"The router though, I really wanted the ability to manage the devices connected to it and prioritize certain devices and applications. The one I have handles things the way I wanted."

"I had a Netgear Nighthawk router that ended up getting a bug in it after a firmware upgrade. ... The bug didn't allow me to filter by MAC address. ... I had to end up actually editing the HTML of the router page to get it to work. ... It was a known issue on Netgear's website for years, but they never fixed it."
"I had a Netgear Nighthawk system that would randomly start spazzing out and start dropping packets on the wireless network and need a full power cycle every once in a while."
"The last Nighthawk I had constantly resulted in "Connected, No internet" for too many devices."

"The 7000 series no longer receives security updates, and I don’t think the firmware is supported any more."
Rex_Luscus 1.0I’ve had absolutely no problems running pi-hole and unbound with a D7000 (the R7000 with integrated DSL modem) for years and years. The 7000 series no longer receives security updates, and I don’t think the firmware is supported any more. I moved to Asus modem/ routers, you can replace the OS with open source firmware and still keep all the bundled Trend micro security services.
Connect-Classic-1894 0.2I did and it completely fixed my internet which plagued me for years. I had a 10 year old nighthawk modem/router combo that I hardwired into and I experienced constant lag and rubberbanding. I upgraded to an asus router and an arris modem maybe 6 months ago. I also upped my internet speed for good measure. Now I have the best connection I’ve ever experienced and have absolutely no issues. I paid a pretty penny for the luxury though ngl.
promaster9500 0.0I dont know about this model but fuck Netgeat Nighthawk. I owned a different one few years ago that was supposed to be a a high spec version, and it caused me infinite problems, which all disappeared when I bought a different one.
Academic-Swimming919 0.0I agree. I have tried numerous Netgear products, going back to a PCMCIA card, and all of them have had problems. The last Nighthawk I had constantly resulted in "Connected, No internet" for too many devices.
Accomplished-Ruin945 0.0I moved from a Netgear Nighthawk router and extender to an Orbi network... Well worth it to me.
AppropriateDevice84 0.0They were all WiFi 6. I used a Nokia linksys Atlas, a TPLink one and a Netgear Nighthawk. Except for the Nokia (wifi5), none of them even came close to the signal penetration I got from the GLinet flint 2.
aztekca 0.0Yeah their speeds are terrible man! I swapped out to a nighthawk router for $300 at Best Buy has been worth it
Bananaland_Man 0.0they are awesome on a deal, and netgear nighthawk are fantastic... not that thing you linked...
CapRoyal2192 0.0May mga spare Netgear Nighthawk ako na ginamit lang for testing. I can sell to you if need mo for a very cheap price. Dual band and of course gigabit ports na plus stronger wifi signals.
ChickenEmbarrassed10 0.0Second this. I've got a Netgear Nighthawk router too and have been very happy with it.
