What customers say
This range extender delivers excellent speed and significantly expands Wi-Fi coverage, transforming dead zones into strong signal areas, especially when integrated with Nighthawk mesh systems for seamless roaming. Users report transformative results in large homes once the system is operational. However, the primary point of friction is the initial setup. Many customers experience considerable frustration during configuration, particularly when pairing with non-Netgear routers. While performance is powerful upon successful deployment, the recurring difficulty during installation slightly tempers the overall positive reception. Stability is generally good, though minor firmware adjustments could improve long term reliability.
