the last risk I take with networking equipment. Too many knock offs, too much bait and switch.

COST effective, great coverage and speeds greater then most residental internets
The Netgear Nighthawk family has been my router(s) for years with great consistent service. Last month a notice of my current wifi6 device was leaving support service (auto updates etc) and it was time to move on. After a search of current Nighthawk offering (lots of pressure to get the BEST) I settled on the RS 100, quite a ways down on the family. I do not have internet service coming in that is greater then 200 MB/sec so buying a 1G+ router is just spending money for NO improvement. I was worried about the range - I have a larger home (>2600sq ft) including a critical Solar system that needs constant Wi-FI access that is in the garage at the longest distance from the router and lots of walls. Result - EXCELLENT - strong levels throughout the house and sufficient power to the far garage wall! What I did MISS, that I didn't check (assumed present) was the NO USB port for a local network storage. That should be made clear (or just put them on all!). A tip - check the signal strength (at all areas) while MOVING the router. - twist , and tip it. I have a basement and an upstairs bedrooms. The configuration that was significantly best was having it laying down (long length horz) and 'facing' the long length of the house. I would definitely recommend it for most all residential homes -
