Very fast wifi; Easy to install; Works with Cox; Superb Customer Support
A little bit larger (taller) than I expected but it has a very small footprint especially considering it has replaced two pieces of old equipment. I have one computer wired to it via ethernet cable and another connected wireless.Getting the computers set up and on the internet was very easy. (My internet provider is cox. Was able to set up the new modem with Cox on-line. I set up the modem/router; Connected the wired computer; Computer immediately recognized the internet connection; When I went online, I was automatically taken to the Cox website and set up the new modem with them.)However I did have a problem with getting the modem/router to recognize my network printer that is also wired to the modem/router via ethernet. I went to Netgear's chat support and a wonderful woman spent an hour and a half helping me to get the printer working. Turns out it wasn't a problem at all with the router/modem. It was a setting on my printer that needed to be changed. The fact that she helped me resolve the situation when it had nothing to do with their equipment was way above and beyond the call of duty that I normally expect with customer service now-a-days.My phone (Samsung S5) and tablet (Samsung) connected easily. My phone is actually able to connect using the 5G capability of this modem/router. My tablet apparently doesn't have the 5G capability but connects with 2.4G.The computer that is connected via wifi also doesn't support 5G. I have to go buy a new wifi card if I want the 5G. However, I don't think I will. I'm getting plenty of download speed with the 2.4G. I went from a download speed of 11.90 Mb/s to 31.94 Mb/s. This is a huge increase and I can feel it. The speed of the computer that is wired to the modem/router didn't change (download speed right around 33 Mb/s). This leads me to believe that Cox has limited my download speed to about 33 Mb/s with my current plan despite them saying I should be getting 50 Mb/s (but that's an issue I have to work out with Cox). In any event, I don't see any point in buying a 5G wifi card for my computer to only possibly get an extra 2 Mb/s more speed.All in all... Very satisfied and I highly recommend!

My main desktop speed tests at 353Mbps!
Best home router I ever owned by leaps and bounds and then some!I had my hesitations buying this: what if the router part is good but the modem part is bad, no external antenna etc. I like to limit the ways something can go wrong because I've seen every problem a router can have but let me tell you I cannot come up with anything negative to say about this one and that's saying something.I am signed up for 300Mbps Internet with TWC and my main desktop speed tests at 353Mbps on a CAT6 cable with this modem/router and the wifi means business too. Even my galaxy S6 phone clocks in at 168Mbps and that's a phone! 4K Netflix on wifi upstairs? No problem! This is very exciting and I can't tell you how thrilled I am to put wifi problems behind me for what looks to be a long time to come. I should note that I got these results after configuring the router to the optimal channel which was easy to do with the built in software. I like it that they give me extra control with advanced options but they also include everything other users really need in a basic options panel to which it is defaulted.Aside from the blazing fast and consistent speed results which is what a modem/router is really all about it also includes the most effective parental control software I have ever used. I would highly recommend this to any parent because you get the unrestricted power on your own devices with a relatively safe environment on anything your kid can access and they could completely format/reinstall the OS on their PC or phone without losing the protection.Edit: Okay so I did come up with one negative thing and that is it seems to be incompatible with my old black widow (external hard drive interface) but that is not all too suprising. I will get a new external drive interface to try it with then update.
