If you need a fast router, and don't mind having an external modem for your actual Internet connection — and you're happy to set up the network in the first place — the Nighthawk R7000 fills that role perfectly adequately. It looks good, runs reliably, an...
Stand-out design, Excellent short-range speed, Useful mobile features
Long-range performance wasn't great
Netgear's Nighthawk router offers an impressive array of features and, most importantly, it serves up very quick 802.11ac speeds. It wasn't great in our long-range tests, though. Nevertheless, consider picking it up if you're in the process of implementin...
Well... where to start on my final thoughts? I know! Build quality. Here I found no issues with the R7000; the plastics are durable, all the solder joints look really good on the PCB, and everything is shielded and heatsinked appropriately. The overall s...
The all-new Netgear Nighthawk AC1900 Smart Wi-Fi Router offers stellar performance on the 5GHz band, and an excellent set of features. It's also relatively affordable for a top-notch home networking device
The router's ridiculously bulky and its performance on the 2.4GHz, though fast, is slower than its top competitor. Its Web interface doesn't offer access to its parental control feature, and the Netgear Genie mobile app doesn't work over the Internet
The Netgear is expensive, but earns its $200 asking price with incredibly fast speeds and useful features....

Summarizing the results of the measured speeds tests, we can see that on the 2,4GHz frequency, the Fritz!Box 3490 is the fastest router showing speeds of 128 Mbit/s on average. Second is the DIR-879 by D-Link (average of 125 Mbit/s) and the Linksys EA7500...
Are you looking for an 802.11ac router? Then you'll be able to choose from a plethora of routers, since pretty much all 802.11ac models that have been released since 2012, are still readily available. This does imply that there hasn't been a lot of chan...
Abstract: So I decided to attack the problem and try the most powerful router I could find. I alighted on this Netgear one partly because of its scary name, its Star Wars shape and its trio of butch-looking antennae. But also because the Nighthawk is designed for g...

High 802.11ac transfer speeds, Simultaneous 5GHz2.4GHz, Easy setup, USB 3.0 port for addin storage, USB 2.0 printer support, Impressive QoS options for consumer market, Decent setup software with heaps of options, Weird and wonderful styling (if you like
Expensive, Poor 2.4GHz 802.11n performance, mainly because of the tiny A6100 USB adapter, Takes a while to save changes in setup, Limited appeal for professional market, Weird and wonderful styling (if you have conventional tastes).
The real world tests used in this review deliver results that fall short of the manufacturer's claims, however the bandwidth with a Mac Pro 2013 was very good. On our PC, the Netgear A6100 USB adapter undoubtedly plays its part with the slightly disappoin...
